Radiofrequency ablationPain managementPurpose of ReviewThe treatment options for the management of shoulder pain are broad but evolving process. Modalities for controlling shoulder pain have commonly focused on pharmacotherapy, physical therapy, rehabilitation, and invasive procedures (surgical procedures, ...
IntroductionRadiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an interventional procedure that provides pain relief by using thermal energy to disrupt peripheral nerves carrying nociceptive signals back to the central nervous system. In the past, having implantable hardware at the planned site of RFA was considered to ...
The purpose of radiofrequency (RF) rhizotomy, also known as RF neurotomy or ablation, is to reduce or eliminate facet joint pain (arthritis) and related symptoms in the neck, mid back or low back. The goal of the procedure is to interrupt communication of pain between a specific medial ner...

Risks associated with use of TCN and CSK Electrodes for the ablation of peripheral nerve tissue include but are not limited to: Allergic reactions Unintentional burns Bleeding Device failure Increased pain Infection Need for additional treatment
The procedure is typically done by a pain management doctor who's been specifically trained to perform the ablation. This procedure can be done under local anesthesia or with light sedation, which you should discuss with your doctor. This will help keep you comfortable, though its ...
A Patient’s Guide to Pain Management: Radiofrequency Ablation Introduction Radiofrequency ablation is a treatment where radio waves are used to create heat and destroy a part of a nerve. This technique is most commonly used to treat pain that is originating in the facet joints of the spine....
Sometimes the procedure has a name associated to the type of pain that it treats, such as: Lumbar radiofrequency ablation: Treats the facet joints (areas where bones are connected to the spine) in the lower back Cervical radiofrequency ablation: Treats the cervical (neck) facet joints to mana...

Pulsed radiofrequency ablation (PRFA) has shown promise in treating neuropathic pain because of the inhibition of evoked synaptic activity. We present 4 amputees who were treated with PRFA after failing conservative management for their RLP and PLP. All 4 patients underwent PRFA and demonstrated at ...
