Osteo Arthritis Knee Clinical Trial
Official title:
Patients With Knee Pain Caused by Osteoarthritis: Comparison of Conservative Medical Management With RadioFrequency Ablation or Chemical Neurolysis of the Genicular Nerves With Phenol
A randomised controlled triall (RCT) with three parallel arms comparing the functional outcome of chemical ablation with phenol and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of the genicular nerves with conservative treatment in patients with chronic knee pain caused by osteoarthritis (OA).
In guidelines for knee osteoarthritis (OA), conservative treatments are physical therapy, analgesics and intra-articular injections with corticosteroids. In severe OA and persisting symptomatic cases the golden standard is joint replacing surgery. A less invasive technique is ablation of the sensory (genicular) nerves of the knee. This technique is beneficial for younger patients as a bridge to surgery or patients that cannot undergo total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to comorbid health conditions. Nerve ablation can either be done with chemical agents or thermal energy. Although there are numerous studies on genicular nerve block for chronic knee pain caused by OA, there are just a few small studies that compare genicular nerve block with conservative treatment.To be able to determine if genicular nerve ablation is efficacious to serve the gap between conservative treatment and TKA, this randomised controlled trial (RCT) compares two forms of genicular nerve ablation (radiofrequency and phenolisation; intervention) with conservative treatment (control) up to 6 months after treatment. ;
