Safety and Feasibility of the NeurolyserXR for Sacroiliac Joint Pain
- Conditions
- Sacroiliitis
- Interventions
- Device: NeurolyserXR
- Registration Number
- NCT05396495
- Lead Sponsor
- FUSMobile Inc.
- Brief Summary
Pilot study to evaluate the safety and the effectiveness of the Neurolyser XR as a treatment for sacroiliitis
- Detailed Description
Pilot, Interventional, Prospective, Open label, Single Arm study to evaluate Non-invasive thermal ablation of the posterior sacral nerve branches as a treatment of painful sacroiliac joint (SIJ) using High Intensity Focused Ultrasound delivered by the Neurolyser XR.
Patient would be treated and then followed for up to 6 months. Primary safety endpoint will be measured by the incidence and severity of treatment related adverse events Primary effectiveness endpoint will be measured by the changes in average pain score and Rolland Morris Disability Questionnaire between baseline and 6 and 12 months

- INTERVENTIONAL
- Study Design
- SINGLE_GROUP
- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description Treatment arm NeurolyserXR Treatment arm using the NeurolyserXR to non-invasively ablate the posterior sacral branches enervating the sacroiliac joint
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Effectiveness per pain score using numerical rating scale of 0 to 10 Baseline throughout the follow-up period of six months Pain reduction would be measured using numerical rating scale of 0 to 10 to evaluate pain and brief pain inventory questioner
Safety per adverse events Baseline throughout the follow-up period of six months Measured by the incidence and severity of treatment related adverse events
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Assess self-rated physical disability caused by low back pain Baseline throughout the follow-up period of six months Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire providing a scale of 0 to 24 when 0 is best and 24 is worst
Opioid intake dosage using morphine equivalency conversion Baseline throughout the follow-up period of six months Using by recording patient opioid intake using opioid equivalency chart
