Official title
Adipose Derived Stromal Cell Transplantation as an Adjunct to Arthroscopy in Treatment of Effusion Synovitis of the Early Degenerative Knee
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to study the clinical outcomes and effects of the injection of fat-derived stem cells (the scientific name being "adipose derived autologous stem cell transplantation (ADAT)") as an addition to knee arthroscopy in the treatment of knee swelling and pain associated with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis. Management of this condition remains a pervasive problem within orthopaedics. Lipogems is a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved technique. Lipogems is the name of the technology used to obtain stem cells from fat that will be aspirated/removed by suction from the abdomen. Fat will be processed to obtain stem cells which will then be injected into the knee after the physician completes knee arthroscopy. The study that we are asking patients to enroll in is important because it will attempt to answer the question about whether fat-derived stem cells added to knee arthroscopy is better, worse or no different than knee arthroscopy alone. Currently, without this study, we do not have an answer to this question.
