title: Bionursing: carpal tunnel syndrome.
abstract: In this case, the nurse/midwife was quick to recognise the significance of the hand pain Lynn developed. She was aware of the risk of CTS in pregnancy. The nurse used her knowledge of the condition to probe for additional details and to test for clinical signs of the condition. This allowed for an early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
