Circulation and Oxygenation Changes of Deep Tissue Respond on LLLT

June 21, 2021 updated by: Ting Li

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).

Study Overview

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.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Healthy experimental participants

The 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.

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 ℃.
No Intervention: Healthy controlled participants

The 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 rest, 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.
