2021 Annual Meeting Knee Access Pass-Public Perceptions and Preferences Regarding the Use of Stem Cell Therapies in Orthopaedic Surgery

Public Perceptions and Preferences Regarding the Use of Stem Cell Therapies in Orthopaedic Surgery

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses a study published in the Arthroscopy Journal that explores the public's understanding and preferences regarding the use of stem cell therapies for joint and tendon disorders. The study found that a majority of respondents believed in the effectiveness of stem cell therapies and considered them to be the best treatment option for chronic degenerative orthopedic conditions. Factors associated with this belief included younger age, lower income, and familiarity with stem cells. However, high costs and potential side effects were identified as significant deterrents. The video emphasizes the importance of patient education, setting realistic expectations, and providing evidence transparency in counseling patients seeking stem cell therapies. (approx. 187 words)
