The Clinical Efficacy of Different Durations of Suprascapular Nerve Pulsed Radiofrequency
Sponsor: Ankara University
Summary
Chronic shoulder pain due to impingement syndrome and supraspinatus tendinosis is a debilitating condition. Suprascapular nerve innervates most part of shoulder joint. Supraspinatus nerve block can be used as a part of pain therapy. However, its efficacy is short-lasting. To prolong analgesia, short bursts of electrical stimulation to suprascapular nerve may be applied. To the date there is no consensus about duration of these type of stimulation. Investigators' aim is to investigate efficacy of two different duration of stimulation (pulsed radiofrequency) on chronic shoulder pain.
