About

This study evaluates effects of PRP and physiotherapy on pain, physical function and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Full description

PRP has been reported to have a low to moderate level of evidence in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) in reducing pain and improving function. Similarly, in individuals with knee osteoarthritis, exercise has been reported to be effective in reducing the pain and improving physical function of the knee OA patient in the short term, and may be even more effective with individual exercise programs. However, there is no study examining the effect of PRP and exercise together. PRP and exercise can be more effective together. The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of physiotherapy on pain, physical function and quality of life in patients with knee OA who underwent PRP injection.
