About this study

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a prevalent condition, up to 9% in women and 0.6% in men. Surgical decompression in the most effective treatment. After surgery, approximately 1,8% of the patients develop a wound infection. Possibly, the type of sutures used can influence the prevalence of wound infection. In this RCT the incidence of infection is investigated between the use of absorbable versus non-absorbable sutures in carpal tunnel release.
