Abstract

Background: Radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment modality in the symptomatic treatment of knee osteoarthritis. Our aim was to compare the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation of the superomedial and inferomedial genicular nerves (2 branches) with the superolateral, superomedial, and inferomedial genicular nerves (3 branches) and to show whether the 2-branch procedure is inferior to the 3-branch procedure. Methods: This study is a prospective, randomized, single-blind clinical study. Eligible participants were randomized into 2 groups: group A, which applied the procedure to the superomedial and inferomedial genicular nerves, and group B, which applied it to the superomedial, superolateral and inferomedial genicular nerves. Pain was evaluated with the numerical rating scale, quality of life with the Short Form-36 (SF-36), and disability with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) Osteoarthritis Index before, and at 1 and 3 months after the procedure. Results: A total of 41 patients were included. There were no differences between the groups except for the SF-36 physical health sub-score at baseline. A significant improvement was seen in the numeric rating scale (NRS) score, SF-36 sub-scores, WOMAC Index total, as well as pain and physical function scores in both groups, though no significant difference was detected between the groups during follow-up. Conclusions: Although we were unable to establish the noninferiority of conventional radiofrequency ablation (CRFA) applied to 2 branches to CRFA applied to 3 branches, in this trial, significant and similar improvement was observed in NRS, WOMAC total, pain, and physical function and SF-36 scores in both groups.

Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of epidural steroid injection (ESI) in patients with low back pain. Patients and methods: This prospective study included a total of 82 patients (51 females; 31 males; mean age 50.8 +/- 14.2 years; range, 17 to 86 years) who underwent ESI due to lumbar disc hernia-induced radiculopathy between September 2014 and May 2015. The Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Istanbul Low Back Pain Disability Index (ILBPDI), and the Short Form-36 (SF-36) were administered to all patients before and three weeks and three months after ESI. Results: The mean scores of all scales were significantly lower at three weeks and three months following ESI compared to the baseline scores. There were no significant differences between the mean scores at three weeks and three months. The NRS yielded the highest post-ESI change from baseline. Conclusion: Our study results showed that all scales used in this study were effective tools for the evaluation of outcomes of EPI in patients with low back pain. Although the NRS yielded the highest sensitivity for detecting change, evaluating functional state and quality of life is essential for multivariate analyses.

Abstract

Objective: Subacromial injection (SAI), due to its ease of application and increased patient tolerability, is one of the preferred invasive therapies. In this study, we aimed to evaluate effectiveness of ultrasound-guided SAI in patients with supraspinatus calcific tendinitis by assessment of roentgenograms and clinical appraisal. Patients and Methods: Thirty-five patients with supraspinatus tendon calcifications as revealed by the roentgenography underwent ultrasound-guided SAI. Pre-treatment the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire (QuickDASH) scores and Gartner’s Classification of calcific tendinitis were obtained. Clinical follow-up was scheduled at 1st, 3rd and 6th months posttreatment along with a single roentgenogram planned at 6th month. Results: A total of 53 SAIs were performed on 36 shoulders, 21 female and 14 male patients. Mean size of calcifications were 12.3 and 7.1 mm, pre-treatment and at 6th month, respectively. Pre and post-injection calcification mean sizes in the group with clinical improvement were 13.6 and 5.7 mm; whereas, in group without diminished symptoms, they were 11.8 and 9.4 mm demonstrating a statistically significant intergroup difference (p

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of a Turkish version of the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and angina. Methods: The SAQ was translated from English to Turkish using the back-translation method. It contains 19 questions scored from 1 to either 5 or 6 in 5 domains (physical limitation, angina stability, angina frequency, disease perception, and treatment satisfaction). Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to evaluate internal consistency. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was calculated to assess the construct validity. Convergent validity was examined using correlations between the SAQ and the MacNew Heart Disease Health-related Quality of Life Questionnaire (MacNew) and the Nottingham Health Profile. Divergent validity was evaluated using correlations between the SAQ and age, body mass index (BMI), gender, and the marital status of patients. A value of p
