What is bone marrow concentrate therapy?
Bone marrow concentrate therapy is a procedure in which bone marrow concentrate is implanted into damaged or diseased tissue to promote regeneration and repair. Bone marrow concentrate consists of undifferentiated cells in the human body with the ability to mature into various cell types such as blood cells, cartilage cells, and repair cells. The bone marrow concentrate (which contains stem cells) can be manipulated to differentiate specifically into bone or cartilage cells. They also promote the regeneration of native bone cells.
Our Approach
Here at Hudson Medical, we use same-day procedures and autologous bone marrow samples, meaning that the bone marrow sample is from the patient’s own body. On the day of the procedure, we take a bone marrow sample from the patient’s hip, concentrate the sample, and re-inject the concentrate into the damaged area along with growth factors and healing factors from the patient’s blood to aid in the body’s natural healing process.
Improvements following procedures should become apparent within 1-3 months, but please note that it may take as long as 6-9 months.
What are the benefits of bone marrow concentrate therapy?
The benefits of bone marrow concentrate therapy include:
+ Autologous: Because the bone marrow concentrate is obtained from the patient’s own body, there is minimal risk of developing an allergic or immunologic reaction to the injectate.
+ Minimally-invasive: Bone marrow concentrate therapy is minimally invasive, meaning that there is minimal risk of complications.
+ Avoidance of invasive surgery: Bone marrow concentrate therapy administered in concert with PRP injections may help patients to avoid joint surger in y or may help decrease dependence on pain medications.
