Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses autogenous cells in sports medicine. They mention the FDA's enforcement of orthobiologics and the use of autogenous tissue in treatments. They also talk about the definition of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and the criteria that must be met for a cell to be classified as an MSC. The speaker highlights PRP and adipose as the best options currently available for cellular therapies in sports medicine, with PRP being effective for tendinopathies and leukocyte-poor PRP being effective for early osteoarthritis. They also discuss the benefits of adipose over marrow and share their personal experience treating over 300 athletes. They mention the need for more research and provide examples of studies and evidence supporting the use of cellular therapies. Overall, the speaker believes that cellular therapies show promise and provide safe pain relief, but more research is needed to fully understand their effectiveness.
