简要总结
This study examines the different application techniques of ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency treatment of cervical spinal nerves for cervical radicular pain.
Patients with radiologic imaging findings of C5-C6-C7 disc protrusion or extrusion, with compatible clinical and physical examinations and who have undergone ultrasound-guided spinal cervical nerve radiofrequency treatment in our clinic will be evaluated. Patients' background information will be taken in their files and missing information will be completed by phone call. Pain scores at 3 and 6 months after the procedure will be recorded by scoring from 1 to 10. Patients will not undergo any interventional procedure for research purposes.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual Analouge Scale
时间窗: pretreatment, 3.- 6. months
The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) measures pain intensity. The VAS consists of a 10cm line, with two end points representing 0 ('no pain') and 10 ('pain as bad as it could possibly be'). Ask the patient to rate their current level of pain by placing a mark on the line.
次要结局
- Neck Disability Index(pretreatment, 6. months)
