Efficacy of pulsed radiofrequency treatment duration to the lumbar dorsal root ganglion in lumbar radicular pain: a double-blind randomized controlled trial
A 6 min PRF duration provided the most consistent and statistically significant improvement in pain and function, supporting its use as a clinical standard. The 8 min duration may yield additional subjective and functional benefits in selected patients. PRF was safe and well tolerated across all groups.
