Twenty‐One‐Year Experience With Cervical Diagnostic Blocks and Denervation: A Study of 1031 Cases at a Single Institution
Our findings suggest that prior CT scans availability, prior management with physical medicine, and a history of cervical trauma are associated with favorable CMBB outcomes, whereas prior NMR correlates with poorer responses. There is potential for improvement in our use of corticosteroids in CMBB procedures. The complication rate in our study was under 0.5%, with all complications being minor. Further prospective studies are warranted to corroborate these findings.
