Summary

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections offer significant pain relief and functional improvement for knee osteoarthritis patients. This review summarizes evidence supporting PRP

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Regenerative Medicine

Background:

  • Knee osteoarthritis is a prevalent degenerative condition with substantial patient impact.
  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains growth factors that may stimulate cartilage regeneration.
  • The therapeutic efficacy of PRP for knee osteoarthritis remains under investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive review of current research on PRP for knee osteoarthritis.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of intra-articular PRP injections in managing knee osteoarthritis symptoms.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of recent studies examining platelet-rich plasma therapy.
  • Analysis of clinical outcomes, including pain reduction and functional improvement.

Main Results:
