LASER Effects Blood Flow

This study investigate the potential impact of low power laser (LPL), an non-invasive physical therapy, on the cardiovascular system by focusing on its effect on heart rate and autonomic tone.

Study will recruit healthy volunteers and non-invasively monitor their electrocardiogram and digital pulse in response to LPL.

In addition, the potential involvement of autonomic tone will be clarify by topically applying gel (2% lidocaine gel)

About this study

This study investigate the potential impact of low power laser (LPL), an non-invasive physical therapy, on the cardiovascular system by focusing on its effect on heart rate and autonomic tone.

Study will recruit healthy volunteers (age 20-60; having no diabetes, hypertension, or other medical problem) and non-invasively monitor their electrocardiogram and digital pulse in response to LPL (with an intensity for relieving pain).

In addition, the potential involvement of autonomic tone will be clarify by topically applying gel (2% lidocaine gel) at the site 2 cm distal to the applying site.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

Treatment and study plan

physical therapy (low power LASER)

Other

Low power laser with an intensity for pain relieving will be applied to volunteers

Primary outcomes

  1. heart rate

    Time frame: Continuous heart rate (HR) recording will start when it is stable after a brief resting (10 min); maintained during stimulation (30 min), and lasted for a period until the HR recovers.
