As more and more doctors train to be proficient in stem cell therapy, many seek to increase their revenues and expand their practices. At Adimarket, we aim to fulfill the needs of doctors and help their patients in the most efficient way possible. However, we have other goals as well. We hope that one day, PRP and stem cell therapies will replace certain medical procedures, making them more effective and convenient. One such procedure we hope to eliminate is hip replacements.
Natural Tissue Regeneration in Orthopedics
Natural tissue regeneration has been a focus for many scientists for years, particularly in orthopedics, the study of bones and muscles. Utilizing a patient’s stem cells to regrow or replace cartilage can be a godsend for treating conditions such as osteoarthritis, as well as sports and other injuries. Many wonder if we can heal muscle and joint damage using PRP and stem cell therapy, just how much more can we potentially heal?
Potential of Stem Cell Therapy Over Hip Replacement Surgery
Based on current evidence, it may be possible in the near future to consider PRP and stem cell therapy over hip replacement surgery. A 2016 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences showed that stem cells successfully grew on an artificial hip joint. The researchers even created a therapy that, combined with stem cells, could lower the risk of arthritis recurrence in the joint.
What Treatments Are We Already Utilizing?
While seeing hip replacements become a thing of the past is a potential occurrence in the near future, the science is not there yet. Adimarket is working to provide the tools necessary to utilize both PRP and stem cell therapy in treating sports injuries, wounds, and orthopedic applications.
In fact, the two therapies are in no way mutually exclusive. In many cases, both PRP and stem cell therapies can be utilized simultaneously, as long as the stem cells come from the patient themselves. This helps reduce the risk of rejection.
PRP can be extracted from the blood, and the stem cells can come from bone marrow or fat tissue. These are then injected directly into the treatment site, and we simply wait for the magic to happen.
Adimarket Has Got You Covered
If you are a doctor or own your practice, we urge you to consider adding PRP and stem cell therapies to your treatment options. Adimarket provides a wide range of technology and equipment designed to give patients the best experience and treatment possible.
