About this study

Official title: Circulation and Oxygenation Changes of Deep Tissue Respond on Low Level Light/Laser Therapy (LLLT) in the Healthy Population

This study aims to investigate the circulation and oxygenation changes of deep tissue respond on low level light/laser therapy (LLLT) in the healthy population. The investigators used a self-made near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instrument to noninvasively monitor hemodynamic indicators of brain and forearm muscle groups, including total hemoglobin ([tHb]), and blood flow (BF) and oxygen consumption (VO2).

Read the detailed description

Low level light/laser therapy (LLLT) employs visible or near-infrared light generated from a laser or light emitting diode (LED) system. It has beneficial effects on a wide range of disease, including improving wound healing, reducing pain, improving memory, treat cancer, and many other human applications. This study aims to investigate the circulation and oxygenation changes of deep tissue respond on low level light/laser therapy (LLLT) in the healthy population. The investigators used a self-made near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instrument to noninvasively monitor hemodynamic indicators of brain and forearm muscle groups, including total hemoglobin ([tHb]), and blood flow (BF) and oxygen consumption (VO2). Then the investigators concluded the effect of LLLT, according to compare the difference between the experimental group and control group.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Low-Level Laser TherapyProcedure or surgery

    Use 810-nm-photosource to irradiate the participants' brain and forearm for 10 minutes with a water-cooling radiator to keep it at 25 ± 0.5 ℃.

Study groups in NCT04936165
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Healthy experimental participantsExperimentalThe participants sat in a a quiet and darkened room with the upper arm at heart level and the forearm in an upward angle of 30°, 15-20 min prior to the experiment. The experiments consists of 5-min rest, 90s inflated wrist cuff (240 mmHg) with 30s VO(one minute later), 3-min rest, 10-min intervention, the same 4.5-min process of the wrist cuff, VO and rest. Device: Optical monitor for hemodynamic parameter. Near infrared spectroscopy probes of tow wavelengths were attached on the participants' forearm and brain to detect the changes of hemodynamic parameters.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Δ[HbO2]

    changes of oxyhemoglobin concentration

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Δ[Hb]

    changes of deoxy-hemoglobin concentration

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Δ[tHb]

    changes of total hemoglobin concentration

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subcutaneous fat thickness

    the subcutaneous fat thickness of the forearm

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Low-Level Laser Therapy in people with Low Level Light/Laser Therapy and Near Infrared Spectroscopy, run by Ting Li at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Δ[HbO2] (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jun 2021.
