Abstract

Purpose: Sacroiliac joint injections (SJI) under Computed Tomography guidance for treatment of sacroiliac joint pain. Subject and method: Prospective research on 28 patients who received SJI under Computed Tomography guidance from 6/2021 to 6/2022 at 108 Military Central Hospital. Results: The majority of sacroiliac joint pain patients are female (89.2%), mostly on one side, with middle-aged patients making up 78.5%. Discomfort is most often recorded in the hips (100%), crotch (32%), and thighs (25%). Nine out of 28 cases (32%) discovered sacroiliac joint pain after lumbar fusion. VAS post-injection is 3.25±1.1. VAS, ODI post-injection show clear improvement with p<0.05. The average X-ray radiation dose is 1.1 mSv. The average time for technical execution on 1 side is 7.24 minutes, and 2 sides is 10.5 minutes. Conclusion: SJI under Computed Tomography guidance has apparent pain-relieving effects, short technical execution time, high precision, low x-ray radiation, and improves patients’ quality of life.
