THE SCIENTIFIC CHALLENGE
Why this matters
Chronic tendinopathies afflict millions of patients worldwide, yet the rapid adoption of platelet-rich plasma
(PRP) treatments still outpaces the evidence base: protocols vary widely, product characterization is inconsistent, and follow-up metrics are rarely harmonized. By capturing and analysing large-scale, real-world data across multiple centres, this project delivers the rigorous, standardised evidence needed to turn today’s heterogeneous practice into globally aligned, data-driven care.

FAQs
Who can participate?
Any clinical center, hospital or private practice with experience in PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatments applied to tendon pathologies (patellar, Achilles, epicondylitis, plantar fasciitis). Both public and private institutions are welcome.
What is the cost to participate?
Participation in the study itself is free of charge. Centers only assume the costs associated with acquiring the technology required to operate:
• The BioSmartData® software license
• A compatible hematology analyzer for PRP characterization.
What technology do I need to participate?
• A valid BioSmartData® Software license (cloud-based, easy installation).
• A hematology analyzer capable of PRP parameter analysis (platelet count, WBC, RBC, volume, etc.), compatible with the BioSmartData® system.
• Internet connection to access the platform securely.
How long is the follow-up period for each patient?
Each patient will be monitored for a minimum of 12 months following their PRP treatment, allowing us to collect both short- and mid-term clinical outcomes.
What type of data is collected?
The platform captures structured clinical data directly from your routine practice, including:
• Patient demographics (fully anonymized)
• Clinical diagnosis and tendinopathy location
• PRP preparation parameters and hematology results
• Treatment protocols used
• Functional outcome measures and clinical scales
• Follow-up assessments at predefined timepoints
Who owns the data?
All data is fully anonymized and managed under strict ethical standards. The study database is a collective scientific repository governed by the international research consortium and scientific committee.
Each participating center maintains access to its own cases, and global aggregated data will be used for joint scientific publications.
How is patient data protected?
Patient privacy and data security are top priorities. The platform ensures:
• Full data anonymization
• AES-256 encryption protocols
• GDPR compliance (Europe)
• ENS High Level Security (Spain)
• Controlled access only for authorized research staff
