Amniotic Fluid Injections? 😳💉💉💉

from Dr. Chapa’s OBGYN Clinical Pearls · host Dr. Chapa’s Clinical Pearls

There are, indeed, FDA indicated applications for purified, amniotic membrane (wound healing). Is there also a role for the use of purified amniotic fluid as a “regenerative medicine” treatment option? Can amniotic fluid injections help repair osteoarthritis and aching joints? Can it be used as EYE DROPS for dry eyes? The subject is trendy on certain social media channels and on certain websites. But this concept of injecting amniotic fluid into various body locations has landed one Texas healthcare professional in hot water. Specifically, the US Department of Justice, has pressed charges. 😳 In this episode we will discuss this whole issue of “regenerative medicine” and the legitimate an illegitimate use of amniotic products, AND we also review the inherent qualities of amniotic membranes and fluid which makes them attractive for "regenerative" uses. 💉💉💉
