Studying Red Light and Blood Flow in Healthy Adults
This study is looking at how 670 nm light (a type of red light) affects blood flow in healthy adults. You would receive 670 nm light on your leg and also an infusion of octafluoropropane, a substance used with ultrasound to measure blood flow. Researchers want to see if this red light can increase blood flow in your leg muscle. The study aims to enroll 40 healthy adults between 18 and 59 years old. The current status of this study is unclear, so it's not known if they are actively recruiting participants.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study planning to enroll 40 healthy participants. All participants will receive the 670 nm light intervention.
- What's involved
- You would have one study visit where you receive red light on your leg and a continuous infusion of octafluoropropane. Blood flow measurements will be taken before, during, and after the light exposure.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Blood flow changes will be measured at 10 minutes, and you will be monitored post-procedure. The study will then be completed.
