Committee Recommendations
The Prescribing Clinical Network (PCN), during the update of the persistant non-malignant pain guidelines, does not recommend intra-articular hyaluronic acid injection in line with NICE guidance CG177.
It may be suitable for individual patients for whom other pharmacological options have been intolerable or ineffective and who are unable to undergo surgery. Hyaluronic acid for these patients should be made available on an individual basis at the Acute Trust (this is not a Payment by Results Excluded drug and in individual cases GPs should not be asked to prescribe). (Discussed and agreed by PCN in January 2011)
