Chronic Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy of Genicular Nerve Radiofrequency in Patients With Knee Pain After Total Knee Replacement
In patients with knee pain, local anesthetics and radiofrequency applications to
superolateral, superomedial and inferomedial genicular nerves that innervate the knee joint
are also preferred methods besides analgesic and physical therapy. When necessary, total knee
replacement is the preferred method for primary knee arthrosis.
However, continuing knee pain is reported in approximately 20% of patients after total knee
replacement. In similar cases; In the painful knees, the blockages of the genicular nerves
are successfully applied.
In this study; the efficacy of imaging-guided radiofrequency application will be investigated
in patients presenting with knee pain after total knee replacement.

Primary | Post intervention analgesic effect | Post intervention analgesic effects of genicular block on patients will be recorded. Postoperative pain, digital evaluation scale (Visual analogue scale -VAS; 0= absence of pain, 100= unbearable pain) of all patients will be performed and recorded. | at first 3 months | |
Secondary | Ultrasound versus fluoroscopy | Western Ontario and Mc Masters Osteoarthritis index (VOMAC) will be used to evaluate functional status on the efficacy of Ultrasound and fluoroscopy use.VOMAC is a disease-specific score in which pain, stiffness and physical functions are evaluated. It consists of 24 questions, 5 of which are pain, 2 are stiffness and 17 are evaluating physical function. It has both total score and subgroups can be evaluated separately. Maximum scores were 20 for pain subgroup, 8 for stiffness and 68 for physical function. High scores indicate that the patient has poor values in that group. | at first 3 months |
