The Impact of Procedural Awareness of Knee Injections for Osteoarthritis on Patient Perceptions of Effectiveness
Sponsor: ArthroBiologix Inc.
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether outcomes for patients receiving intra-articular platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections for knee osteoarthritis are influenced by observation of the preparatory steps to the procedure. The viewing of the steps involved in the administration of PRP may increase the effectiveness of the treatment in comparison to patients who have not observed the preparatory steps.
