Percentage change in WOMAC and VAS scores at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and at one year after PRP injection compared to pre-injection levels. On applying paired t-test, P-value <.001, so there is a significant change in mean VAS and WOMAC function score post-injection.

Clinical parameter Time
PREINJ 6 weeks 3 months 6 months 1 yr
WOMAC pain
(A) Mean pain 15.51 4.57 5.49 9.31 13.14
(B) % change 70.6% 64.7% 40% 15.3%
(C) P-value On applying paired t-test P-value < .001, so there is a significant change in mean pain score post-PRP.
WOMAC stiffness
(A) Mean pain 5.51 2.57 3.12 3.80 4.96
(B) % change 63.4% 53.4% 31.15% 10%
(C) P-value On applying paired t-test P-value < .001, so there is a significant change in mean WOMAC stiffness score.
WOMAC function
(A) Mean pain 57.96 16.63 17.84 37.43 54.27
(B) % change 71% 69.3% 35.4% 6.4%
(C) P-value On applying paired t-test, P-value < .001, so there is a significant change in mean WOMAC function score post-injection.
VAS score
(A) Mean pain 6.06 2.24 2.49 3.14 4.80
(B) % change 64% 59% 48.2% 20.8%
(C) P-value On applying paired t-test P-value < .001, so there is a significant change in mean VAS score.
