PRP

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in biologic approaches for tissue healing in various musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions and pathologies, resulting in the emergence of the field of Orthobiologics. This interest has been reflected in the significant surge in research in the MSK medicine field, with numerous pre-clinical studies demonstrating promising evidence from a considerable number of basic science pre-clinical studies, which also translated to promising results in clinical studies.Orthobiologics offer diverse non-operative solutions and can also be used in conjunction with surgical approaches. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) products and cell-based therapies (also known as “stem cell therapy”) have been the primary biologic products that have garnered the most attention.The increasing demand from patients to explore non-surgical options before resorting to invasive treatments, coupled with the industry’s investment in accommodating these needs, has heightened interest in orthobiologics. Orthobiologic products have shown potential in regenerating damaged cells and tissues, as well as regulating degenerative processes, and have been effective in improving function and reducing pain in various musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. This has led to a surge in the use of orthobiologic treatments worldwide that appears to be continuously growing.However, the clinical use of biologic therapies has exceeded the available evidence and supportive research, leading to a surplus of information and misinformation. Some clinicians lack sufficient education, experience, and training in this field, with much of the available information provided by the industry. That is why here at The Regenerative Clinic, we only work with those consultants responsible for teaching other clinicians around the world. We stick with the bests.The ESSKA Orthobologics Initiative (ORBIT) initiative aims to investigate the detailed mechanisms of action of different orthobiologics in pre-clinical models to determine their potential disease-modifying effects. By conducting systematic reviews on the various available orthobiologic products in OA, the initiative’s first study analysed the disease-modifying effects of PRP for knee OA. This review included 44 studies involving over 1200 animals, which showed that PRP injections had clinical effects in 80% of the studies and disease-modifying effects in 68% of the studies. Here at The Regenerative Clinic, our patient success rate is 86% based on data pulled from over 3,000 patients.

BMAC utilises the regenerative mesenchymal stem cells collected from bone marrow to aid in the acceleration of healing moderate to severe osteoarthritis and tendon injuries.PRP – Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is also known as Autologous Conditioned Plasma. PRP takes advantage of your blood’s natural healing properties to repair damaged cartilage, tendons, ligaments, muscle and bone. It can reduce pain, improve joint function and help you return quickly to normal activities.nSTRIDE – The treatment is designed to be a single injection therapy in the outpatient clinic setting. Blood is withdrawn like a simple blood test, the clinician processes the patient’s blood to concentrate white blood cells, platelets, and plasma proteins into a small volume of plasma.

New research into the largest number of studies on the effects of Orthobiologics shows that on average 70% of people who underwent Orthobiologic treatments had a favourable result. The outcomes overall show significant improvements like less pain and more mobility in over 70% of treated individuals.The analysis was conducted by Professor Mark Slevin, Professor of Cell Pathology at Manchester Metropolitan University. Professor Slevin analysed eighteen separate peer-reviewed and published global studies. Professor Slevin said, “There is a growing body of scientific evidence that is cementing the case of Orthobiologic treatments, especially for osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal (MSK) trauma, injury and degeneration. We are looking at the start of potentially an entirely new pathway of treatment that will enhance natural healing using the body’s own tissue and delay the need for more serious surgical intervention. We stand at the beginning of a huge new movement and for the very first time we now have a body of scientific evidence to prove the potential of these treatments.”Professor Slevin continues, “We note that although overall success globally is 70% the rate of success measured at The Regenerative Clinic, London is 84% successful for all procedures combined.” Read more Orthobiologic treatments use a person’s own cells which are harvested, processed by clinicians, and then using ultrasound-guided injection, inserted into the problem area.Treatments include:MFAT – Micro-fragmented fat – Adipose Tissue therapy and treatment: a pioneering new treatment for pain and inflammation is a new minimally invasive treatment that harnesses natural repair cells removed from your own body fat to target problems affecting the tendons, ligaments, joints and muscles, including osteoarthritis.BMAC – Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) is a non-surgical, minimally invasive, regenerative treatment that harnesses the natural ability to heal the body through the assistance of biological growth factors.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy takes advantage of your blood’s natural healing properties to repair damaged cartilage, tendons, ligaments, muscle and bone. The PRP procedure involves taking a blood sample from a vein in your arm and then spinning the blood sample in a centrifuge machine to separate the desired components. Your blood is mostly liquid plasma but also contains solid components, including red cells, white cells and platelets. Platelets are vital in the healing of injuries and are separated in the centrifuge machine. The concentration of platelets is injected into your treatment site.PRP treatment is performed in our outpatient clinic and can take up to an hour to complete. The treatment is generally administered at three weekly intervals and since the treatment is prepared from your own blood, it carries a low risk. The number of injections required depends on the injury but can range from two to six injections.PRP Injections are effective in many areas of the body, limbs and joints such as the shoulder, knee, hip, back and spine, leg, foot, arm, elbow, toes, fingers, hand, thumb and neck.This treatment is widely researched and supported in clinical papers.
