Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the analgesic efficacy of biaculoplasty + intradiscal leucocyte poor PRP and biaculoplasty + intradiscal steroid in patients with chronic discogenic low back pain at 3,6 and 12 months after the procedure using NRS (Numerical rating scale) Timepoint: To compare the analgesic efficacy of biaculoplasty + intradiscal leucocyte poor PRP and biaculoplasty + intradiscal steroid in patients with chronic discogenic low back pain at 3,6 and 12 months after the procedure using NRS (Numerical rating scale)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Compare functional improvement using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) in patients with chronic discogenic low back pain after biaculoplasty + intradiscal leucocyte poor PRP and biaculoplasty + intradiscal steroid at 3,6 and 12 months after the procedure. Evaluate quality of life changes using SF12 at 3,6 and 12months Assess patient satisfaction using Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) scale To identify predictors of treatment success in each group. Monitor adverse events. Timepoint: 3, 6, 12 months
