U.S., April 19 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06934421) titled 'Revised Targets for Knee Radiofrequency Ablation' on April 10.
Brief Summary: This research team is doing a study to learn more about a new way to treat long-term knee pain caused by joint damage. They are using a treatment called radiofrequency ablation (RFA). This is a procedure where doctors use heat to stop certain nerves from sending pain signals.
In this study, doctors will use ultrasound to guide a small needle to nerves around the knee, called genicular nerves. Then, they will apply heat to those nerves using radiofrequency energy to help reduce pain.
The team created this new method based on recent studies of knee anatom...
