Preliminary research has shown that delivering a brief period of electrical stimulation following nerve repair promotes nerve healing and functional recovery. This study is investigating the use of a single dose of therapeutic electrical stimulation to promote nerve healing. The therapy is delivered as part of the surgical intervention to address compression of the ulnar nerve at the elbow, commonly referred to as Cubital Tunnel Syndrome.
