Radiofrequency ablation (RFA), also calledradiofrequency neurotomyis a procedure that involves heating a part of a pain-transmitting nerve with a radiofrequency needle to create a heat lesion. This resulting lesion prevents the nerve from sending pain signals to the brain. RFA treatment typically p...
Pain caused by neoplasm size, pain levels pre-procedure and post-procedure (as assessed using the visual analog scale, VAS), time length, and target temperature of RFA treatments were documented. Results RFA procedures were performed with 100% technical success. The mean pre-procedure and post-...
Radiofrequency therapy is a targeted procedure of precision that works by using radiofrequency technology (mild electrical current) to prevent nerves from transmitting painful signals. This remarkable procedure has been proven to treat pain of all kinds, ranging from neck and back pain to cancer and...
The primary outcome was Visual Analog Scale pain score 12 months postprocedure. Secondary outcome measures included Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis (WOMAC) and Patient Global Improvement- Indexes (PGI- I). 64例膝关节骨性关节炎患者,经膝内侧上、外侧、下内侧神经阻滞后疼痛缓解率>50%...
