Evaluation of the diagnostic utility of the oxyneurography (ONG) in diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).
ONG examination of the median nerve was performed in 260 patients. The results were compared with nerve conduction studies and clinical provocative tests.
ONG index greater than or equal to 62% was found in 95.18% of the patients with no or minimal Nerve Conduction Study (NCS) changes (1-2 according to the Padua classification) but only in 1.69% of the patients with advanced NCS changes (Padua 3-6). The sensitivity and specificity of the ONG study i.e. 95.18% and 98.31%, respectively, were compared with standard clinical tests: Tinel sign (61.45% and 14.69%), Phalen test (34.94% and 45.20%), reverse Phalen test (81.93% and 34.46%) and carpal compression test (91.57% and 72.32%).
ONG index lower than 62% was indicative of CTS. ONG has higher sensitivity and specificity then other clinical tests and it is an accurate and reliable method for the diagnosis of CTS.
Oxyneurography is a non-invasive, fast and safe study which may play role in the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome.
评估氧神经图(ONG)在诊断腕管综合征(CTS)中的诊断效用。
对 260 例患者进行正中神经 ONG 检查。将结果与神经传导研究和临床激发试验进行比较。
ONG 指数大于或等于 62%见于 95.18%无或仅有轻微神经传导研究(NCS)改变(根据帕多瓦分类为 1-2)的患者,但仅见于 1.69% NCS 改变晚期(帕多瓦 3-6)的患者。ONG 研究的敏感性和特异性分别为 95.18%和 98.31%,与标准临床测试进行比较:Tinel 征(61.45%和 14.69%)、Phalen 试验(34.94%和 45.20%)、反向 Phalen 试验(81.93%和 34.46%)和腕管压迫试验(91.57%和 72.32%)。
ONG 指数低于 62%提示 CTS。ONG 比其他临床测试具有更高的敏感性和特异性,是 CTS 诊断的一种准确可靠的方法。
氧神经图是一种非侵入性、快速和安全的研究方法,可能在诊断腕管综合征中发挥作用。
