Abstract

Background: CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME (CTS) is entrapment of median nerve in carpal tunnel of the wrist. The PREVALENCE of CTS related to PREGNANCY and non-pregnancy is unknown in some countries such as IRAN. The main aim of this study was to determine the PREVALENCE of CTS in WOMEN of Boyerahmad Township located in South-West part of IRAN.Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive analytic study was done since February 2010 to January 2011 in Obstetrics and Gynecology clinics in 2656 non-pregnant and 1508 pregnant WOMEN. The WOMEN that had clinical symptoms of CTS performed standard electro diagnostic techniques for rule in or rule out of CTS.Results: The PREVALENCE of CTS in pregnant and non- pregnant WOMEN was 3.4and 2.3 percent respectively. The PREVALENCE of CTS in all WOMEN was 2.7%. Overall, 51 pregnant WOMEN had CTS that 59.4% had mild, 18.8 % had moderate and 21.9% had severe CTS. Sixty-one non-pregnant WOMEN had CTS that 73.6 %had mild, 20.8 %t had moderate and 5.6 % had severe CTS.Conclusion: Although the PREVALENCE of CTS in IRANian PREGNANCY is higher than non-pregnancy WOMEN conservative treatment is safe and more effective.
