Every year for the last five we have brought together our network physicians in Colorado for our Annual Regenexx Network Conference. This is a great way for our doctors to learn the latest and greatest about everything Regenexx as well as trade experience and clinical pearls. This conference begins this morning. So I welcome all of our network physicians and their staff here to Colorado and look forward to a great few days of learning and comradery!

Many Shoulder and Rotator Cuff injuries are good candidates for regenerative treatments. Before considering shoulder arthroscopy or shoulder replacement, consider an evaluation of your condition with a regenerative treatment specialist.
Many spine injuries and degenerative conditions are good candidates for regenerative treatments and there are a number of studies showing promising results in treating a wide range of spine problems. Spine surgery should be a last resort for anyone, due to the cascade of negative effects it can have on the areas surrounding the surgery. And epidural steroid injections are problematic due to their long-term negative impact on bone density.
Knees are the target of many common sports injuries. Sadly, they are also the target of a number of surgeries that research has frequently shown to be ineffective or minimally effective. Knee arthritis can also be a common cause for aging athletes to abandon the sports and activities they love. Regenerative procedures can be used to treat a wide range of knee injuries and conditions. They can even be used to reduce pain and delay knee replacement for more severe arthritis.

Most injuries of the elbow’s tendons and ligaments, as well as arthritis, can be treated non-surgically with regenerative procedures.
Hip injuries and degenerative conditions become more common with age. Do to the nature of the joint, it’s not quite as easy to injure as a knee, but it can take a beating and pain often develops over time. Whether a hip condition is acute or degenerative, regenerative procedures can help reduce pain and may help heal injured tissue, without the complications of invasive surgical hip procedures.

Gloria,
This Conference is for Regenexx Doctors only. You might be interested in the Interventional Orthopedics Physician Hands-On Orthobiologic Courses, however there are reqirements for registration. Please see: https://interventionalorthopedics.org/upcoming-education/, or applying to the Regenexx Network Physician program, please see: http://www.regenexx.com/global-navigation/physician-info/
Hi:
I’m wondering if Regenexx is investigating, or has investigated, or plans to investigate, stem cell function or quality (viability) issues as a possible explanation for the variability in treatment outcomes from person to person. For example, older people may have stem cell senescence. People with autoimmune diseases may have stem cell function problems. I’m wondering what Dr. Centeno has learned about variation from person to person in stem cell function or quality. There are studies that talk about this, but I’m curious how pioneers in this field, like Dr. Centeno, are dealing with and thinking about this issue. In other words, is it possible that most of the variation in treatment results or satisfaction can be explained by the fact that some people (such as those people with auto-immune diseases) have relatively poor stem cell function—their stem cells simply don’t work as well as those of a healthy person? Maybe poor stem cell function is part of the reason some people have osteo-arthritis in the first place??? I’m guessing there is no good, practical way to assess stem cell function, health or viability in the clinical setting, after the cells are extracted from the bone marrow, prior to injection. Thanks
Gary,
With the culture expanded procedures, we were able to look at cell function in terms of how the cells proliferate in culture. We have looked at outcome versus those metrics (i.e. cell doubling time) and did not find an association.
Please give my regards to Dr. James Leiber DO, and his staff. In May 2016, he performed the autologous stem cell therapy for a partially torn supraspinatus rotator cuff tear.
Ten months later I am doing better. Followed up with the PRP injection which hurt more than the meschynmal stem cells.
Interested in any new developments. While not pain free; I am better and not surgically compromised! Dr. Leiber will remember me as I am the only professional ventriloquist he ever treated.
