Radiofrequency in Orthopedics

What you should know about radiofrequency in orthopedics

Radiofrequency is a simple medical procedure performed in the operating room.

After anesthesia, so you do not feel discomfort during the intervention, your doctor will use some needles special to injure with heat or alter with electrical pulses certain nerve points to block the transmission of nerve pain signals.

Both techniques - conventional radiofrequency or pulsed radiofrequency - are performed in the operating room and they need the help of x-rays.

The intervention lasts approximately one hour and then the patient can go home.
