简要总结
The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy up to 12 months of two different types of PRP (PRP with leukocytes vs PRP depleted of leukocytes) in the echo-guided infiltrative treatment of hip OA by including 230 patients in the study and evaluating them through subjective (using the WOMAC score as the primary outcome) and objective clinical scores.
详细描述
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has recently emerged as an attractive biological approach to address joint degeneration. It has gained increasing attention because of the high concentration of growth factors, cytokines, and bioactive molecules stored in platelet-rich α-granules, which have been shown to participate in joint tissue homeostasis, being involved in both healing processes and immunoregulation and modulation of inflammation. Several preparation methods are available for PRP, which can give products with different compositions and characteristics.The presence of leukocytes is one of the most debated aspects of PRP efficacy, and is used as one of the main discriminators to distinguish different PRPs.
Patients with OA of the hip will be included in a randomized controlled, double-blind trial, in which one group of patients will be treated with 3 infiltrations of PRP with leukocytes and one group will be treated instead with 3 infiltrations of PRP without leukocytes. A total of 230 patients will be included and will undergo infiltrative treatment after collecting informed consent for study participation. Patients will be clinically evaluated before the injection procedure and at 2-6-12 months after treatment by the medical staff.

时间窗: 6 months follow-up
It's a standardized and widely used questionnaire to assess the condition of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee and includes assessment of pain, stiffness, and physical function of the joints. It can be administered to the patient. It measures 5 items for pain (range 0-20), two for stiffness (range 0-8), and 17 for functional limitation (range 0-68) that mainly relate to activities of daily living (e.g., getting up from a sitting position, bending over, going up and down stairs etc.); The score is then normalized on a 0-100 scale. Higher values indicate a worse outcome
