Exploring the Efficacy of Autologous Platelet Leukocyte Rich Plasma Injections in Chronic Low Back Pain & Understanding Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Host David Rosenblum, MD Episode Date: October 25, 2024 In this episode, Dr. David Rosenblum discusses two significant studies related to chronic low back pain and degenerative lumbar conditions. The first study focuses on the use of autologous platelet leukocyte rich plasma (PLRP) injections for treating atrophied lumbar multifidus muscles, while the second study investigates the correlation between muscle atrophy and the severity of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS). Featured Article 1: - Effect of Autologous Platelet Leukocyte Rich Plasma Injections on Atrophied Lumbar Multifidus Muscle in Low Back Pain Patients with Monosegmental Degenerative Disc Disease - **Authors:** Mohamed Hussein, Tamer Hussein Key Points Discussed 1. Background: Correlation between lumbar multifidus muscle dysfunction and chronic low back pain. 2. Study Overview: 115 patients treated with weekly PLRP injections for six weeks, followed for 24 months. 3. Outcome Measures: Significant improvements in NRS and ODI scores, with high patient satisfaction. 4. Conclusions: PLRP injections into the atrophied multifidus muscle are safe and effective for managing chronic low back pain. Featured Article 2: - Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Authors:* Gen Xia, Xueru Li, Yanbing Shang, Bin Fu, Feng Jiang, Huan Liu, Yongdong Qiao Key Points Discussed 1. Background: DLSS is a common condition in older adults, often leading to muscle atrophy and disability. 2. Study Overview: A retrospective analysis involving 232 patients to investigate the correlation between muscle atrophy and spinal stenosis severity. 3. Results: - Significant differences in the ratio of fat-free multifidus muscle cross-sectional area between stenotic and non-stenotic segments. - A strong positive correlation was found between multifidus atrophy and the severity of spinal stenosis. - The atrophy was more pronounced on symptomatic sides of the spine compared to contralateral sides. 4. Conclusions: The findings suggest that more severe spinal stenosis is associated with greater muscle atrophy, emphasizing the importance of addressing muscle health in DLSS patients. Discussion: Dr. Rosenblum provides insights into how these studies inform clinical practices for treating chronic low back pain and managing degenerative conditions. He emphasizes the need for comprehensive treatment strategies that consider both muscle health and spinal integrity which may be achieved via peripheral nerve stimulation of the medial branch nerve and multifidus muscle or PRP injection in to the multifidus muscle.

Podcast Show Note Summary: Episode Title: "New Guidelines for Corticosteroid Injections in Chronic Pain Management" This podcast is a discussion about the recent review article Use of corticosteroids for adult chronic pain interventions: sympathetic and peripheral nerve blocks, trigger point injections - guidelines from the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, the American Academy of Pain Medicine, the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, the International Pain and Spine Intervention Society, and the North American Spine Society In this episode, we dive into the recently published guidelines on the use of corticosteroid injections for managing chronic pain, developed by the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, along with several other prominent pain societies. These guidelines address the safety and efficacy of corticosteroid injections for sympathetic and peripheral nerve blocks, as well as trigger point injections. Key Discussion Points: Background and Need for Guidelines: Overview of potential adverse events from corticosteroid injections, such as increased blood glucose levels, decreased bone mineral density, and suppression of the hypothalamic–pituitary axis. Importance of using lower doses of corticosteroids, which studies have found to be just as effective as higher doses. Development of the Guidelines: The guidelines were approved by multiple pain societies and structured into three categories: sympathetic and peripheral nerve blocks, joint injections, and neuraxial injections. Extensive literature review and consensus-building through a modified Delphi process. Key Recommendations: The addition of corticosteroids to local anesthetics is recommended for certain nerve blocks, such as the greater occipital nerve block for cluster headaches and ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve blocks for post-herniorrhaphy pain. Corticosteroid addition is not recommended for sympathetic nerve blocks, greater occipital nerve blocks for migraines, and pudendal nerve blocks for pudendal neuralgia. Imaging guidance (ultrasound or fluoroscopy) improves the safety and accuracy of certain procedures. Efficacy and Safety: Detailed analysis of various studies on the effectiveness of corticosteroid injections for different types of chronic pain. Discussion on the minimal benefit of corticosteroids in trigger point injections and the potential risks associated with their use. Clinical Implications: How these guidelines can assist clinicians in making informed decisions regarding corticosteroid use in chronic pain management. Emphasis on the need for personalized treatment plans based on individual patient characteristics and clinical data. Future Directions: Identification of gaps in the current research and the need for well-designed studies to further assess the benefits and risks of corticosteroid injections. Join us as we explore these comprehensive guidelines and their potential impact on improving chronic pain management practices.

PainExam Show Notes: Mandibular Division of the Trigeminal Nerve Block with Dr. David Rosenblum Introduction Host: Dr. David Rosenblum Topic: Mandibular Division of the Trigeminal Nerve Block for Cancer Pain Management Techniques: Ultrasound and Fluoroscopic Guidance Overview Purpose: Alleviate chronic facial pain, specifically in cancer patients suffering from trigeminal neuralgia or other related conditions. Focus: Detailed discussion on the anatomy, clinical presentation, and procedural techniques for effective nerve block. Anatomy of the Mandibular Nerve Origin: Mandibular nerve is a branch of the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V). Pathway: Exits the middle cranial fossa through the foramen ovale and descends between the lateral and medial pterygoid muscles. Sensory Innervation: Anterior two-thirds of the tongue Teeth and mucosa of the mandible Skin of the chin and lower lip Skin over the mandible (excluding the mandibular angle) Tragus and anterior part of the ear Posterior part of the temporalis muscle up to the scalp Ultrasound-Guided Technique Patient Positioning: Patient lies on their side with the affected side facing upward. Transducer Selection: Curvilinear transducer preferred for deeper structures. Transducer Placement: Place distal and parallel to the zygomatic arch to bridge the coronoid and condylar processes. Anatomical Landmarks: Identify the lateral pterygoid muscle and plate. Use power Doppler to locate the sphenoid palatine artery. Needle Trajectory: Introduce the needle using an out-of-plane approach to target the pterygopalatine fossa (anterior to the lateral pterygoid plate). For the mandibular nerve block, target the area posterior to the lateral pterygoid plate between the medial and lateral pterygoid muscles. Electrostimulation (Optional): Utilize a 22G, 10 cm insulated short beveled needle connected to a peripheral nerve simulator. Position confirmed by motor response from the temporalis and masseter muscles. Fluoroscopic-Guided Technique Patient Positioning: Similar to ultrasound guidance, patient lies on their side with the affected side facing upward. C-arm Positioning: Position the C-arm to visualize the foramen ovale. Needle Insertion: Insert the needle under fluoroscopic guidance towards the foramen ovale. Contrast Injection: Confirm needle placement with contrast injection. Anesthetic Administration: Administer local anesthetic and/or neurolytic agents. Clinical Symptoms and Diagnosis Symptoms: Unilateral sharp, stabbing, or burning pain in the mandibular nerve distribution. Pain triggered by activities such as eating, talking, washing the face, or cleaning the teeth. Diagnostic Imaging: MRI or CT scans to identify causes like vascular compression, mass lesions, or fractures. Complications and Considerations Potential Complications: Bleeding, hematoma, infection, and hypersensitivity reaction to the injectate. Serious complications from neurolytic agents like permanent sensory deficit and tissue necrosis. Alternative Treatments: PNS? Radiofrequency or cryoablation for recalcitrant cases. Conclusion Efficacy: Ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance provide precise targeting of the affected nerves, minimizing collateral damage. Safety: Routine use of power Doppler imaging to avoid injury to surrounding vessels. Recommendation: Consider these techniques for patients unresponsive to oral medications or unsuitable for surgery. These show notes provide a comprehensive overview of the discussion, highlighting key points on the anatomy, technique, and clinical considerations for mandibular nerve blocks in cancer patients.

Advocating for Transparency and Oversight in Pain Management Introduction: Welcome back to Painexam, where we delve into the latest advancements and challenges in pain management. Today's episode highlights a significant advocacy effort made by leading Interventional Pain Physicians and industry experts. Summary of Lobbying Effort: On March 20, 2024, a group of esteemed physicians and industry leaders, including Drs. Sean Li, Peter Staats, Mehul J. Desai, David Reece, Hemant Kalia, and David Rosenblum, alongside industry figures Mark Stultz, Christopher Conrad, and Cecelia Ruble, visited Capitol Hill to advocate for greater oversight and transparency in independent review organizations. Despite their busy schedules, they recognized the critical need to address the 0% turnover rate in appeals for denied treatments, which disproportionately affects patients seeking alternatives to surgery and opioid medication. Importance of Transparency: The issue extends beyond pain management, impacting patients across various medical fields. While opioid therapy may seem economically favorable initially, the long-term consequences, including delayed care and medication side effects, often outweigh the costs. The group emphasized the importance of an unbiased review for accessible, cutting-edge treatments to improve patient outcomes and reduce overall healthcare expenses. Purpose of the Lobbying Effort: Contrary to pushing any specific company agenda, the initiative aims to highlight the challenges patients and physicians encounter in securing optimal treatment outcomes. For Board Prep, Ultrasound Training and more, visit: Dr. David Rosenblum, a pioneer in interventional pain medicine, particularly in ultrasound- guided procedures and regenerative pain medicine, underscores the necessity of addressing these issues for the benefit of countless patients suffering from chronic pain. Conclusion and Actionable Steps: To schedule a consultation with Dr. Rosenblum, patients can visit www.AABPpain.com or contact the Brooklyn Office at 718-436-7246 or the Garden City Office at 516-482-7246. Stay tuned for more updates on advancements and advocacy efforts in pain management. Outro: Thank you for joining us on this episode of Painexam.

In this episode, Garden City (long island) based Pain Physician, Dr. David Rosenblum explores Peripheral Nerve Stimulation, Biologics and Ablations for hip pain. He reviews a case report of a 67-year-old female with a history of a mechanical fall causing injury to her lumbar spine and pelvis resulting in hip and pelvic pain is presented. The patient had hypertrophic non-union of the right iliac wing fracture and displacement of the pubic symphysis and right sacroiliac joint. Medications were not effectively managing her pain, so she sought treatment at a pain management clinic. The patient underwent diagnostic obturator and femoral articular nerve branch injections, as well as a middle cluneal nerve steroid injection, all guided by fluoroscopy and ultrasound. She experienced improvement in her pain following these procedures. Subsequently, she had a peripheral nerve stimulator (PNS) trial and underwent implantation of leads targeting the right middle cluneal nerve and right obturator and femoral articular nerve branches. The patient reported significant relief in both the posterior and anterior distribution of her pain. Her activities of daily living improved, and she was able to sleep without pain after the PNS implantation. The successful use of combined fluoroscopy and ultrasound in targeting the specific nerves and replicating the patient's pain distribution before permanent PNS implantation is highlighted in this case. Additionally, the show notes mention an events calendar located at this link: https://www.nrappain.org/pages/ultrasound-course-calendar .
