- W2564506792 abstract "Background: Radiofrequency (RF) treatment is a minimally invasive procedure that has been used for more than 3 decades in treating various chronic pain syndromes. Conventional (continuous) RF treatment occasionally results in worsening or even initiating a new type of pain. The use of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF), which has a non- or minimally neurodestructive neuromodulatory effect, serves as an alternative to conventional RF therapy in many medical situations. Objectives: To evaluate the effect of applying PRF for 6 minutes vs. thermal radiofrequency (TRF) for 90 seconds to the medial calcaneal nerve for treatment of chronic refractory plantar fasciitis pain. Study Design: Prospective comparative study. Setting: Pain, Orthopedic, and Rheumatology and Rehabilitation Clinics of Assiut University Hospital. Methods: Twenty patients with refractory chronic bilateral plantar fasciitis received PRF to the medial calcaneal nerve for 6 minutes for one heel and TRF to the same nerve on the other heel (as their own control) for 90 seconds. Numerical verbal rating scale (NVRS) at waking up from bed and after prolonged walking, and satisfaction score were used for assessment of studied patients at one, 3, 6, 12, and 24 weeks from the intervention. Results: All studied patients showed significant improvement in their pain scale after the intervention that lasted for 24 weeks; however, the PRF heels had significantly better pain scale and satisfaction scores at the first and third weeks assessments when compared to the TRF heels. Effective analgesia was achieved after one week or less after PRF compared to 3 weeks for the TRF (P < 0.001). Limitations: No randomization. Conclusions: PRF to the medial calcaneal nerve is a safe and effective method for treatment of chronic plantar fasciitis pain. The onset of effective analgesia can be achieved more rapidly with PRF compared to TRF on the same nerve. Further randomized trials are needed to confirm the therapeutic effect and optimizing the dose of RF needed. Key words: Pulsed radiofrequency, thermal radiofrequency, medial calcaneal nerve, plantar fasciitis, plantar aponeurosis, visual analogue scale" @default.
