Key PointsQuestionWhat is the effectiveness of radiofrequency denervation added to a standardized exercise program for patients with chronic low back pain? FindingsIn 3 randomized clinical trials including 681 participants with chronic low back pain originating from the facet joints, sacroiliac joints, or a combination of these or the intervertebral disks, radiofrequency denervation combined with exercise compared with exercise alone resulted in either no significant difference in pain intensity, or a difference smaller than the prespecified minimal clinically important difference after 3 months. MeaningThe study findings do not support the use of radiofrequency denervation for chronic low back pain originating from these sources.
