Do Socioeconomic Factors Affect Symptom Duration and Disease Severity at Presentation for Cubital Tunnel Syndrome?

Economic distress is not associated with self-reported symptom duration, time from presentation to surgery, or presenting severity of cubital tunnel syndrome. White patients presented with shorter self-reported symptom duration. Insurance type was associated with delay from presentation to surgery. Older age and male sex were risk factors for more clinically severe disease at presentation.
