Instability of the sacroiliac (SI) ligament and its myofascial attachments can induce pain and dysfunction in the lower back, hip and knee regions. Treatment of the secondary symptomatic areas, as opposed to the SI ligament and myofascial attachments, fails to address the primary root cause of pain and dysfunction in these regions.
This Circle uses a unique physical examination objective measurement, “Millimeters of Motion,” to quantify SI ligamentous laxity prior to and following orthobiologics treatments, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and micro-fragmented adipose tissue (MFAT) injections. The study further captures validated patient-reported outcomes of lower back, hip and overall pain levels over a 12-month period.
Observational, Quality Improvement
- Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
- Revised Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)
- Hip Dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (HOOS, JR)
- Access to education on how to assess for SI ligamentous laxity.
- Access to a retrospective database demonstrating reduction of laxity and patient symptoms following orthobiologics treatment options.
- Turnkey solution for engaging your own everyday patients in self-reported outcomes tracking.
- Benchmarking of results and methods against all other Circle contributors.
- Access to innovative biological products involved within the study.
