Effects of Transcutaneous Photobiomodulation on Diabetic Foot Ulcers: A Randomized Clinical Study Monitored by Dark-Field Microscopy and Infrared Thermography

Foot ulcers in people with diabetes mellitus represent one of the most serious chronic complications of the disease, being associated with persistent inflammation, high oxidative stress, microvascular dysfunction and systemic hemorheological changes that compromise the progression of the healing process. Given the pathophysiological complexity of these injuries, therapeutic strategies capable of acting simultaneously on the local wound microenvironment and the systemic biological environment become relevant for optimizing tissue repair. This study aims to evaluate the effects of the association between transcutaneous vascular photobiomodulation (FBMVT) and topical photobiomodulation (FBMT) in people with diabetes and foot ulcers. This is a randomized, controlled and prospective phase II clinical trial, with a sample of 20 participants allocated to experimental groups that will receive a standard dressing with neutral healing matrix (TLC) or a protocol combining FBMVT and FBMT. FBMVT will be performed with a 660 nm laser, 100 mW power, continuous mode and 180 J per application, monthly for 12 weeks, totaling four sessions. FBMT will be performed with a 660 nm laser, 100 mW power, 2 J energy per point, twice a week during dressing changes, totaling approximately 24 sessions throughout follow-up. The primary outcome will be the reduction in the area of the lesion (cm²), measured using a standardized planimetric method. As secondary outcomes, the Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) score will be evaluated, the standardized infrared thermographic assessment of the monthly perilesional region of all participants and the qualitative analysis of peripheral blood by dark field microscopy (MCE) pre and post FBMVT of the intervention group. The data will be analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA, after evaluating the normality of the data, adopting a significance level of 5%. It is expected to observe a reduction in the lesion area, improvement in clinical healing scores, favorable changes in the hemocirculatory dynamics observed in ECM and modulation of thermal patterns related to tissue perfusion, indicating that systemic and local biophotonic modulation can contribute to the optimization of the healing process in foot ulcers in people with diabetes.

Application of transcutaneous PBM therapy to the foot ulcer Photobiomodulation (PBM)-formerly referred to as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or cold laser therapy-is a non-invasive, non-thermal therapeutic modality that employs light in the red to near-infrared spectrum (typically spanning wavelengths from approximately 600 nm to 1,100 nm) to elicit beneficial biological responses in target tissues.

주요 결과 측정

결과 측정
측정값 설명
기간
Size of wound area
기간: At the basal assessment (baseline), immediately before the PBM therapy, and 12 weeks of treatment

Wound area (cm²). To obtain the wound area, a standardized two-dimensional measurement technique will be used, considering the greatest length (longitudinal axis) and the greatest width perpendicular to the length (transverse axis), with area estimated using the formula:

Area (cm²) = length × width

This method is widely accepted in clinical practice and clinical studies, especially when combined with evaluator standardization and systematic photographic documentation, and is recommended by international guidelines for longitudinal wound monitoring (IWGDF, 2023; EWMA, 2022).

The presence of pain in the cutaneous reference region of the triceps surae will be assessed using a Numerical Pain Scale (NPS) / The NPS is an aid in measuring the intensity of pain felt by the patient, an important instrument to verify progress and analyze the treatment instituted. The participant should be asked about their level of pain, where 0 means total absence of pain and 10 the maximum pain level.
