Abstract

Aim of this case report is to assess the Role of Autologous Platelet Rich Plasmain management of pressure sores. Clinical examination of the pressure sores before and after use of autologous platelet rich plasma (APRP) was done. Autologous platelet rich plasma (APRP) is effective in healing of pressure sores.
