Abstract

Background/Objectives: Pulsed radiofrequency(RF) method has been introduced as a way to provide longer-term pain relief in peripheral nerve areas especially in the management of chronic pain. It is a new treatment method that complements the problems of conventional RF treatment. Methods/Statistical analysis: We describe the clinical use of pulsed RF in a patient with degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee and review of the literature related to the use of clinical practice. Findings: It showed updated information regarding the science of pulsed RF by highlighting basic science, animal study, and clinical data and to explore further the validity of the concept behind the application. Improvements/Applications: Pulsed RF may promise as an analgesic modality to treat a variety of conditions.
