I trained with Mautner. One of the best in the field of orthobiologics.Cell-based versus corticosteroid injections for knee pain in osteoarthritis: a randomized phase 3 trial - Nature Medicine
The multicenter phase 3 trial of stem cell therapy for osteoarthritis (MILES) for knee pain revealed that cell therapies showed no significant difference in knee pain outcomes, compared to corticosteroid injections, 1 year following treatment.
Biggest reach of any scientific journal. Top 3 at least.
I am not too terribly often doing PRP for OA. I use it quite a lot for RC tendons, the subacromial bursa and the trochanteric bursa and glute tendons.
Works well in my world for hip labrum as well
I find this fascinating, personally. I had a small labral defect that wasn't a big deal for several months. Probably could have responded to PRP?? I caught it and developed a huge labral tear (1/4 or diameter). The mechanical symptoms were so bad there's no way any secret sauce would have done anything. Choosing the right patient at the right time seems like it would be difficult, particularly with the suboptimal visualization of the structure with both U/S and MR (arthrogram). For reference, my mediocre/fair U/S diagnostic skills easily identified the labral defect I had, but no frame of reference for the severity/amount of labrum involved. The MR arthrogram showed a tear, but poorly classified the size of the tear.
Do you inject IA or specifically into the labrum for this?
Works well = Make$ bank.
lol, I don’t think $700 is “making bank” but ok dude
Fluoro, intra-articular, closer to femoral head than regular IA injection, high concentration pure prp
in my experience in the private world, tricare covers PRP for lateral epicondylitis and knee OA. Thats it.
Doesn’t cover anything where I’m at
Neither for me.
