Clinical Procedure

CLINICAL PROCEDURE FOR
REGENERATIVE THERAPY

These are the steps that our patients follow leading to their therapy.

2. APPOINTMENT

Before conducting the treatment, the doctor must be consulted in order to evaluate the specific case to be treated. The treatment process is explained in detail.

During this consultation, a date is established for your first session with stem cells (usually in less than two weeks’ time since first consultation).

3. PROCEDURE

• The procedure is carried out in sessions. The amount of sessions will depend on the case (we recommend more than three sessions).

• Each session has a duration of approximately 8 hours at the clinic (including rest time).

• Sessions take place every two months.

SESSIONS

A session is the determined time in which the patient receives medical treatment for the improvement of his health. Each session is divided into two parts: the procedure (which is performed at the clinic) and the stage at home (for each step the patient is provided different medications that potentiate the function of the stem cells).

The entire process lasts for two months. Once the patient completes these steps, he returns to the clinic for a second session. The process may change depending on the progress the patient has had.

MEDICATIONS

The patient arrives at the office the day of his appointment at 8:00 am. He can have a light breakfast (zero fat). Immediately after the explanation of the procedure, he is transferred to the operating room. At the request of the patient, an anxiolytic or selective mild sedation can be administered orally (without pulmonary or cardiac implications) prior to initiating.

PROCEDURE

• Stem cells

• Platelet-enriched plasma

• Regeneration factors (interleukins and growth factors)

Each regeneration therapy has a different mechanism of action, however, they correlate each other, that is, the effect of using more than one therapy simultaneously increases the results compared to each stem cell treatment used separately.

1. SAMPLING

Sampling consists of aspiration of bone marrow from the selected bone (posterior iliac crest, tibia, sacrum) in order to obtain the desired derivatives (stem cells, plasma) in the operating room.

​After cleansing (sterilization) of the area, local anesthesia is administered with Klein’s Solution (lidocaine, Saline, Bicarbonate, Adrenaline). Then, aspiration of the marrow with the recommended instruments is performed of approximately 100 – 120 milliliters of sample, which will then be processed.

​Finally the area is cleansed again and the puncture sites are covered with gauze or sterile dressings. The patient is left lying on his back for about 10 minutes to apply pressure if required. The patient is sent to the waiting room while the sample is being processed.

2. SAMPLE PROCESSING

The bone marrow aspirate is centrifuged to obtain the required derivatives, which are then activated. The derivatives are placed in sterile tubes for application. This portion of the procedure takes approximately 2 hours.

​At this time the patient is admitted to a room to rest until the processing of the sample is complete. The patient can eat something very light if he wishes. Our assistant will be following up on the patient.

3. SAMPLE APPLICATION

The patient is returned to the operating room. Having previously received an oral analgesic, the areas where the treatment will be placed are cleansed. Local anesthesia is applied, followed by injections of the processed sample.

4. REST AND FINAL STEPS

The patient is admitted to the room again where he rests (for approximately 2 to 4 hours, time to be determined by the doctor).

​At the end of the resting time, he is taken to the doctor’s office. Medication and at home administration instructions are given to the patient.
