Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is autologous blood which has been centrifuged to separate the supernatant resulting in a solution with high concentration of platelets. Injection of PRP stimulates cell growth and can has been proven safe and effective for uses in orthopedics, dermatology, and gynecology. Despite the relative paucity of data, the use of PRP as a therapy for sexual dysfunction and genitourinary symptoms in the setting of menopause has been patented as the O-Shot and V-Shot. This is a single-blinded randomized control trial to determine if PRP injections into the anterior vaginal wall improve sexual functioning in women diagnosed with the genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) characterized by vaginal dryness/irritation.
This prospective double-blinded randomized placebo control study aims to determine if In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) outcomes are improved by ovarian platelet-rich plasma injections (oPRP) for women diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Women with DOR notoriously have the lowest chance of pregnancy and live birth compared to age-matched peers with a normal or robust ovarian reserve.
The purpose of our study is to examine the effect of platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) injection on the short-term resolution of post-injury inflammation (biomarkers) and improvement in joint function in patients with acute ACL injury. This RCT has been powered based on the questionnaire KOOS Jr. but it is considered a 'pilot study' in terms of the lab analysis proposed.
Patients will have ovarian PRP treatments and embryo development will be observed using time-lapse imaging and AI software.
A Phase 1 Open-Label, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Intravitreally Administered VP-001 in Participants with Confirmed PRPF31 Mutation-Associated Retinal Dystrophy
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of PRP/PPP/BMAC application on functional outcomes after hip arthroscopy to address acetabular labral pathologies. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does PRP/PPP/BMAC application improve functional outcomes after hip arthroscopy to address acetabular labral pathologies? 2. Does PRP/PPP/BMAC application reduce the arthritic burden as measured by functional outcomes following hip arthroscopy to address labral pathologies with concomitant PRP/PPP/BMAC application?
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and side effects of intralesional collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) injected into the Peyronies Disease (PD) plaque after receiving prior treatment with intralesional Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections.
The glenohumeral joint is the third most common large joint to be affected by OA. Conservative treatments include physical activity, corticosteroid injections, and medications. PRP is an emerging treatment that has shown efficacy in different musculoskeletal conditions. The use of PRP for glenohumeral OA has been described sparingly in the literature but has shown efficacy in a couple studies and case reports. However, all of the previous studies investigating PRP for glenohumeral OA have focused on low-dose PRP preparations (\~3X), and none have compared PRP treatment to saline treatment. This study aims to compare outcomes following single injections of low-dose PRP, high-dose PRP, or saline in patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis.
The purpose of this study is to determine if platelet-rich plasma is superior to steroid/anesthetic for the treatment of sacroiliac joint pain.
There are no current or past RCT comparing biologic augments for meniscal repair. There is good data supporting both the use of BMVP of the intercondylar notch and intra-articular PRP injections for augmentation of meniscal repair. However, the effectiveness of these augmentation methods with respect to each other has never been investigated. The knowledge gained will allow us to potentially influence and adapt protocols to treat this particular patient population. Additionally, resources available at our institution provide a supportive framework with which to maintain contact with patients after hospital discharge. These key factors will allow us to perform a robust analysis of this population, to include outcomes measures of function as well as meniscal repair failure and reoperation rate. The proposed interventional aim to compare meniscal repair augmentation methods is novel, as the direct comparison of these outcome measures has not been previously described. Because of the known benefit of biologic augmentation of meniscal repair, the investigators hypothesize that the repair failure rate for both cohorts will be lower than the reported repair failure rate for isolated tears without biologic augmentation; the investigators also hypothesize that BMVP of the intercondylar notch will clinically be significantly better than intra-articular PRP injection. The basis behind this hypothesis is in vivo evidence as well as a small RCT supporting the use of BMVP as augmentation for meniscal repair procedures.
