Clinical Trial Summary

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) uses light to influence the mitochondria of cells. PBMT of the brain enhances the metabolic capacity of neurons and stimulates anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and antioxidant responses, as well as neurogenesis and synaptogenesis. Its therapeutic role in disorders such as dementia and Parkinson's disease, as well as to treat stroke, brain trauma, and depression has gained increasing interest. BioFlex is a form of PBMT consisting of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes. BioFlex utilizes red and near infrared light which penetrates tissues up to a certain tissue depth and studies have shown stimulates tissue growth and repair at the cellular level. PBMT has been proven useful for the treatment of soft tissue pain. Several studies have shown benefit in using PBMT in the treatment of certain neurological conditions, including chronic, mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The purpose of this exploratory investigation, therefore, is to examine efficacy of BioFlex laser therapy on measures of brain function in patients suffering from PCS after mild-moderate, closed-head, traumatic brain injury cases.
