Cryoneurolysis Versus Bipolar Radiofrequency Ablation of Genicular Nerves for Pain Relief in Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Ultrasound-guided cryoneurolysis: Patients will undergo ultrasound-guided cryoneurolysis
Bipolar radiofrequency ablation: Patients will undergo bipolar radiofrequency ablation
Study summary
This study aims to compare the reduction in knee pain between ultrasound-guided cryoneurolysis and bipolar radiofrequency ablation (RFA), as measured by the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) at predefined follow-up intervals.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Degree of pain — 6 months after procedure
Each patient will be instructed about postoperative pain assessment with the numeric rating scale (NRS) score. NRS (0 represents "no pain" while 10 represents "the worst pain imaginable").
