Nervmobilisering som fysioterapeutisk behandling vid karpaltunnelsyndrom / Neural mobilization as physiotherapeutic treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome

Arvidsson, Hanna, Norberg, Felicia January 2021 (has links)
Bakgrund: Karpaltunnelsyndrom är den vanligaste typen av perifera nervinklämningar och orsakas av att medianusnerven blir klämd i karpaltunneln. De symtom som kännetecknar karpaltunnelsyndrom är nattliga domningar och smärta i hand och fingrar.  Syfte: Att undersöka effekt och evidens för nervmobilisering som behandling vid karpaltunnelsyndrom.  Metod: Sökningar genomfördes i databaserna PudMed, PEDro, CINAHL, AMED och Scopus med målet att identifiera randomiserade kontrollerade studier där nervmobilisering som behandling vid karpaltunnelsyndrom undersökts. Inkluderade artiklar kvalitetsgranskades enligt PEDro och de med hög kvalitet evidensgraderades enligt GRADEstud.  Resultat: Nio studier inkluderades i översikten. I alla studier observerades en positiv effekt av nervmobilisering avseende symtom och/eller funktion och en signifikant skillnad sågs mellan grupperna i 7 av 9 studier. Sex av nio studier hade hög kvalitet och tre hade låg kvalitet enligt PEDro-skalan. Evidensgraderingen visade att nervmobilisering som behandling vid karpaltunnelsyndrom har måttligt hög tillförlitlighet (+++). Små studier med få deltagare resulterade i ett poängs avdrag för bristande precision. Slutsats: Nervmobilisering tycks ge positiva effekter på funktion och symtom vid karpaltunnelsyndrom och har enligt GRADEstud måttligt hög tillförlitlighet. Nervmobilisering kan ge effekt även på lång sikt och kan minska behovet av operation men fler större studier med god kvalitet behövs för att kunna bekräfta detta. Nyckelord: Carpal tunnel syndrome, CTS, neural mobilization, nerve gliding / Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common type of peripheral neuropathy caused by compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel. The condition is characterized by night time tingling and pain in the hand and fingers.  Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects and evidence of neural mobilization as a treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome.  Methods: Searches were made in the databases PubMed, PEDro, CINAHL, AMED and Scopus to try and find randomized controlled trials that investigated neural mobilization as treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome. All of the included articles were appraised by the PEDro-scale and the level of evidence was graded using GRADEstud.  Results: Nine studies were included in this review. In all of the included studies a positive effect could be seen by neural mobilization on symptoms and/or function with a significant difference between groups in seven out of the nine studies. Six out of the nine studies had high quality and three had low quality according to the PEDro-scale. The grading of evidence showed that neural mobilization as treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome has a moderately high level of evidence (+++). Few studies with few participants resulted in one point deduction for lack of precision. Conclusion: Neural mobilization could have positive effects on symptoms and function in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome and has a moderately high level of evidence according to GRADEstud. Neural mobilization may have positive effects long term and could reduce need for surgery but more high quality research is needed to confirm this. Key words: Carpal tunnel syndrome, CTS, neural mobilization, nerve gliding.
