Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  AUTOLOGOUS PRP THERAPY IN GRADE 2 AND GRADE 3 OA KNEE  3 to 5ml PRP (obtained from 30ml of blood through centrifuge) is given in to the affected knee joint(grade 2 and grade 3 OA knee), weekly once for 4 weeks and its effectiveness is recorded in terms of pain relief, cartilage growth and functional improvement in knee joint. post 4 sessions of PRP therapy patient is followed up every month for 3 months to assess the outcome of the therapy. Pain is measured with VAS score, functional improvement is assessed with the help of WOMAC score and cartilage growth is assessed with the help of MRI prior starting the treatment and 3 months post last PRP session.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Improvement in terms of pain control, functional improvement, and cartilage growth.  after baseline evaluation patients are given PRP injections into the affected knee joint every week for 4 weeks,then they are followed up every month for 3 months. At follow up patients are asked about subjective improvement and assessed for functional improvement and at the end of 3 months post last dose of PRP INJECTION structural outcome is evaluated with the help of MRI.

Brief Summary   This is prospective interventional single arm study to know the effectiveness of autologous platelet rich plasma therapy in grade 2 and grade 3 osteoarthritis knee in terms of controlling the pain, improving functions and structural outcome.
Eligible candidates undergo radiographic screening,blood screening. candidates are explained about the whole protocol and consent is taken for the same. baseline assesment is done with VAS, 6MWT, WOMAC SCORES and MRI SCANS.
Four doses of PLATELET RICH PLASMA is given into the affected knee joint each one week apart. VAS, 6MWT, WOMAC SCORES are assessed at 4 weeks,8 weeks and 12 weeks after last dose of prp therapy. Structural outcome in knee joint is assessed with MRI sequences at the end of 12 weeks.

The main objective of this study is to quantify the effect of platelets rich plasma therapy on structural improvement of articular cartilage of knee joint using MRI sequencing in addition to pain relief, functional outcome.
