Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Clinical Trial
Official title:
Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT) With Near Infrared Light Emitting Diodes in Patients With Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
The purpose of this research study is to find out if a specialized helmet that provides low levels of near infrared light, also known as low-level light therapy (LLLT) has any effect on the recovery of people who have recently (within 72h) suffered a moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI).
The specific aim of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility of using the LLLT helmet in patients with moderate TBI and to quantify the response to LLLT using magnetic resonance (MR) and clinical outcome measures. We hypothesize that we will be able to quantify the response to LLLT through MR imaging and clinical outcome measures. ;
