Patients with moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis are, generally, either eventual or immediate knee replacement candidates. The U.S. is expected to hit 3.5m operations by 2030!
This big surgery, which involves amputation of the existing joint and insertion of a knee replacement device, can result in complications including blood clots, infection, heart attack, stroke, and increased chronic pain. Despite this being such a common procedure, you might be surprised to learn that studies have shown that many patients receive almost no relief and some feel worse after having this surgery. The trend of younger and more active patients having advanced levels of knee OA/surgery is probably driving this increased level of dissatisfaction with quality of life post-surgery.
The good news is that our orthobiologic treatments using your OWN regenerative properties found in your plasma and bone marrow aspirate concentrate (bmac) can often help you either avoid surgery, or at a minimum, delay the need for surgery.
