Treatment of Refractory Shoulder Osteoarthritis Pain with Pulsed Radiofrequency Neuromodulation of the Suprascapular Nerve

Friday, November 14, 2025
10:09 AM - 10:17 AM CT
Location: Griffin Hall - Screen 06
Introduction: Shoulder osteoarthritis (OA) commonly causes chronic pain and disability in older adults. Standard management includes physical therapy, lifestyle changes, and NSAIDs, with surgery reserved for advanced disease. However, some patients experience persistent, refractory pain despite these measures. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) neuromodulation offers a minimally invasive alternative, providing analgesia while avoiding the neurodestructive risks of continuous radiofrequency ablation. Evidence for PRF in shoulder OA remains limited, highlighting the need for further investigation.
