Radiofrequency for knee osteoarthritis pain
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have knee pain that has lasted for at least 3 months.
- A doctor has confirmed you have knee osteoarthritis (usually seen on an X-ray).
- You are in good overall health – no serious heart, liver, kidney, or nerve conditions.
- Your weight is in a healthy range (body mass index between 18.5 and 29.9).
- You are not allergic to the medications used in this study.

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.
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 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 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 study compares two minimally invasive procedures—radiofrequency ablation (using heat) and alcohol injections—to see which one better relieves chronic knee pain from osteoarthritis. It may help people who haven't gotten enough relief from standard treatments like physical therapy or medications.
This study tests a treatment that uses radiofrequency (heat) to target specific nerves around the knee to reduce chronic pain from knee osteoarthritis. It may be a good option if you've had knee pain for a long time and haven't responded to other treatments.
