Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma Efficacy in Regenerative Medicine: Product and Quality Control

The document reviewed the efficacy of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in regenerative medicine, particularly in hair regrowth, wound healing, and sports medicine. It found that PRP increased hair density and follicle proliferation in androgenetic alopecia, and was effective in wound healing, especially when combined with materials like hyaluronic acid. However, in sports medicine, evidence was limited due to small sample sizes and inconsistent preparation techniques. The study highlighted the lack of standardization in PRP preparation, which led to variability in clinical outcomes, and emphasized the need for standardized methods and international classifications to improve consistency and efficacy in clinical applications. Despite recommendations, the adoption of these standards was limited by complexity and cost.
