Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in Total Knee Replacement: A Prospective, Randomized, Single-blind, Single-center Clinical Study to Evaluate the Effect of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) on Short-term Patient Outcomes Following Total Knee Replacement
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the effect of platelet rich plasma (PRP),
a derivative of a patient's whole blood, on short-term patient outcomes following total knee
replacement (TKR). The hypothesis is that change in short-term hemoglobin (Hgb) levels is
less dramatic in patients who undergo TKR with the addition of PRP when compared to patients
who undergo TKR without PRP.
