Comparison of the Effects of Single Versus Triple Injections of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis

May 7, 2024 updated by: Izmir Democracy University
80 patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis were randomized into two groups: patients in Group 1 received a single intraarticular injection of PRP whereas those in group 2 were administered three intraarticular injections of PRP within an interval of 2 weeks between each application. Patients were evaluated before the treatment and at the 6 month after the treatment with a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and The Western Ontario and MacMaster Universities (WOMAC) Osteoarthritis Index.
