Summary

Different types of pain may be present in patients with hand osteoarthritis, including nociceptive pain and non-nociceptive pain. This makes adequate pain treatment difficult, and thus new treatment options are needed. To this end, this trial will evaluate the effect of transcutaneous pulsed radiofrequency for the treatment of hand osteoarthritis pain.
