Title: Treating sensorineural hearing loss using PRP(platelet-rich plasma)

Sensorineural hearing loss has been considered permanent, especially in the chronic phase. Usually, people with sensorineural hearing loss try to use hearing aids. When the hearing levels are too low, even hearing aids are not helpful. So we need to find any way to regenerate the inner ear cells to elevate hearing levels. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been widely known for its regenerative potential. However, the fixed idea that damaged human inner ear cells could not regenerate themselves has prevented most researchers from trying to use PRP to help revive the inner ear cells. The author injected PRP, derived from either blood or bone marrow, through the recipient’s eardrum for acute and chronic sensorineural hearing losses, elevating the basal hearing level. The author even invented a device to guide to an appropriate point while injecting the PRP. Regardless of the duration of the illness, the hearing improved.
