Light Therapy in the Treatment of Leg Pain — MilCAM  

Tibial Fractures Clinical Trial

Official title:
Monochromatic Near-Infrared Light Energy (MIRE) in the Treatment of Tibial Stress Reaction

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to apply Anodyne therapy to active duty soldiers, who have shin splints, to evaluate healing time and effectiveness.

Clinical Trial Description

Tibial stress reactions and fractures are often difficult to treat, and therefore, many soldiers proceed to a medical disability/discharge. It is felt that with the use of the MIRE technology, active duty soldiers with tibial stress reactions and fractures will heal more quickly and completely. All soldiers will have a documented bone scintigraph as evidence for tibial stress reaction or fracture prior to enrollment. In addition, pain-pressure goniometric measures and time to complete the Balke protocol will also be used to assess healing with the MIRE technology.

Comparison: Soldiers with Active MIRE technology, compared to soldiers with Placebo MIRE technology. ;

Study Design

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Investigator), Primary Purpose: Treatment
