This infographic explores the impact of anticoagulants on post-treatment pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis receiving Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections. It delves into the potential adverse reactions linked to different doses of anticoagulants used during PRP preparation, including EDTA-dependent pseudo-thrombocytopenia and associated difficulties in controlling PRP quality. The study evaluates the use of varying doses of sodium citrate (SC) and heparin as anticoagulants and their effects on joint inflammation, pain, and therapeutic outcomes. Key findings indicate that higher doses of anticoagulants are linked with more pain post-injection, while patients with controlled uric acid levels experienced improved outcomes.
