Overview

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of biofiller PRP, on pain, range of motion, quality of life, and femoral cartilage thickness in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Patients who are admitted and diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis based on anamnesis, physical examination and imaging methods are included in the study

Ten ml of the patient's blood was drawn in a syringe pre-filled with 1 mLacid citrate dextrose(anticoagulant). It wascentrifuged firstat 3500 rotations per minute (RPM)for 15 min and thenat 1500 RPM for 5 min. The upper part,i.e.,platelet-poor plasma (PPP) waswithdrawn in a 5 mL syringe. PPP wasincubated in hot water at 100a °C for 5 min and then cooled in a refrigerator for 5 min.The PRP injection was performed in a standardized manner and injected into the IA surface of the affected knee joint

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Change from baseline in pain on the VAS at month 3

Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is used to measure and monitor the intensity of pain. This is a 10 cm ruler that describes painlessness at one end and the most severe pain at the other. A patient scores his/her pain from 0 to 10.

Time frame: Baseline and month 3

Secondary Outcomes

Western OntarioMacMaster (WOMAC) Change from baseline in pain and physical functions on Western OntarioMacMaster scale at month

It is widely used in studies with knee OA patients. The scale, each question of which is evaluated with a 5-point Likert scale, consists of 24 questions. It is filled by patients. There are pain, physical function and stiffness subscales. Pain subscale is evaluated with five items and is scored between 0-20. The hardness subscale has two items and is scored between 0-8. Function subscale consists of 17 items and is scored between 0-68. A high score indicates poor function, pain or stiffness.

Time frame: Baseline and month 3

Femoral cartilage thickness Change from baseline in knee joint on the measuring the femoral cartilage thickness at month 3

Femoral cartilage thickness is measured by the same physician by placing the probe axially in the suprapatellar region by ultrasonography while the patient is lying on his back and the knees are in maximum flexion. The distance between the thin hyperechoic line at the synovial cartilage interface and the sharp hyperechoic line at the cartilage-bone interface is defined as cartilage thickness

Time frame: Baseline and month 3
