Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Reduction of pain after surgery for decompression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel in humans by visual analogue scale. It is expected that the visual analogue scale present lower values in each session.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Reduction in the values of the Boston questionnaire and visual analog scale and the absence of nervous injury on physical examination.
