Quantitative noninvasive techniques

Reference no: EM13966406

Quantitative noninvasive techniques are needed for routinely assessing symptoms of peripheral neuropathies, such as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The article A Gap Detection Tactility Test for Sen- sory De cits Associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (Ergonomics, 1995: 2588-2601) reported on a test that involved sensing a tiny gap in an otherwise smooth surface by probing with a nger; this functionally resembles many work-related tactile activities, such as detecting scratches or surface de- fects. When nger probing was not allowed, the sample average gap detection threshold for m = 8 normal subjects was 1.71 mm, and the sample standard deviation was .53; for n = 10 CTS subjects, the sample mean and sample standard deviation were 2.53 and .87, respectively. Does this data suggest that the true average gap detection threshold for CTS subjects exceeds that for normal subjects? State and test the relevant hypotheses using a signi cance level of .01.
