Knee pain relief with radiofrequency nerve treatment
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests a procedure called radiofrequency ablation, which uses heat to target nerves around the knee to reduce pain. It may be an option for people with severe knee osteoarthritis who haven't found relief from other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 70 years old.
- You have severe knee osteoarthritis pain (grade 3 or 4).
- You are generally healthy enough for a procedure (ASA class I-III).
- You have not had knee surgery or a similar nerve treatment before.
- You can lie down for the procedure.

This study tests a treatment called radiofrequency for knee osteoarthritis. Radiofrequency uses heat to target nerves around the knee, which may help reduce pain and improve your daily comfort.
This study compares two types of radiofrequency treatment to reduce knee pain from osteoarthritis. It may help people whose knee pain has not improved with other treatments like physical therapy or injections.
This trial tests a treatment that uses radio waves to reduce pain signals from the nerves around the knee. It might help if you have long-lasting knee pain from osteoarthritis and find certain movements very painful.
This trial tests a revised method for radiofrequency ablation to treat chronic knee pain from severe osteoarthritis (KL grade III or IV). It aims to see if the procedure can help patients who haven't gotten relief from standard treatments like physical therapy, painkillers, and steroid injections.
This study is testing a new way to see if a treatment called radiofrequency ablation (which uses heat to quiet pain nerves) might help knee arthritis, using a special brain-scanning technique to predict who responds best.
This trial studies whether a radiofrequency procedure can reduce chronic knee pain after knee replacement surgery. It may help people who still have bothersome pain between 6 months and 5 years after their operation, as long as their pain pattern and medications are stable.
