Researchers are studying the safety and effectiveness of caudal analgesia, a treatment for chronic lumbosacral pain, in patients who take anticoagulants for blood vessel conditions. Since anticoagulants can increase the risk of bleeding, their use often limits the ability to perform caudal analgesia. This study aims to analyze clinical data to understand the outcomes and possible complications of using caudal analgesia in these anticoagulated chronic pain patients. The intervention being evaluated is caudal analgesia, a procedure aimed at relieving chronic lower back pain. The study involves patients who continue anticoagulation therapy without interruption, assessing whether caudal analgesia can be safely administered without stopping anticoagulants. The goal is to provide pain relief while minimizing risks associated with bleeding. Participants will be monitored for changes in their pain levels using a validated Numeric Pain Rating scale over 12 weeks. Researchers will evaluate treatment effectiveness and safety by tracking pain scores and any complications that arise. The study focuses on adult chronic pain patients who receive caudal analgesia, with a total follow-up period of at least 12 weeks.
