Study summary

Many systemic reactions occur commonly after spinal steroid injections, especially in patients, and may be associated with underlying disease, such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus, as well as steroid dose and repetition of spinal steroid injection.

Read the detailed description

Evaluate the incidence and types of systemic reactions after spinal steroid injections and to investigate the association of spinal steroid injection with patient demographics, history of previous injections, type and dose of steroid, and method and site of previous and current injections.
