Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate reduction of pain, gain of function and improvement of life quality by intraoperative applied platelet- rich- plasma ( PRP ) during knee arthroscopy for degeneration and osteoarthritis OA by conducting a randomized- controlled, double-blinded trial ( RCT ) including 58 patients with a follow up of 12 months and pain, assessed by Visual- Analogue Scale (VAS) after 6 months as primary endpoint.
Information will be collected on the pre-op and post-op clinical status of patients with focal cartilage defects of the femoral condyles treated with the BioPoly RS Partial Resurfacing Knee Implant, a permanent orthopaedic implant. The overall aim of the study is to increase the knowledge of patient outcomes such as pain, knee function, level of activity, and overall quality of life after treatment with the device.
