A Prospective, Interventional, Comparative Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Using Combined Platelet-Rich Plasma and Platelet-Rich Fibrin Over Standard Cleaning and Dressing in Chronic Wounds

Chronic wounds are defined as wounds that have failed to proceed through the orderly process that produces satisfactory anatomic and functional integrity or that have proceeded through the repair process without producing an adequate anatomic and functional result. The majority of wounds that have not healed in three months are considered chronic, although a duration as low as four weeks has been used to indicate chronicity. Our study aimed to compare the efficacy of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) versus standard cleaning and dressing as a regenerative medicine strategy to promote healing in chronic wounds.
