Objective: This study aims at evaluating the clinical effects of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Hyaluronic Acid (HA) as individual treatments for mild to moderate Osteoarthritis (OA) it also examines potential synergistic PRP in combination with HA.Research continues emerge examining therapeutic efficacy HA autologous injectable joint arthritis.However, there is a paucity research investigating combining on pain functional status patients OA.Design: In this multi-center, randomized,...
BACKGROUND: Chronic low back pain is one of the most common causes disability, affecting more than 600 million people worldwide with major social and economic costs. Current treatment options include conservative, surgical, minimally invasive interventional approaches. Novel therapeutic continue to develop, targeting biological cascades involved in degenerative processes prevent spinal surgical procedures. Both intradiscal platelet-rich plasma (PRP) bone marrow concentrate (BMC) applications...
Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) preparations are prepared at point of care. Centrifugation cellular density separation sequesters a fresh unit blood into three main fractions: platelet-poor (PPP) fraction, stratum rich in platelets (platelet concentrate) and, bioformulation dependent, also leukocyte and erythrocyte fractions. The employment autologous platelet concentrates facilitates the biological potential to accelerate support numerous activities that can lead tissue repair,...
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent condition characterized by the progressive deterioration of entire joint and has emerged as prominent contributor to disability on global scale. The nature disease its impact function significantly limit mobility daily activities, highlighting substantial influence patients' overall well-being. Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) heterogenous, autologous cell product, containing mesenchymal stem cells, derived from patient's subcutaneous adipose tissue...
Aim: To evaluate the use of a multitarget platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection approach for treatment chronic low back pain (LBP). Materials & Methods: Forty-six patients with more than 12 weeks LBP who failed conservative treatments were injected PRP into facet joints, intervertebral discs, epidural space and/or paravertebral muscles. Visual analog scale and Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire scores measured at baseline predefined intervals. Results: Mean visual was reduced from 8.48 to...
