Abstract
The use of orthobiologic modalities such as platelet-rich plasma in orthopedics and sports medicine to deliver high concentrations of naturally occurring biologically active growth factors and proteins to the site of injury is very promising and continues to evolve. Early protection and tissue-specific progressive loading are critical components to successful outcomes following orthobiologic intervention. Each tissue heals and responds differently. Ligament, tendon, muscle, and articular cartilage each have unique healing properties that require tissue-specific loading. The authors have found using a criteria-based loading and exercise progression guided by dynamic imaging when appropriate to further advance the goal-oriented rehabilitation program. Each patient and injured tissue are unique and require specific intervention and rehabilitation.
