Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare three-point and six-point Genicular Nerve Radiofrequency Ablation (GNRFA) in adults with chronic knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The main question it aims to answer is whether six- target GNRFA technique is more efficacious than standard three-target GNRFA technique in managing the pain and function of KOA. Consented patients who respond to a diagnostic block will be randomly assigned to either three-point or six-point GNRFA. Researchers will compare pain and function in these two groups.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Radiofrequency ablation

Genicular radiofrequency ablation uses thermal energy to percutaneously create lesions in neural tissues of the genicular nerves that innervate the anterior knee capsule and disrupt the conduction of pain signals.
