Analgesic Effect of Laser Therapy in Children

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

Pain management after tonsillectomy could be challenging, with different protocols and various outcome depending on individual patient; moreover, odynophagia due to surgery can, in extreme cases, lead to block oral fluid intake, ending in dehydration and thus hospitalization. A small pilot study demonstrated efficacy of photo-biomodulation (PBM) in managing pain after tonsillectomy and it suggests that PBM can be included in clinical practice. The present research aims to confirm and expand the findings from this study, being the first step in including PBM in clinical routine after tonsillectomy. Use of this treatment, which is non-damaging, non-toxic and easy to supply to patients, could greatly improve individual quality of life after a surgical treatment; its use in the clinical practice could represent an advantage for the institute, leading to more patients' satisfaction, due to the lower pain sensation after surgery and quicker recovery time.
