The Comparison of Intraarticular Bipolar Pulsed Radiofrequency and Genicular Nerve Thermal Radiofrequency Ablation for Pain Caused by Osteoarthritis of the Knee.
Pain incurred while walking on flat surfaces and up and down stairs was further reduced with IA-bPRF. IA-bPRF is as effective as G-RFT and even more effective than the latter in some subheadings. Furthermore, the former is a safe alternative for relieving pain in and improving daily life for individuals with advanced KOA. With further research, IA-bPRF may be included in future guidelines for managing chronic KOA pain.
