“…Prior to starting the temperature measurements, the patients remained in the examination room for 10 min in order to acclimatize to the room temperature (thermalization). For image acquisition and analysis, Fluke Ti400 thermal imaging camera (FLUKE Corp., Washington, USA) and the Fluke View ® software (FLUKE Corp., Washington, USA) were used [17]. Cutaneous temperatures were measurements before treatment (baseline) and immediately after transcranial laser photobiomodulation at two regions of the head [parietal (with hair) and frontal (without hair) regions] during one minute each.…”

“…The patients were instructed to make a mark with a pen at any point on the line between 2 verbal descriptors, one for each symptom extreme ["No pain" (0) and "as bad as it could be" or "worst imaginable pain" (10)]. A ruler was used to measure distance to determine a score [17]. The most symptomatic region in patients was evaluated that is the hemiplegic shoulder.…”

Post‐stroke sequelae includes loss functions, such as cognitive and sensory‐motor which lead to emotional and social problems, reducing quality of life and well‐being. The main aim of our study was to investigate the effects of transcranial laser photobiomodulation together with neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in post‐stroke patients. We performed a clinical trial and an ex vivo study. For the clinical trial, hemiplegic patients were separated into two groups: Treated Group (TG): Hemiplegics treated with transcranial laser (on) associated with NMES (on) and; Placebo Group (PG): Hemiplegics treated with placebo transcranial laser (off) associated with NMES (on). The cluster prototype includes 12 diode laser beams (4 × 660 nm, 4 × 808 nm and 4 × 980 nm) with average power of 720 mW per cluster applied during one minute, leading to 43.2 J energy per cluster. Fifteen regions for all head were irradiated by cluster, leading to 648 J energy per session. The parameters of NMES of the paretic limbs to generate extension wrist and ankle dorsiflexion were symmetrical biphasic rectangular waveforms, 50 Hz frequency, 250 μs pulse duration, and adjustable intensity to maintain the maximum range of motion (amplitude between 0 and 150 mA). Our clinical trial showed improvement of cognitive function, pain relief, greater manual dexterity, enhancement of physical and social–emotional health which lead to better quality of life and well‐being. There was also increased temperature in the treated regions with laser and NMES. For the ex vivo study, the distribution of infrared and red radiation after penetration through the cranium and hemihead of cadavers were showed. Therefore, transcranial laser photobiomodulation associated with NMES can be an important therapeutic resource for rehabilitation after stroke.

“…De Oliveira et al100 (2021) investigaram os efeitos da fotobiomodulação na dor neuropática e na mudança de temperatura superficial em um modelo roedor de dor neuropática. Foi encontrado uma diminuição na temperatura nas regiões avaliadas nos ratos que receberam a terapia fotobiomoduladora sugerindo que as mudanças na temperatura da pele e nos mediadores nociceptivos em condições de dor neuropática podem ser atenuadas por uma terapia não farmacológica, o que difere ao nosso estudo que apresentou, embora não significativa, um aumento no delta de temperatura observado.Já Paolillo et al101 (2021) ao avaliar os efeitos da fotobiomodulação na superfície corporal através de termografia infravermelha em pés de bailarinas clássicas, observaram aumento da temperatura do arco plantar após a aplicação do laser. Os autores relacionaram o aumento da temperatura cutânea ao maior fluxo sanguíneo por ação da fotobiomodulação.…”

“…A partir dessas avaliações, os autores sugeriram que a medição da temperatura da pele por termografia infravermelha pode ser útil em ambientes clínicos para mostrar a evolução temporal das lesões nervosas e facilitar o diagnóstico, além da avaliação do progresso do tratamento através das mudanças na temperatura da pele em condições de dor neuropática que podem ser atenuadas por uma terapia não farmacológica. temperatura cutânea101 . Já Stamborowski e colaborados102 (2021), não observaram aumento de temperatura corporal no grupo tratado com fotobiomodulação, neste estudo, a irradiação não provocou variação brusca de temperatura em relação aos grupos (controle e placebo).…”

This study aimed to evaluate photobiomodulation (PBM) adjunct effect on pain, swelling, and face temperature in individuals with oral cleft submitted to alveolar ridge bone grafting (ABG). The sample consisted of 46 patients with either incomplete or complete unilateral cleft lip and palate aged from 9 to 18 years, both sexes, who underwent ABG with chin donor area. Subjects were randomly divided into 3 groups: (1) Control (C): ABG (n=17); (2) PBM: ABG with PBM (n=14); (3) Simulated photobiomodulation (SPBM): ABG with SPBM (n=15). Aluminum Gallium Arsenide (GaAlAs) infrared laser was used at 808±10 nm and power of 100 mW±20%. GaAlAs infrared laser was applied on 14 points in the subject’s face at 4J per point, at 2 times: Immediate postoperative period and 24 hours postoperative. The authors evaluated pain, swelling, and face temperature at 24 hours postoperative; at 7-day postoperative, the authors evaluated pain, medication use, and swelling decreasing perception. No statistically significant difference occurred between groups C, PBM, and SPBM. At 24 hours postoperative, pain values showed statistically significant difference (P=0.04) between group C and SPBM. PBM at the tested parameters did not reduce pain and swelling and did not significantly change face temperature of individuals submitted to ARBG.
