Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy
Active Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy device; exposed once weekly for 10 minutes.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy
Participants of this arm will be exposed to 10 minutes of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) once a week for a total of 16 weeks.
The PEMF device produces pulsed magnetic fields at flux densities up to 1 mT peak.
Sham Therapy
Inactive Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy device; exposed once weekly for 10 minutes.
Sham Therapy
Participants of this arm will be exposed to 10 minutes of sham therapy once a week for a total of 16 weeks.
The Sham device is identical to the PEMF device in physical appearance.
