About this study

After being informed about the study and potential risk, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo study entry.

Each patient received three times intra-articuler injections of PRP under ultrasound guidance, and they were administered once a week.

Baseline: Visual Analog Scale (VAS) including movement, rest and night, the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and SF-36 assessment

1st month: VAS, WOMAC and SF-36 assessment

3rd month: VAS, WOMAC and SF-36 assessment

6th month: VAS, WOMAC and SF-36 assessment

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score at 1-month, 3-month and 6-month

    Time frame: Baseline, 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month

    The VAS is a validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between 'no pain' and 'worst pain'.

  2. Change from baseline Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score at 1-month, 3-month and 6-month

    Time frame: Baseline, 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month

    The scores for each subscale are summed up, with a possible score range of 0-20 for Pain, 0-8 for Stiffness, and 0-68 for Physical Function. Usually a sum of the scores for all three subscales gives a total WOMAC score, however there are other methods that have been used to combine scores.

    Higher scores: worse pain, stiffness, and functional limitations.

  3. Change from baseline SF-36 score at 1-month, 3-month and 6-month

    Time frame: Baseline, 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month

    The SF-36 is a 36-item self-report measure of health-related quality of life. It has eight subscales measuring different domains of health-related quality of life: physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health . Two component scores are derived from the eight subscales: a physical health component score and a mental health component score.

    High scores: good quality of life
