Platelet Rich Plasma Combined With Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Stage 3 and 4 Stress Injury

March 7, 2024 updated by: Liaocheng People's Hospital

The Efficacy and Safety of Platelet Rich Plasma Combined With Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Treatment of Patients With Stage 3 and 4 Stress Injury

This study is an open-label, single-center trial which aim to evaluate of efficacy and safety of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in stage 3 and 4 stress injury.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The 2019 edition of the International Guidelines for Clinical Prevention and Treatment of Stress Injury states that stress injury, as a globally prevalent health issue, significantly reduces the quality of life for patients and their families, increases economic burden, and leads to significant expenditure on medical resources. In recent years, the incidence and mortality rate of pressure injuries in hospitalized patients have been increasing year by year. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find a more effective treatment method for pressure injuries in clinical practice. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (huMSCs) have immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) can also secrete various nutritional factors, which can effectively promote wound healing. Therefore, the combination of the two may be a more effective treatment method for pressure injuries. At present, there are few reports on the combination of PRP and huMSCs for the treatment of pressure injury. In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of PRP combined with huMSCs for stage 3 and 4 pressure injuries, In order to promote their clinical application.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (huMSCs)
Inject 3ml PRP+huMSCs (5 × 106) into the edge and bottom of the wound, with 0.5 ml at each point and a distance of approximately 1-3 cm between each point. Then, apply autologous PRP gel (PRP+thrombin mixture, 2ml) evenly on the wound, with a thickness of about 2mm.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH)
Time Frame: Baseline,1,2,4 and 6 weeks
The scale includes three dimensions: wound area, exudate volume, and tissue type. The total score of the three dimensions was indicated the healing of pressure injury and ranged from 0 to 17 points, with 0 points indicating wound healing. The PUSH score decreased, indicating improvement. The total score increased, indicating deterioration. Multiple pressure injuries in the same patient were evaluated separately.
Baseline,1,2,4 and 6 weeks
Change from baseline in Determination of growth factor content
Time Frame: Baseline,1, 2 and 3 weeks
Serum epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were detected during treatment.
Baseline,1, 2 and 3 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Wound healing time
Time Frame: up to 4 months
The wound healing standard is wound closure and epithelial tissue coverage, and the wound healing time refers to the time from the date of direct treatment to wound healing for the patient. The wound healing time was recorded through dressing change in outpatient department or phone call follow-up.
up to 4 months
Positive rate of bacterial culture
Time Frame: Baseline and 2 weeks
The patient's wound secretions were collected for bacterial culture on the day of stem cell treatment and 2 weeks after treatment.
Baseline and 2 weeks

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety evaluation
Time Frame: up to 1 week
Any adverse events that occur during the treatment process must be recorded in detail. The record of adverse events should include a description of the adverse event and all related symptoms, the time of occurrence, severity, duration, measures taken, and the final outcome and outcome, as well as an evaluation of the possible correlation between the adverse event and treatment.
up to 1 week
