Influence of Platelet Concentration on the Clinical Outcome of Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections in Knee Osteoarthritis
This study demonstrated that platelet concentration influences the clinical outcome of PRP injections in knee OA treatment. PRP with a higher platelet concentration provides a lower failure rate and higher clinical improvement as compared with PRP with a lower platelet concentration, with overall better results up to 12 months of follow-up in patients with knee OA.
