Radiofrequency

Radiofrequency ablation is a minimally invasive procedure guided for ultrasound or fluoroscopy.

After identifying the nerve, radiofrequency ablation uses an electric current to heat up a small area of nerve tissue to stop it from sending pain signals.

Crioablation

Cryoablation uses cold temperatures and is a minimally invasive procedure guided for ultrasound or fluoroscopy.

The indications are many and include treatment of chronic low back pain, others spine pain and osteoarthritic joints with severe pain and non-controlled by medication.

Nucleoplasty

Nucleoplasty is a fluoroscopy-guided procedure used to treat disc herniation in patients with severe, persistent back pain unresponsive to conventional treatments.

It relieves pressure on the disc and nerves and typically takes less than an hour as an outpatient procedure.

Intra-articular Corticosteroids Injection

Corticosteroids are used to reduce pain and inflammation. Injecting these directly into the affected area, often guided by ultrasound, allows for precise treatment while avoiding systemic effects It is a minimally invasive procedure, commonly used for inflammatory arthritis and other musculoskeletal conditions.

Platelets Rich
Plasma Injection

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy involves extracting a platelet-rich portion of a patient’s blood, which is then injected into damaged tissues like joints or muscles to promote healing.

Typically, three injections spaced 1-2 weeks apart are recommended for conditions such as osteoarthritis, tennis elbow, and muscle tears.

Peripheric Nerve Block

This minimally invasive procedure, guided by ultrasound or fluoroscopy, involves injecting a local anaesthetic to block nerve signals.

Adding corticoid can extend the effect, making it useful for acute or subacute musculoskeletal conditions.

Hydrodistention

Frozen shoulder causes severe pain and limited movement, often in women, diabetics, or after injury. Treatment includes anti-inflammatory medication and physiotherapy, with hydrodistension as an option to reduce pain and improve mobility.

This ultrasound-guided procedure injects anaesthetic, steroid, and saline to stretch the joint capsule.

Calcification Barbotage

Calcific tendinitis, characterized by calcium deposits in tendons, can be treated with ultrasound-guided calcification barbotage.

This minimally invasive procedure breaks up and removes calcium deposits, aiding in their reabsorption, and is followed by a corticosteroid injection to reduce inflammation.

Botulin Toxin Injection

Botulinum toxin blocks acetylcholine release, relaxing overactive muscles when injected, ideally under ultrasound.

It treats spasticity, contractures, overuse tendinosis, and has benefits for knee osteoarthritis and migraines.

Pharmacological Pain Management

Pain, often causing physical disability and psychosocial issues, necessitates thorough diagnosis through anamnesis and physical examination.

Treatment usually involves pharmacological management to address pain from tissue damage, inflammation, or nervous system disorders.
