Abstract
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common peripheral mononeuropa thy and often requires one or more therapies including surgery. The re sults of electrodiagnostic (EDX) studies have been found to be highly sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of CTS. This document defines the standards, guidelines, and options for EDX studies of CTS based o n a critical review of the literature.
