Selecting the right PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) kit is a crucial decision for any provider aiming to deliver safe, effective, and customized treatments for their patients. With multiple options on the market, including Integrity PRP and EmCyte PRP systems, practitioners have choices that cater to different clinical needs, but each system brings distinct qualities in regulatory compliance, platelet recovery, and customization options.
On the other hand, Integrity PRP kits might be more affordable, which can appeal to practitioners seeking a lower cost. It’s worth noting that most of these kits look similar to options from generic suppliers, such as those available from Chinese platforms like Alibaba.
However, beyond price, it is critical to consider compliance and reliability: we were unable to find any FDA registration for Integrity PRP kits, and it is notable that Integrity does not claim FDA clearance anywhere on their website. Providers using non-cleared kits could be exposing their practice and patients to unnecessary risks.
By contrast, EmCyte’s PRP System holds a Class II medical device status under the FDA’s product code “ORG,” specifically cleared for preparing Platelet-Rich Plasma. This classification ensures it meets rigorous manufacturing and performance standards for patient safety across a wide range of applications, including aesthetic and musculoskeletal treatments.
Choosing EmCyte gives providers confidence that they are offering treatments aligned with FDA guidelines, reducing regulatory risks and prioritizing patient safety.
One of the primary goals in PRP therapy is to achieve optimal platelet recovery and concentration, as these factors directly impact therapeutic outcomes. Studies, such as “A retrospective analysis of a commercially available platelet-rich plasma kit during clinical use,” demonstrate that EmCyte’s system can achieve over 90% platelet recovery — significantly enhancing PRP effectiveness.
In addition, EmCyte offers flexibility between leukocyte-rich and leukocyte-poor PRP, allowing providers to customize treatments based on the patient’s specific indication — whether for aesthetics, orthopedics, or pain management.
Integrity PRP kits, by comparison, offer less evidence of consistent performance or customization capabilities.
EmCyte’s system supports both single-spin and double-spin techniques, allowing clinicians to control PRP concentration levels based on therapeutic goals. This flexibility allows for better outcomes and broader treatment applications compared to generic systems that are often limited to a single, fixed process.
PRP therapy continues to expand rapidly, and regulatory compliance is more critical than ever. EmCyte’s FDA-cleared system ensures that providers use technology validated for safety and efficacy, offering peace of mind for clinics and their patients.
In contrast, choosing a non-cleared system like Integrity PRP can introduce unnecessary regulatory and clinical risks.
Choosing the right PRP system is pivotal for practitioners committed to providing effective, safe, and tailored care. While Integrity PRP kits might offer a lower upfront cost, EmCyte stands out as the better investment — delivering FDA clearance, superior platelet recovery, flexible processing options, and proven patient outcomes.
