About this study

Official title: Predictive Values for the Outcome of Ultrasound Guided Genicular Nerve Radiofrequency Ablation for Chronic Knee Pain

Researchers are trying to assess a predictive value or correlation between patient and procedural characteristics and outcome measures results after genicular nerve radiofrequency ablation.

Read the detailed description

Genicular nerve radiofrequency stimulation procedure is an effective treatment for patients with chronic pain due to knee osteoarthritis; however, little is known about factors that predict procedure success. This study evaluated correlation between patient characteristics and procedural characteristics and pain improvement after ultrasound guided genicular nerve radiofrequency stimulation procedure.

Medical subject headings
Osteoarthritis, Knee

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain assessed by NRS

    A NRS involves asking the patient to rate his or her pain from 0 to 10 (11 point scale) with the understanding that 0 is equal to no pain and 10 is equal to worst possible pain.

    Measured: Change from baseline pain score at 6 months

Timeline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis, Knee, run by Diskapi Teaching and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain assessed by NRS (time frame: Change from baseline pain score at 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Mar 2022.
