Laser Therapy on Tension-type Cephalea and Orofacial Pain in Post-covid-19 Patients
Sponsor: University of Nove de Julho
Summary
Considering the auxiliary potential effect of photobiomodulation in controlling persistent CTT and TMD-related pain in patients who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, and are recovered from the viral infection, we intend to conduct a clinical trial comparing two modalities of therapeutic laser application: local application and transcutaneous application in the radial artery. One of the main advantages of auxiliary techniques in pain control is the decrease of the use of drugs for analgesia, avoiding side effects and tolerance caused by them, and promoting an improvement in the individual's quality of life.
Official title: The Effect of Systemic Versus Local Transcutaneous Laser Therapy on Tension-type Cephalea and Orofacial Pain in Post-covid-19 Patients: a Pragmatic Randomized Clinical Trial.
