Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Knee assessment and pain score recorded according to Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) after one week, one month, three months, six months following intraarticular injection and radiation.
All analgesics stopped and only (Arcoxia "etoricoxib" 60 mg, 90 mg) was taken after the procedure, total day dose and frequency will be reported, other analgesics taken by the patient is reported also.
Improvement of daily activities and clinical examination for the studied knees is observed.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Intraarticular injection Group
Patients included in the study had been received 2 ml hyaluronic acid with concentration of 22mg/ml . Platelet rich plasma is arranged by withdrawing 10 ml of patient's personal venous blood, anticoagulant is added, and centrifuged by duo-spin method, at the rate of 3500 rpm for five minutes then injected twice with 2 weeks interval
Intra articular injection Group
Patients included in the study had been received 2 ml high molecular weight (1.476 x 106 average Daltons) hyaluronic acid with concentration of 22mg/ml (OPTIVISC UK hyaluronic acid for intra articular injection). Platelet rich plasma is arranged by withdrawing 10 ml of patient's personal venous blood, anticoagulant is added, and centrifuged by duo-spin method, at the rate of 3500 rpm for five minutes then injected twice with 2 weeks interval. 3 distinct layers are produced by the end of the centrifugation: plasma, buffy coat (platelet) and RBCs, about 3 - 3.5 ml of PRP is produced
at the end with platelet concentration of 1.4 - 1.6 million/μl on average.
Radiofrequency Group
Radiofrequency Generator is a four electrode pain management for interventional pain management procedures. Patients had been placed in the supine position and their knee will be supported by a small pillow placed beneath the popliteal fossa. Fluoroscopic images of knee joint had been obtained. Possible locations of genicular nerves had been determined on the lateral, medial aspects of the lower end of the femoral bone and on the medial aspect of the tibia, under fluoroscopic guidance.
Radiofrequency Group
Thermal radiation is done by Neurotherm 2000 (Neurotherm NT 2000 Radiofrequency (RF) Generator is a four electrode pain management (RF) generator for interventional pain management procedures. Neurotherm's newest system offers accurate independent controls of each electrode through the touch screen interface and output control knobs.), Patients from the radiofrequency (RF) group had been placed in the supine position and their knee will be supported by a small pillow placed beneath the popliteal fossa. Fluoroscopic images of knee joint had been obtained. Possible locations of genicular nerves had been determined on the lateral, medial aspects of the lower end of the femoral bone and on the medial aspect of the tibia, under fluoroscopic guidance.
