RESUMO

The wound topical treatment stimulates an effective, fast and safe wound healing. The platelet rich plasma (PRP) – a concentrated of platelets obtained from centrifugation or single apheresis, has been used as the treatment of wounds because it contains platelet derived growth factor. Being a new therapy, the aim of this study is to show some evidence about the effectiveness of PRP on the healing of chronic wound leg. To this test, a systematic review was conducted, as the recommendation of the Cochrane Library. The studies were screened until 2006 using some key words: platelet rich plasma, platelet derived growth factor, platelet gel, platelet releasate, platelet lysate, CT-102 activated supernatant, wound healing, chronic wound, foot ulcer, diabetic foot, and varicose ulcer; with different combinations, according to data base (Cochrane, PubMed, Lilacs, Embase e Cinahal). From 56 studies, 18 were clinical trials, specially found in PubMed (17 / 94,5%), originated in USA (12 / 66,6%) and published in English. Seven (39%) were clinical trials randomized , classified as a strong recommendation (A) with high evidence level. The meta-analysis of these randomized trials, shows the PRP promotion in wound healing (CI 95% 1,84-7,41), mainly in diabetic ulcer (CI 95% 2,70-41,40). To sum up, this study provides a scientific evidence on repair of chronic wound leg, mainly diabetic ulcer, using PRP
