What this study is

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of interlaminar steroid injections at treating pain in lumbar radiculopathy at varying doses, to evaluate the efficacy of interlaminar steroid injections at improving quality of life and function in lumbar radiculopathy at varying doses, and to evaluate difference in efficacy between triamcinolone and dexamethasone interlaminar steroid injections at treating pain in lumbar radiculopathy at varying doses, with the overarching hypotheses that there is no difference in reported pain reduction, quality of life, or function among patients receiving low, moderate, or high doses, and no difference in reported pain reduction between triamcinolone and dexamethasone.
