Stem cell treatment for degenerative disc disease reviews

#STEM CELL TREATMENT FOR DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE REVIEWS HOW TO#

Both Type I and Type II diabetes have devastating effects on the health of millions, and stem cells may help to ameliorate those conditions. Many people are very interested in the possibility of stem cells to treat diabetes. The goal is to deliver large numbers of stem cells to the injured area. These samples are then processed in a laboratory and the stem cells it contains are injected into the area needing repair. who are seeking innovative, non-surgical treatments for osteoarthritis, as well as a wide range of other orthopedic applications.Īs the visionary behind the revolutionary Regenexx® technology, he pioneered a procedure that involves extracting a small bone marrow sample through a needle and a blood draw from a vein in your arm. His Regenexx clinic in Denver, Colorado, draws patients from all over the U.S. Centeno is an expert in the clinical use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) within orthopedic applications. company specializing in orthopedic applications of stem cells that was founded by Dr. Once it’s prepared, doctors inject it into the affected site, such as a knee joint.

#STEM CELL TREATMENT FOR DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE REVIEWS HOW TO#

Physicians extract these cells from fat tissue, separate out the stem cells from the rest, then prepare a solution containing growth factors and other ingredients necessary to tell stem cells how to develop in the new site. Stem cell procedure is offered in many clinics within and outside the United States and typically uses adipose cells as the stem cell source. As studies continue, the methods, forms and combinations of stem cell preparations are improving, and outcomes are expected to improve as well. More well-designed and randomised controlled trials are needed to evaluate the best approach and universal consensus. However, there are several approaches and cell lines used. Several other comparative studies have demonstrated good evidence in the treatment of osteoarthritis.

New Advance in Back Pain Treatment: Stem Cell Therapy

New Post has been published on https://backtherapyhealth.com/new-advance-in-back-pain-treatment-stem-cell-therapy/

New Advance in Back Pain Treatment: Stem Cell Therapy

If you have chronic back pain, it is important to be aware of all your treatment options before considering surgery. A new technique to heal structures of the back uses a component of the patient’s body: stem cells.

Stem cells are the blank slate of cells: They can become other cells in the body. The cells used to treat back pain and other chronic pain conditions are called mesenchymal, and they can become bone, cartilage or fat cells depending on the environment they are put in. Adult cells are used, which differ from embryonic cells that can become any other type of cell. Taking the cells from an adult eliminates the controversy surrounding embryonic stem cell research from this form of treatment.

Stem cells may be able to treat a range of conditions due to their versatility, including degenerative disc disease, vertebral fracture, ligament damage and facet joint syndrome. Research is underway to determine the efficacy of this new therapy in treating various types of back pain causes.

The Procedure

Mesenchymal cells are taken from bone marrow, usually from the patient’s hip. This may be painful depending on the technique used. The company Regenexx uses a small needle to take a sample from the hip marrow and claims that this is a relatively painless procedure. After the cells have been isolated from the marrow, they are generally combined with platelets from your blood which contain growth factors. To make the procedure a fast one, many practitioners combine the cell and platelet mixture with platelet-rich plasma or another substance to encourage the speedy reproduction of stem cells. The cells and their growth factors are then injected into the area of the body that needs repair. If injected in a joint, cartilage will form; if in a disc, new disc material will grow; if in bone, new bone will form.

Stem cells have also been used to perform spinal fusion surgery, in which case a damaged disc is removed and the cell mixture is placed between two vertebrae to grow into bone and fuse them. Unlike the injection procedure, this is an invasive surgical procedure. Trials are underway to test stem cells’ ability to regrow damaged discs.

Currently, this therapy is new and not the most accessible treatment. It is only offered to those participating in clinical trials or by a couple of companies, such as Regenexx. An exact cost of stem cell therapy is not available and likely depends on your location, condition and the procedure selected to treat it. Non-surgical techniques such as the injection of cells is likely much cheaper than common surgeries like spinal fusion.

It will probably be a couple of years before stem cell therapy is widely available to those with back pain. It is best to undergo available conservative treatments like physical therapy and decompression treatments first. In the coming years, we may see the procedure become commonplace for those looking to avoid surgery.

New advances in back pain treatment offer hope to those who feel they’ve tried everything. There are many options for ending your pain, and stem cell therapy may be one of them.

Role of Zinc - How it Helps Us to Maintain Good Health

Welcome to the "Regenexx". Throughout this video, you will learn about the role of zinc, and how it helps us to maintain good health.

Zinc is involved in many physiological processes within our body. It's found in every cell throughout our body, and we know that it's involved in the body's defense mechanisms namely the immune system. So proper levels of zinc, helps us maintain a healthy immune system.

Zinc

Why it's important (physiology) Zinc is found in cells throughout the body. It is needed for the body's defensive (immune) system to properly work. It plays a role in cell division, cell growth, wound healing, and the breakdown of carbohydrates. Zinc is also needed for the senses of smell and taste. During pregnancy, infancy, and childhood the body needs zinc to grow and develop properly. Zinc also enhances the action of insulin.

Best food sources Animal protein, shellfish, nuts, legumes, and whole grains

Side effects of too little Frequent infections Poor appetite Poor smell and taste Skin sores, slow wound healing Hypogonadism in males

Side effects of too much Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea Copper and/or iron deficiency

Typical doses RDA and other RDA- male 11mg/day, female 8-11 mg/day

Some research has shown: • When taken for at least 5 months, zinc may reduce your risk of becoming sick with the common cold. • Starting to take zinc supplements within 24 hours after cold symptoms begin may reduce how long the symptoms last and make the symptoms less severe. However, supplementation beyond the RDA is not recommended at this time. Anecdotally with patients, improved libido and erection and increase sperm count

My Experience as a Regenexx Patient

Image from AAOS

Many times, we as physicians are asked if we have undergone a treatment that we are recommending. Well, I can now say that I have.

A few months ago, I received stem cell injections from my own bone marrow concentrate into my shoulder and hip joints. I swam and played water polo in high school which was so much fun but took a toll on my body. I ended up with labral tears in both areas. The labrum is a ring of connective tissue that helps stabilize a joint. Despite a lot of physical therapy, the tears caused significant instability and frequent subluxations (partial dislocations). I included a picture of what a labral tear looks like on a shoulder MRI in the image above.

Although it’s generally a good idea to avoid elective orthopedic surgeries if possible, the level of instability was impacting my quality of life. So, I chose to proceed with arthroscopic surgical repairs of both, approximately one year apart. Both surgeries went well and improved the stability of those joints. However, I did develop some aches and pains that weren’t there before. I decided to be proactive and have these areas treated with bone marrow concentrate in hopes of preserving the joints and cartilage as much as I can. Therefore, I asked a good friend and colleague of mine (Dr. Chaz Fausel) who I trust to perform a bone marrow concentrate stem cell injection using the flexible lab platform available at Regenexx.

The Procedure:

Bone marrow was extracted from my bilateral iliac crests using ultrasound guidance. Don’t worry, I was plenty numb and it wasn’t bad at all.

Our lab then processed this bone marrow aspirate to isolate the stem cell rich portion. Fortunately, I had over 1 billion total nucleated cells which is more than enough to treat two joints.

Re-injection: Using a combination of ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance, the bone marrow concentrate was then precisely re-injected into not only joint spaces but also into surrounding ligaments and tendons that play a large role in stability.

I woke up the next morning (Saturday) pretty darn sore, but this was expected. Fortunately, that only lasted a few days and by Monday, I was back to work, albeit moving a little gingerly. Later that week I was able to get back to the gym for basic exercises, making sure to modify appropriately so as not to aggravate those areas that were treated. Slowly but surely, I was back to full activity in a few weeks, doing what I love: hiking, swimming, and playing basketball.

It has been over two months since I was treated. Fortunately, things are going really well already. I have less pain at rest as well as with activity. This is comforting because optimal results are usually seen 4-6 months afterwards, so hopefully the best is still yet to come.

Take home message:

I have had my share of orthopedic injuries, some of which I elected to have treated surgically. I decided to be proactive and optimize these areas with my own stem cells from bone marrow concentrate. By doing this, my intent is to prevent the need for future surgeries or even joint replacements. I can now say that I’ve undergone the same procedures I perform on my patients and have a lot more understanding of what they are going through.

Most of my patients look at surgery like getting things stuck in their car. A part goes out, so you replace it or "fix it" with a new one.
