The Recover Kit produces autologous platelet-rich plasma to treat chronic tendon elbow. The study was a multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical trial and will be completed when each of the enrolled 230 patients reaches a 24-week follow-up in mid-2011.

The trial is being performed under FDA-approved investigational device exemption to evaluate the safety of the device. The study subjects will receive investigational PRP treatment or bupivacaine as the control.
