Overview of Regenerative Medicine in Orthopedics

Regenerative medicine is making significant strides in orthopedics, offering innovative solutions for treating musculoskeletal disorders and injuries. This field utilizes advanced techniques to repair, replace, and regenerate damaged bone and joint tissues, aiming to restore function and improve quality of life for patients suffering from conditions like arthritis, tendon injuries, and ligament injuries.

Our Approach

At Coastal Ortho, we believe in the power of innovation to transform healthcare. Our approach focuses on advanced techniques and solutions designed to repair and regenerate damaged tissues, offering new hope for patients with various medical conditions.

Objectives

  • Repair Injured Tissue: Regenerate damaged cartilage, bone, and ligaments.
  • Enhance Healing: Accelerate the natural healing process following injury.
  • Improve Function: Restore mobility and reduce pain in affected joints and bones.

Key Areas of Focus

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: PRP therapy involves using components of your own blood and injecting them into the injured area to accelerate healing. By concentrating platelets and growth factors, PRP can enhance tissue repair and regeneration. This technique is commonly used for musculoskeletal injuries, and chronic pain, offering a natural and minimally invasive option for improving recovery and reducing inflammation.

Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC): Bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) is increasingly used in conjunction with rotator cuff surgery to enhance healing and improve outcomes. BMAC involves harvesting a small amount of bone marrow, usually from the surgical site, concentrating the regenerative cells, and then injecting this concentrate into the site of the injury. In rotator cuff repair, BMAC can accelerate the healing of the repaired tendons by delivering a high concentration of mesenchymal progenitor cells, growth factors, and other bioactive molecules directly to the damaged area. This approach aims to improve tendon-to-bone integration, reduce inflammation, and promote more robust tissue regeneration. As a result, patients may experience quicker recovery times, enhanced functional outcomes, and potentially lower rates of re-tear.

Class IV Laser: In regenerative medicine, class IV lasers play a significant role by promoting tissue repair and accelerating healing processes. Their high energy and precision allow for targeted treatments, which stimulates cellular activity, enhances blood flow, and reduces inflammation. This can be particularly beneficial in promoting the regeneration of damaged tissues and supporting recovery from injuries. The ability of class IV lasers to penetrate deeper into tissues makes them effective for treating conditions such as tendonitis and arthritis. By facilitating faster and more effective healing, class IV lasers contribute to improved patient outcomes and advance the field of regenerative medicine.
