    Dr. Aaron Calodney discusses the advantages of integrating regenerative medicine into a traditional pain practice. He breaks down the biochemistry of musculoskeletal injury, presenting the standard treatment options and newer regenerative approaches. Dr. Calodney details PRP (with and without white blood cells), amniotic or cord blood, and concentrated plasma as options for biologics.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1488298613118{margin-top: -20px !important;}”]

    Dr. Aaron Calodney gives an interesting presentation describing the implications of regenerative treatments for discogenic pain and degenerative disc disease. He explains the differences between these disc pathologies as well as their etiologies. This leads into his discussion of how regenerative medicine has shown progress in treating both of these disc pathologies.

    Dr. Aaron Calodney demonstrates the proper technique to access the ideal portion of the iliac crest for obtaining bone marrow aspirate (as a source of mesenchymal stem cells). This includes the correct fluoroscopic imaging, angle of entry for the Jamshidi needle, and the correct use of the syringe for the suction of the aspirate. He then demonstrates how to reproduce this process to gather the needed volume of 60 cc of aspirate.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]

    Dr. Calodney and Dr. Chang Chien have an informative conversation over the use of regenerative medicine. They both agree that the reliance of corticosteroids in pain medicine may not be the best option for long term, chronic pain, as these continuous steroid injections can actually be catabolic to the surrounding tissues. Dr. Chang Chien talks about current research that demonstrates the efficacy of platelet rich plasma over other commonly used injectants for OA. Dr. Calodney discusses the pros and cons for these regenerative options for degenerative disc disease.
