    diagnostic criteria on testing for CTS
    • Margaret A Churcher, family physician

    Most plastic surgeons in Calgary require nerve conduction testing to be performed before considering surgery. I read the article with great interest and this agrees with the clinical reports and nerve conduction findings I often receive. Management is still a challenge though if surgical treatment is required since we need a positive test and the wait times are prolonged for the testing.

    I think this article will make me more confident to go with clinical diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome vs confirmation with nerve conduction studies.
