Study Details

Brief summary:

Prospective, single-center that may go on to being multicenter, randomized trial comparing platelet rich plasma (PRP) versus corticosteroid injection for the treatment of symptoms of Hip osteoarthritis. The purpose of the study is to determine which therapy provides a greater reduction in patient reported outcome measures of pain and function.
