Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: Ultrasound guided transforaminal epidural steroid injection
|
Ultrasound identification of the nerve root, fluoroscopic control of the position and injection of a mixture of 10 mg of dexamethasone and 20 mg of lidocaine.
|
EXPERIMENTAL: Interlaminar epidural steroid injection
|
Fluoroscopic location of the epidural space C5C6 or C6C7, injection of a mixture of 10 mg of dexamethasone and 20 mg of lidocaine.
|
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Visual Analogue Score change at 30 minutes post infiltration when compared to baseline
Time Frame: up to 30 minutes
|
Pain will be evaluated by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) before and 30 minutes after corticosteroid infiltration. Visual Analog pain score (scale = 0 no pain; 10= worst pain imaginable) |
up to 30 minutes
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Visual Analogue Score change at 1 month post infiltration when compared to baseline
Time Frame: up to 1 month
|
Pain will be evaluated by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) before and 1 month after corticosteroid infiltration. Visual Analog pain score (scale = 0 no pain; 10= worst pain imaginable) |
up to 1 month
|
Patient satisfaction during procedure
Time Frame: at the end of infiltration
|
Pain will be evaluated by Satisfaction scale after procedure (0= unsatisfied, 5= very satisfied)
|
at the end of infiltration
|
Neck disability index (NDI) score (questionnaire)
Time Frame: up to 1 month
|
Neck disability index (NDI) score will be calculated before, 30 minutes and 1 month after corticosteroid infiltration The NDI is a standard instrument for measuring self-rated disability due to neck pain. Each of the 10 items is scored from 0 - 5. The maximum score is therefore 50. Points summed to a total score. The test can be interpreted as a raw score, with a maximum score of 50, Interpretation for scoring intervals : 0 - 4 = no disability; 5 - 14 = mild disability; 15 - 24 = moderate disability; 25 - 34 = severe disability, above 34 = complete disability. |
up to 1 month
|
Rate of Procedure failure
Time Frame: up to 30 minutes
|
The procedure will be considered as a failure if the infiltration is not performed.
|
up to 30 minutes
|
Incidence of Adverse effects (lipothymia, nausea, vomiting)
Time Frame: up to 1 month
|
up to 1 month
|
|
Incidence of complications (stroke, hematoma, paralysis)
Time Frame: up to 1 month
|
up to 1 month
|
