Tinel’s Sign for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome • PTProgress

SOLVED: 1.7. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Tests: Three commonly used tests for carpal tunnel syndrome are Tinel's sign, Phalen's test, and the nerve conduction velocity test. Tinel's sign and Phalen's test are both highly sensitive (0.97 and 0.92, respectively) and specific (0.91 and 0.88, respectively). The sensitivity and specificity of the nerve conduction velocity test are 0.93 and 0.87, respectively. Assume that the tests are independent. Calculate the sensitivity and specificity of a combined te
