First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compared two treatments for chronic shoulder pain: a nerve block injection and a radiofrequency ablation procedure. 104 adults with shoulder pain for at least 3 months were treated and followed for 3 months. The goal was to see which treatment provides better and longer-lasting pain relief and improved shoulder function.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
pulsed radiofrequency ablation and nerve block injection (lidocaine and corticosteroid)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that radiofrequency ablation provides longer-lasting pain relief than a standard nerve block for chronic shoulder pain.
What could go wrong
This is a completed study with 104 participants, so results are limited. The treatments may not work for everyone, and there are risks like temporary numbness or infection.
