Summary

In our clinic, patients undergoing pulsed radiofrequency treatment of the femoral and obturator nerve articular branches under ultrasound guidance for pain management due to hip and groin pain associated with hip osteoarthritis will have the efficacy of these methods on pain compared with the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and Oxford Hip Score (OHS) at 2, 6, 12 weeks.

Conditions

  • Hip Ostearthritis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

ultrasound-guided femoral and obturator nerve articular branches pulsed radiofrequency

Hemodynamic monitoring is provided. The hip joint where the procedure will be performed is cleaned with povidone-iodine. Sterile draping is performed. For PRF application to the articular branches of the femoral nerve, a convex ultrasound probe is first used to locate the articular branches of the femoral nerve in the groin area, followed by the articular branches of the obturator nerve. The radiofrequency cannula is inserted sequentially into the target points and sensory feedback is obtained. Then, a pulsed radiofrequency current, which has therapeutic properties for chronic pain and does not damage tissues by exceeding a temperature of 42 degrees, is applied to the relevant nerve root for 240 seconds. Subsequently, an injectate consisting of 2 cc of 5% bupivacaine, 4 mg of dexamethasone, and 2 cc of physiological saline is administered to the same nerve. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
