ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To study the therapeutic effect of autologous platelet-rich plasma(PRP) on joint injury. 【Methods】 Selected patients with joint injury treated in the Department of Transfusion Medicine of General Hospital of Southern Theatre Command of PLA from 2019 to 2020 were enrolled as the research objects, including 5 patients with shoulder joint injury, 34 patients with knee joint injury and 9 patients with ankle joint injury. All patients were treated with PRP injection at the injury site. The functional score and VAS score before and after treatment were compared. 【Results】 After 6 months of treatment, the CMS score and VAS of 5 patients with shoulder joint injury after treatment were (83.00±5.39) and (1.60±0.40), better than those before treatment (60.00±7.58)and (4.20±0.49)(P<0.05); The Lysholm knee score and VAS of 34 patients with knee joint injury after treatment were (80.73±2.43) and (2.07±0.24), better than those before treatment(50.30±2.96) and (4.28±0.33) (P<0.05); The AOFAS Ankle Hindfoot Scale and VAS of 9 patients with ankle joint injury after treatment were (68.44±4.59) and (2.56±0.53), better than those before treatment (42.67±4.57) and (4.89±0.63) (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 For common joint injury sites, the clinical effect of using PRP injection is significant, which can effectively relieve pain and improve motor function, which is worthy of clinical application.
