Intraosseous basivertebral nerve ablation: Pooled long-term outcomes from two prospective clinical trials
At three years post-Intracept Procedure, statistically significant (p<0.0001) improvements of 31.2 points and 4.3 points were observed compared to baseline, for mean Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and mean numeric pain score (NPS), respectively. The study also found that 74% fewer patients were actively using opioid medications for low back pain and 84% fewer patients required spinal injections for the same pain source and treatment level at three years following treatment.
Intraosseous BVNA demonstrates statistically significant, clinically meaningful, and durable improvements in pain and function through 3 years in patients with primary vertebrogenic low back pain. BVNA-treated patients significantly reduced opioid use and interventions for low back pain. To read the study go to ScienceDirect.com
