Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Carpal tunnel syndrome is the entrapment of the median nerve. A carpal tunnel repair frees the nerve from surrounding structures and restores sensation and function.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Carbon dioxide laser, holmium:YAG, and neodymium:YAG are examples of lasers that can be used in some orthopedic procedures. Although they are not common in the orthopedic specialty, they can be useful in confined areas such as arthroscopy to minimize bleeding.
