NCT07367152 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2026-01-26

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This retrospective cohort study will review medical records of patients treated with intercostal nerve radiofrequency for intercostal neuralgia. The goal is to identify patient and clinical factors that are associated with treatment success after the procedure. Outcomes will be assessed using pain measures documented during routine follow-up visits, along with any recorded adverse events. No additional visits, tests, or interventions are required because this study uses previously collected clinical data.

Conditions
