Canadian Specialist Hospital in Dubai offers advanced Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy as a cutting-edge, non-operative treatment for various musculoskeletal conditions. This innovative approach harnesses the body's natural healing properties to promote recovery and reduce pain.
PRP therapy is a regenerative medicine technique that uses a concentrated form of the patient's own blood platelets to accelerate healing. The process involves:
1. Drawing a small amount of the patient's blood
2. Processing the blood in a centrifuge to isolate and concentrate platelets
3. Injecting the platelet-rich plasma into the affected area
PRP contains growth factors and bioactive proteins that stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.
At Canadian Specialist Hospital, PRP therapy is used to treat a wide range of conditions, including:
- Osteoarthritis of various joints (hip, knee, shoulder, elbow, ankle)
- Joint pain
- Tendon injuries (e.g., torn Achilles tendon)
- Tendonitis
- Ligament injuries
- Muscle sprains
- Tennis elbow
- Soft tissue sports injuries
PRP therapy may help patients avoid surgical intervention for certain conditions if treated early enough.
The PRP therapy procedure at Canadian Specialist Hospital typically involves:
1. Initial consultation
2. Blood draw from a vein in the arm
3. Processing of blood to extract platelet concentration
4. Injection of platelets into the affected site (with or without ultrasound guidance)
5. The entire process takes about 30 minutes and is performed in an outpatient setting
