Key Points

The aim is to compare the efficacy of cooled versus tined radiofrequency ablation needles for treating chronic sacroiliac joint pain.
Study comparing two needle types: cooled and tined radiofrequency ablation needles.
Assessment of procedure time, radiation exposure, and adverse events during treatments.
Cooled radiofrequency ablation needles showed reduced procedure time compared to tined needles.
Significantly lower radiation exposure was observed with cooled needles.
Adverse event profile was more favorable for cooled needles.

Implication

Compares efficacy of cooled and tined needles for sacroiliac joint pain, indicating potential treatment improvements.

Abstract

We aimed to compare the efficacy, procedure time, radiation exposure, and adverse event profile of cooled and tined radiofrequency ablation (RFA) needles in the treatment of Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain.
