PRP
SS,
The Physiatrists at our practice have been using the process for about 8 months with varying success. This is totally anecdotal. Their most successful pt's seem to be the ones that have been the least injured. I.e. the tendonitis, bursitis seem to do well whereas the more traumatized the tissue the less likely it is to help. Unfortunately I don't have any numbers for you and am not sure if and or when they will publish their results. I do know that in my foot and ankle clinic we seem to get the failures for plantar fasciitis and achilles tendonitis. A surgeon with upper extremity issues can be in a bad way. I wish you all the best. If I hear of any consistantly successful protocols I will get them to you. Good luck.
