Summary

This study tested whether applying a patient's own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to the chest wound during heart surgery reduces infections and improves healing. 98 adults undergoing bypass surgery were randomly assigned to receive PRP or standard wound closure. Results showed that PRP may lower wound complications and hospital costs, but lifelong medication is not involved, so this is classified as disease control.
