Since traditional pain medications may not provide complete pain relief or carry prohibitive adverse effects, pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) treatment of the hip articular nerves (HAN) has been proposed for effective clinical outcomes. We determined the efficacy of PRF-HAN in improvement in CHP compared to baseline pain on conventional systemic analgesics.Methods: Between August 2015 and December 2021, 31 adult patients with severe comorbid conditions and excruciating chronic hip pain were subjected to a PRF-HAN procedure following a diagnostic block. All 31 patients received PRF of the articular branches of the femoral and obturator nerves. Demographic parameters, numerical rating scale (NRS), Harris Hip Score (HHS), WOMAC scores, the change of these scores from baseline, and any adverse effects were recorded before treatment and on day 1, 1st week, 6 weeks, and 6 months after treatment.Results: All the patients who underwent the PRF-HAN reported a significant improvement in NRS, HHS, and WOMAC scores compared to the baseline values on day 1, at the end of the 1st week, and the 6th week (p<0.001). No adverse events were documented in the study post-procedure until the end of 6 months.Conclusion: PRF-HAN is a strong alternative for chronic pain management and augments physical functioning and a return to daily activity in patients who would be deprived of arthroplasty considering associated comorbid conditions.","PeriodicalId":101341,"journal":{"name":"Agri : Agri (Algoloji) Dernegi'nin Yayin organidir = The journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140338514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The demographic data including gender and age, rash localization, pain severity, and neuropathic pain components were recorded. Pain severity and neuropathic pain components were evaluated using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Douleur Neuropathique 4 (DN4), respectively.Results: The study included a total of 58 patients, comprising 33 females and 25 males.

The proportion of female patients with neuropathic pain was found to be significantly higher than that of male patients (p=0.021). No significant differences were observed in the distribution of pain across different body sites or in the age of patients with neuropathic pain (p>0.05). Itching was significantly more common in younger patients (p=0.02).Conclusion: In conclusion, the study found that over half of the patients with acute HZ experienced neuropathic pain, and this was more frequently observed in female patients.

With developments in the field of regional anesthesia, several methods are now available for postoperative analgesia. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of the erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in reducing both intraoperative opioid consumption and postoperative analgesic use in patients undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).Methods: A total of 60 patients who underwent PCNL were divided into two groups: 30 patients who received ESPB (Group I) and 30 patients in the control group (Group II). Intraoperative and postoperative opioid usage were recorded for both groups. The pain levels of the patients were evaluated using visual analog scale (VAS) scores obtained at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours postoperatively. Postoperative satisfaction of the patients in both groups was also questioned and compared.Results: A significant difference was detected between Group I and Group II patients in terms of intraoperative opioid require-ments (p=0.00), analgesic requirements in the first 24 hours postoperatively (p=0.00), patient satisfaction status (p=0.00), and VAS scores obtained at 0, 3, 6, and 12 hours postoperatively. No significant difference was found in VAS scores at the 24th postoperative hour.Conclusion: ESPB is a simple, convenient technique that can be performed under ultrasound guidance. It provides remarkable postoperative analgesia and satisfaction in patients undergoing PCNL.","PeriodicalId":101341,"journal":{"name":"Agri : Agri (Algoloji) Dernegi'nin Yayin organidir = The journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140338511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

None of the therapeutic options currently available has proved to be effective in the long term or decisive. In recent years, we have begun to treat purely sensory neuropathies, such as this, with the implantation of wireless peripheral nerve stimulators (PNS), achieving the safety of modular and personalized analgesia. We report the case of a 41-year-old man suffering from ACNES of the 8th intercostal nerve for two years. We first performed two consecutive ultrasound-guided diagnostic blocks of the anterior cutaneous branch of the 8th intercostal right nerve and then elected the patient for ultrasound-guided nerve decompression followed by neuromodulation and pulsed-radiofrequency (PRF). Taking into account full employment, young age, and the likelihood of having to repeat the treatment several times, we considered him for Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) implantation under ultrasound guidance, and we implanted the wireless lead at the anterior branch of the right 8th intercostal nerve, and programmed tonic stimulation 100 Hz PW 200 ms. The patient reported immediate pain relief and never took medication for this problem again, at two years follow-up. PNS has had an increasing role in the management of chronic neuropathic pain, especially in merely sensitive neuropathies like ACNES. We support future research on this theme.","PeriodicalId":101341,"journal":{"name":"Agri : Agri (Algoloji) Dernegi'nin Yayin organidir = The journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140338515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Intra-articular injections are among the most frequently applied interventional treatments for the hip joint. Femoral and obturator sensorial nerve blocks have also been reported to be effective for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A single needle insertion was performed for the blockage of the hip joint and sensory branches. For the sensory branch of the femoral nerve, the needle is advanced at nearly a 45-degree angle toward below the anterior inferior iliac spine near the anterolateral edge of the hip joint. For the sensory branch of the obturator nerve, the needle is advanced at nearly an angle of 45 degrees toward the area below the junction of the pubis and ischium. Finally, for joint injection, the same needle was advanced toward the midline of the anterior femoral head-neck junction at a steeper angle, and blocks were applied. Three patients with hip osteoarthritis were injected with this method and well-being was achieved in a 3-month follow-up. We think that blockage of the hip joint and peripheral sensory branches with a single needle insertion is a fast and effective method. However, prospective controlled studies are needed to determine the efficacy and safety of the method.","PeriodicalId":101341,"journal":{"name":"Agri : Agri (Algoloji) Dernegi'nin Yayin organidir = The journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140338512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
