Intervention index

The procedures covered by the IPM guidance fall into six main groups according to the type of intervention. See the section on inclusion criteria for more information on the six intervention groups.

• IDET (intra-discal electrothermal therapy)
• Infusion
• Injection
• Nerve blocking procedures
• Neuroablation
• Neuromodulation
