Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in Total Knee Replacement

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the effect of platelet rich plasma (PRP), a derivative of a patient's whole blood, on short-term patient outcomes following total knee replacement (TKR). The hypothesis is that change in short-term hemoglobin (Hgb) levels is less dramatic in patients who undergo TKR with the addition of PRP when compared to patients who undergo TKR without PRP.
