5 Key Takeaways

• 1

  Mini-incision carpal tunnel release using the ProMIS kit resulted in faster early pain relief compared to open carpal tunnel release.

• 2

  Patients undergoing mini-incision release reported lower pain scores and better functional outcomes at 2 weeks and 1 month.

• 3

  The mini-incision technique had a shorter operative time, averaging about 14 minutes compared to 22 minutes for open release.

• 4

  No major complications were reported in either group during the 2-month follow-up, indicating a similar short-term risk profile.

• 5

  Further research with larger, multicenter studies is needed to assess long-term outcomes and confirm early benefits of the mini-incision approach.
