NCT07565545
The purpose of this study is to evaluate outcomes in patients treated with iFuse INTRA Ti for chronic SI joint pain.
NCT07498660
The study is an interventional, randomized, open-label (non-blinded), placebo-controlled trial. Preoperatively, patients scheduled for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) will undergo a clinical examination in the Orthopaedic Department. Clinical tests will be performed to confirm sacroiliac joint (SIJ) dysfunction on the operated side. In addition, low-dose computed tomography (CT) will be used to assess structural changes in the SIJ. All patients will complete patient-reported outcome measures related to the hip joint, including the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the Harris Hip Score (HHS), as well as SIJ-related assessments, including the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Pain intensity will be assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Following THA, patients will be randomly allocated into two groups during their hospital stay. In the intervention group, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) will be injected into the sacroiliac joint, whereas the control group will receive an injection of normal saline. All injections will be performed in the operating theatre. At discharge, patients will be scheduled for follow-up visits at 2, 6, and 12 weeks postoperatively. At each follow-up, patient-reported outcomes will be collected, including WOMAC and HHS for hip function, ODI for SIJ-related disability, and VAS for pain assessment of both the hip and sacroiliac joint.
NCT07151027
The aim of this work is to evaluate the efficacy of adding alcohol to local anesthetics and steroids to provide pain relief in patients with sacroiliac joint pain.
NCT06709313
The aim of this study is to investigate whether oral chromium supplementation can decrease steroid-induced hyperglycemia in diabetic patients undergoing ultrasound-guided sacroiliac joint injections through a randomized controlled trial (RCT).
NCT01726608
The purpose of the study is to investigate if a technique called Simplicity III® Radiofrequency Neurotomy is effective in improving the management of sacroiliac joint pain. Currently there are a variety of treatments for managing this pain but there is still some doubt as to which treatments are the most effective. Simplicity III® is one such treatment for sacroiliac joint pain and has been used in the NHS for many years. It uses electrical current to generate heat around the tip of the needle placed close to the nerves that supply the sacro-iliac joint. This heat ablates the specific nerves supplying the joint and improves pain. The traditional method used to treat this type of pain uses multiple injections to target the nerves supplying the joint. This method is however both time consuming and the results are variable depending upon the number of injections. Therefore a new electrode, called the Simplicity III®, was developed to allow the treatment to be undertaken using fewer injections. Although this treatment has received formal approval, undergone conformity assessment and is available in certain specialist NHS centres for clinical use, there is presently limited evidence with regards to its clinical efficacy. We wish to test the effectiveness of this new device in treating sacroiliac joint pain. The best way to prove the clinical effectiveness is to compare Simplicity III® against an identical procedure where the electrode is not switched on and neither the patient nor the doctor is aware whether it was switched on. Once pain has been assessed at 3 months, those patients not receiving active treatment and remaining in pain will be offered the active treatment.
