Hyaluronic Acid vs Platelet Rich Plasma: Prospective Double-blind Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Clinical Outcomes and the Effects on Intra-articular Biology for the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
In this, prospective, double-blind study, patients with mild to moderate symptomatic knee osteoarthritis will be randomized to receive either a series of leukocyte poor, platelet-rich plasma or hyaluronic acid injections under ultrasound guidance. Clinical data in the form of subjective outcome measures will be collected pre-treatment and at four time intervals across a 1-year period. Synovial fluid will also collected for analysis of pro- and anti-inflammatory markers pre-treatment, and at 12 and 24 weeks.
