Evaluation of partial diagnostic criteria of median nerve
Parameter | Diagnostic criteria | Sensitivity | Specificity | Positive predictive value | Negative predictive value |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
CSA | ≥0.1 cm2 | 92% | 86% | 91% | 88% |
FR3 | ≥3.32 | 33.3% | 88% | 81% | 47.5% |
D | ≥0.195 cm | 82.5% | 69.7% | 80% | 73% |
CSA: cross-sectional area of median nerve on the postular bone plane; FR3: D/d on the hamate bone hook plane; D: transverse diameter of median nerve on the postular bone.
