Safety and effectiveness of basivertebral nerve ablation in patients with osteoporosis and osteopenia: A real-world study

The Intracept procedure demonstrated significant pain reduction and functional improvement in the overall cohort and in patients with reduced bone density. Notably, no post-procedure vertebral compression fractures were observed, even in patients with osteoporosis and osteopenia. These findings contribute to the growing body of independent literature supporting the safety and effectiveness of the Intracept procedure and offer real-world insight into its use in patients with reduced bone density.

Abstract

The Intracept procedure demonstrated significant pain reduction and functional improvement in the overall cohort and in patients with reduced bone density. Notably, no post-procedure vertebral compression fractures were observed, even in patients with osteoporosis and osteopenia. These findings contribute to the growing body of independent literature supporting the safety and effectiveness of the Intracept procedure and offer real-world insight into its use in patients with reduced bone density.
