First seen Feb 02, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This study looks at two different methods to reduce pain after knee replacement surgery: using radiofrequency (heat) or a chemical called phenol to block the geniculate nerve. About 140 adults who had knee replacement for osteoarthritis will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. Researchers will measure pain levels before the procedure and at 1, 3, and 6 months after to see which method works better and is safer.
