Platelet-Rich Plasma Reduces Sternal Wound Infection Risk
The use of autologous platelet-rich plasma following cardiac surgery was associated with a significantly reduced incidence of sternal wound complications – and with a 50% reduction in the costs associated with such complications – in a study of 2,000 patients.
Platelet Gel in Cutaneous Radiation Dermatitis
Numerous studies and clinical findings have demonstrated that topical, non-transfusional plasma-rich platelet gel is able to accelerate the regeneration and repair of tissues through the action of the various growth factors contained within the alpha granules of platelets. This study evaluates the efficacy of autologous platelet gel, chosen for its limited cost and ease of preparation, in chronic cutaneous radiation dermatitis.
Platelet Gel: Applications in Dental Regenerative Surgery
The aim of this study was to evaluate, through three-dimensional X-ray monitoring, the amount of bone obtained after bone regeneration treatment with platelet gel from autologous PRP.
Intramyocardial Autologous Bone Marrow Cell Transplantation for Ischemic Heart Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of intramyocardial bone marrow cell (BMC) transplant therapy for ischemic heartdisease (IHD).
Long-Term Follow-Up after Autologous Skeletal Myoblast Transplantation in Ischaemic Heart Disease
Our long-term data confirm the findings of the MAGIC study.
PRP as a New Approach to Prevent Infection: Preparation and in Vitro Antimicrobial Properties of PRP
In this study, we disclose a new strategy that may be effective in preventing implant-associated infection based on the potential antimicrobial properties of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Due to its well-studied properties for promoting healing, PRP (a biological product) has been increasingly used for clinical applications including orthopaedic surgeries, periodontal and oral surgeries, maxillofacial surgeries, plastic surgeries, sports medicine, etc.
An Orthopedic Tissue Adhesive for Targeted Delivery of Intraoperative Biologics
One emerging therapeutic trend in orthopedics is the use of intraoperative biologics (IOB), such as bone marrow (BM) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP), to stimulate healing. Here, we introduce the application of the biomaterial chondroitin sulfate succinimidyl succinate (CS-NHS) to deliver IOB in a hydrogel adhesive.
Autologous Bone Marrow Concentrate: Review and Application of a Novel Intra-Articular Orthobiologic for Cartilage Disease
The potential of cell-based orthobiologic injection therapies (pertaining to therapeutic injectables that aim to restore the biologic environment and/or structural components of diseased or damaged musculoskeletal tissue) is of tremendous interest for younger, more active patients, and is even more appealing in that such therapy can be delivered at point-of-care in the clinic during an office visit.
