Active, self-directed electrical stimulation of the median nerve
Electrical stimulation of the median nerve (12 Hz, pulse width 200µs), initially at the threshold needed to see movement of the right thumb with stimulation. After initial training with the device and education in the rationale for suprathreshold stimulation, participants will choose timing and intensity of stimulation based on their momentary symptom severity and their experience with the treatment since the beginning of the study. Participant can choose right or left median nerve (we will suggest their nondominant hand to minimize interference with daily activities).
