How PRP may help
PRP may be discussed for selected shoulder arthritis patients when symptoms persist despite therapy, activity changes, and other non-operative strategies.
Evidence note
Shoulder arthritis PRP research is smaller than knee arthritis research. A randomized, double-blind trial compared leukocyte-poor PRP with hyaluronic acid for glenohumeral osteoarthritis. Kirschner et al., 2022
When to schedule
Schedule if shoulder arthritis affects sleep, daily activity, lifting, or overhead motion.
