Intradiskal Biacuplasty Bests Conventional Conservative Management for Diskogenic Low Back Pain

 
PALM SPRINGS, CALIF.Intradiskal biacuplasty can provide patients who have diskogenic low back pain with long-term improvements in pain scores and physical function, a new Canadian study suggests.
 
Investigators conducted a 12-month study to determine the effectiveness of intradiskal biacuplasty (IDB) combined with conventional medical management (CMM) versus CMM alone for the treatment of diskogenic low back pain (LBP), which affects 26% to 42% of chronic LBP patients
