Using this encouraging data, Dr Sampson is planning a multi-center study on PRP for knee osteoarthritis.

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009ESPN discusses Platelet Rich Plasma and Troy Polamalu of the Pittsburgh Steelers
Sunday, September 20th, 2009ESPN this morning discussed
the use of PRP to accelerate the recovery time for pro bowl defensive player Troy Polamalu. Troy suffered a knee MCL tear which is a non-surgical injury that can take anywhere up to 8 weeks to heal. Hopefully with PRP he can cut the recovery process in half. PRP works quicker when there is a new injury to maximize the ongoing healing process.
