High-Voltage Pulsed Radiofrequency of the Lumbar Dorsal Root Ganglion for the Treatment of Chronic Lumbar Radicular and Neuropathic Pain; A Prospective, Doble-blinded and Randomized Controlled Trial


Sponsor

Consorci Sanitari de Terrassa

Enrollment

98 participants

Start Date

Feb 20, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The management of chronic lumbar radicular and neuropathic pain is complex and the treatment success rates are low. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) has been described in these cases. In order to determine whether high-voltage PRF show better results than PRF a prospective, doble-blinded and randomized study is conducted in patients with chronic lumbar radicular and neuropathic pain.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Interventions

PROCEDURERadiofrequency

Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) is a nonablative pain treatment that uses radiofrequency current in short high-voltage bursts, resulting in interruption of nociceptive afferent pathways. This study aims to show how the variation in radiofrequency voltage applied to the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) affects the treatment of neuropathic pain.
