Ultrasound-Guided Injection for Chronic Sacroiliac Joint Pain
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound-guided injection into the sacroiliac joint (a small joint in the lower back) can provide better pain relief for people with long-lasting pain in that area. If you have had this pain for at least 3 months and standard treatments haven't worked well, this trial may offer a new option.

This trial tests whether strengthening the latissimus dorsi (back) and gluteal (buttock) muscles can reduce pain and disability in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. It may help if you have chronic low back pain related to this joint and are not receiving other treatments.
This study tests a special type of ultrasound (high power pain threshold) to treat pain in the sacroiliac joint—the area where your lower spine meets your pelvis—after childbirth. The therapy aims to reduce pain in new mothers who have had this problem for at least two weeks.
This study compares two imaging-guided methods for giving steroid injections to the sacroiliac joint, which may help reduce pain and inflammation. It aims to see which method is more effective and safe.
This trial tests if a standard injection or a newer treatment called pulsed radiofrequency works better for long-term pain in the sacroiliac joint. It may help if you have had this pain for at least 6 months and medications haven't helped enough.
This trial tests whether combining a steroid injection with shockwave therapy can better relieve lower back pain caused by the sacroiliac joint. If you have had low back pain for at least 3 months and a previous diagnostic injection helped, you may be a good candidate.
This trial tests a nerve-ablation device (Neurolyser XR) for people with long-lasting sacroiliac joint pain—pain in the lower back where the spine connects to the pelvis. You may qualify if you've had good results (over 70% pain relief) from a previous similar procedure or injection in the past 6 months and still have moderate pain.
