No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a chronic inflammatory condition with severe painful ulcers. We hypothesize that Platelet-rich plasma(PRP) therapy derived from patient's own blood has a high concentration of endogenous growth factors, which will activate the wound-healing cascade stimulating formation of new blood vessels and collagen in PG ulcers.The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of autologous Platelet rich Plasma(PRP) therapy for the treatment of chronic Pyoderma Gangrenosum(PG). Researchers will also compare the efficacy of PRP therapy when used as a topical solution versus injections in and around the target ulcer/s.

Conditions

  • Pyoderma Gangrenosum

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Platelet rich plasma therapy

Approximately 30 ml of the patient's blood sample will be drawn from a peripheral vein in ACD (acid citrate dextrose) tubes. A double spin method will be used for the preparation of PRP. Note this is not a device or a medicine as this is autologous plasma.
