VI PRP-PRO | PRP tubes enable the simple, safe and fast preparation of blood components (e.g. platelet gel, fibrin gel, bone marrow cell gel) and is intended for the use of autologous blood products.
The reason for using this medical device is to administer locally high concentrations of growth factors as found in platelet concentrate. It may also provide cells that are involved in repair or support tissue and temporary fibrin scaffolding and cell migration.
The PRP tubes must be used by specially trained medical personnel and possibly under medical supervision.
The therapeutic efficacy depends on the intrinsic quality and preparation of the blood components. This medical device enables the production and
Activation (gelling) of the blood components. VI PRP-PRO is not therapeutic in itself. The most important indications for the use of this
Medical device is the treatment of acute wounds, chronic skin ulcers, subcutaneous or mucocutaneous tissue and bone injuries, subcutaneous injections/fillers and strengthening of hair roots.
The method based on this preparation is called "BUFFY COAT" and requires PRP tubes that differ from the "EMPTY TEST" (simple vacuum blood collection tube), which does not produce a concentrate but a serum. These tubes are not able to sediment the blood with high precision and produce a high PRP concentration. Furthermore, they do not allow only the intermediate layer (PRP) to be extracted.
