简要总结
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a comprehensive, multi-target injection protocol, termed 'PRP Spinoplasty,' for managing chronic LBP stemming from concurrent lumbar disc and facet joint disease with associated muscle spasms.
详细描述
A quasi-experimental study was conducted on 29 patients with chronic LBP who failed conservative therapy. The PRP Spinoplasty protocol involved a single-session, fluoroscopy-guided administration of autologous PRP to the interlaminar epidural space, affected facet joints, and paraspinal muscle trigger points. Outcomes were assessed using the Numeric Pain Scale (NPS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), and Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) at baseline and at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months post-procedure.

研究组 & 干预措施
Adult patients with chronic low back pain secondary to lumbar disc disease and facet arthropathy
The study population consisted of 35 adult patients with a diagnosis of chronic low back pain secondary to lumbar disc disease and facet arthropathy, with an associated component of muscular spasm. Diagnoses were confirmed by an interventional pain specialist based on a detailed medical history, physical examination, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings.
干预措施: Spinoplasty with Platelet Rich Plasma (Biological)
结局指标
主要结局
Quantifying pain intensity using Numeric Pain Scale (NPS)
时间窗: 0-6 months
An 11-point scale (0 = no pain, 10 = worst imaginable pain) used to quantify pain intensity
Assessing level of functional disability using Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)
时间窗: 0-6 months
A 10-item questionnaire assessing the level of functional disability due to low back pain. Scores are calculated from a raw point score of 0-52, with lower scores indicating less disability. The raw score corresponds to the following disability levels: 0-4 points (No disability), 5-14 points (Mild disability), 15-24 points (Moderate disability), 25-34 points (Severe disability), and 35-52 points (Completely disabled)
Assessing patient's condition using Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE)
时间窗: 0-6 months
A patient-reported global assessment score where patients rate their condition on a scale of 0-100%, comparing their current status to their pre-injury baseline
次要结局
- Assessing adverse events from treatment(0-6 months)
