ORTHOPEDICS

PRP is used in orthopedics to reduce inflammation and accelerate soft tissue regeneration. The process involves tissue remodeling and regeneration through controlled inflammation, which is induced by the presence of growth factors and leukocytes – PRP LCC.

PRP is a procedure that has been used for a long time to treat musculoskeletal problems, but is quickly gaining popularity for other indications as well.

This treatment enhances the body’s natural ability to “heal itself” and is used to improve healing and shorten recovery time from acute and chronic soft tissue injuries.

The administration of PRP to the site of damage in the musculoskeletal system stimulates the natural healing processes and accelerates them. This is especially important in areas with poor blood supply (such as tendons), because it allows for more effective delivery of essential substances to the tissue. The effect of using platelet-rich plasma is often a quick return to health for the patient. This is the result of many factors, also independent of any actions on the part of both the patient and the doctor, while PRP sometimes allows for a return to full fitness in a much shorter time, without side effects such as scars or adhesions.

The growth factors contained in PRP, including (PDGF – platelet-derived growth factor, EGF – epidermal growth factor, TGF-β – transforming growth factor, VEGF – vascular endothelial growth factor, FGF – fibroblast growth factor) induce:

– Migration of mesenchymal stem cells

– Increased collagen synthesis

-Angiogenesis

– Proliferation of epidermal cells

– Creation of new collagen and elastin fibers

It is perfect for the following diseases:

• tennis elbow
• golfer's elbow
• heel spurs
• injuries/damage to tendons, muscles and ligaments,
• degenerative changes of the Achilles tendon
• injuries and overload changes
• Jumper's knee (inflammation of the patellar tendon)
• runner's knee
• to accelerate the healing process of soft tissues – difficult-to-heal wounds
• goose foot tendinitis
• bursitis of the greater trochanter of the femur
• tendinopathies of the rotator cuff of the shoulder, subacromial impingement syndrome

The procedure is fully autologous, which eliminates the risk of complications, exacerbation of allergies or other ailments1.

The procedure involves a series of 1-3 treatments, each with a 1-month interval. The series can be repeated after 6-12 months, depending on the doctor's recommendation.

In the case of damage to the hyaline tissue, e.g. articular cartilage, or disruption of the continuity of tissue structures, we recommend PRF SYNERGY INNMEDIS SYSTEM™ therapy – IN ORTHOPAEDICS.
