Summary

The purpose of the study is to measure the outcomes of a standard care, an ultrasound guided mini-invasive percutaneous procedure, performed on recent stroke patients on reduces pain, increases function \& quality of life

The primary objective of the project is to reduce shoulder and/or knee pain in patients who have had a stroke so that they can more readily engage in rehabilitation.

Secondary objectives are to reduce analgesic medications, increase independence and improve range of motion, to promote non-drug treatment measures in the medical toolkit, and to include an interdisciplinary care team in patient selection for interventions.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Cryoneurolysis

This is on observational study. All participants are already candidate for cryoneurolysis. Cryoneurolysis uses a cold probe to generate an ice ball, which initiates Wallerian Degeneration, a process where axon is destroyed but the epineurium and perineurium remain intact. The treated nerve is able to regenerate over time due to this preserved tube.
