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

NCT06264297 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 98

No results posted yet for this study

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.

Conditions

  • Pulsed Radiofrequency
  • Lumbar Radiculopathy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Radiofrequency

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.
