I have had a few people with good relief with the block, and marginal relief with the thermal RF (90 degress, 90seconds, two lesions)
Was thinking of offering them cooled RF, or even switching to cooled right off the bat for all. They are 90+ year old, non-operative candidates with severe disease so I feel bad just telling them nothing else to offer.
I guess my concern is that the cooled lesion is much bigger and possibly destroying the suprascapular artery. I am not sure what the consequences of this would be as its a pretty big vessel?
