Twenty studies (three randomized controlled trials, three prospective cohort studies, and 14 case series) met inclusion criteria, with a total of 1772 USCTR cases. The overall level of evidence was very low, with seven studies with at least moderate risk of bias. Thirteen studies exceeded the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire Symptom Severity Scale (BCTQ\u2010SS) and Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire Functional Status Scale (BCTQ\u2010FS), and six studies exceeded the MCID for the Quick Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder &amp; Hand (QDASH). Five studies reported statistically significant improvement in these functional outcome measures as early as the first week post\u2010procedure. A major complication occurred in one patient who developed suspected compartment syndrome, and minor complications were reported in 24 patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Based on very low level of evidence, early studies suggest that USCTR may be an effective treatment for CTS, with
