Various treatment options have been used for trigeminal neuralgia such as medical treatment, interventional procedures, and surgical operations. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) is a minimally invasive percutaneous technique which seems to be safer and easier to perform. This retrospective study aims to evaluate the analgesic effect, duration of efficacy, and side effects of PRF procedures in the peripheral branches of the trigeminal nerve.Methods: The data of the patients with trigeminal neuralgia who were followed up in our hospital's algology clinic from 2016 to 2018 were reviewed retrospectively. Patients aged between 18 and 70 who did not respond to medical treatment or could not use medication due to side effects were treated with PRF procedure for peripheral branches of trigeminal nerve that was selected for this study. Demographic profile, clinical presentation, pain intensity, duration of efficacy, and complications were evaluated from their files.Results: Twenty-one patients who underwent ultrasonography guided PRF procedures were included the study. Mean visual analog scale value of the patients was found to have decreased from 9.25±0.63 to 1.55±0.88 at the end of the 1st month (p<0.001). The painless period for the patients lasted up to 12 (9-21) months and no complications occurred.Conclusion: PRF procedure seems to be an effective and safe method in patients who respond to block of the peripheral branches of the trigeminal nerve.","PeriodicalId":45603,"journal":{"name":"Agri-The Journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9662916","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}

Pain was evaluated using the visual analog scale. The Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) scoring system was used for the evaluation of the impact of FMS. Furthermore, for assessing the physical activity in our participants, we used the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The Mann-Whitney U and Pearson's correlation tests were used for group comparisons and correlation analyses.Results: The patients presented significantly less transportation-related, recreational, and total physical activity levels, besides reporting significantly less time spent walking and less time spent in vigorous activities than controls (p<0.05). Furthermore, there was a negative correlation between pain and the scores of self-reported moderate or vigorous physical activity (r=-0.41, p<0.01) in patients. However, we could not find any correlation between FIQ and IPAQ scores.Conclusion: Patients with FMS are physically less active than healthy individuals. This reduced activity seems to be associated with pain, but not with the impact of the disease. In the management of the patient with FMS, considering the patient's physical activity behavior negatively affected by pain may contribute to holistic approach to the patients.","PeriodicalId":45603,"journal":{"name":"Agri-The Journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9293105","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 data were collected through the introductory and pain assessment information form prepared by the researchers and the online Google forms. SPSS 25.0 statistical program was used for data analysis.Results: As a result of the analysis of the data obtained, it was found that the average age of the participants included in the study was 40.83±7.78 years, education level was 70.4% at most, and 80.9% was female at most. It was determined that 58.1% lived in the Marmara region and 41.8% lived in Istanbul, and 41.2% were private sector employees. It was determined that the pain prevalence of adults in Türkiye was 80.84% and 79.07% of them had pain in the last year. It was determined that the region with the most pain was the head and neck region with 37.88%.Conclusion: According to the results of the research, the prevalence of adult pain is quite high in Türkiye. Despite the high prevalence of pain, the rate of preference for drug therapy to relieve pain is low and the preference for non-drug treatment methods is high.","PeriodicalId":45603,"journal":{"name":"Agri-The Journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9662912","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}

Records of patients pertaining to age, gender, location of pain, Visual Analog Scale, Patient Global Impression of Change, and Oswestry Disability Index Scale (ODI) before the interventional procedure and at the 1st and 3rd months after the procedure were recorded using the hospital automation system and patient follow-up forms.Results: The functional capacity of the patients was evaluated, and in the comparison of the ODI score before the procedure, at the 1st month, and at the 3rd month, a statistically significant difference was found in the particulate steroid group compared to the non-particulate group at the 1st and 3rd months. When evaluated using the Generalized Linear Models, a statistically significant difference was found in both groups (p=0.039), and the ODI score was approximately 2,951 units lower in patients who were treated with particulate steroids than those who were treated with non-particulate steroids at each measurement time.Conclusion: In our study, it has been demonstrated that particulate steroids are superior to non-particulate steroids in improving functional capacity in the early period, and non-particulate steroids are advantageous in the long term.","PeriodicalId":45603,"journal":{"name":"Agri-The Journal of the Turkish Society of Algology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9662914","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}
