Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Participants had randomly divided into two equal groups. Group (A) which is the study group will receive photobiomodulation session two times per week for four weeks. Group (B) will be the control group that will receive placebo photobiomodulation two times per week for four weeks.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

group (A):

1. Each participant will sign a consent form after receiving a detailed explanation about the procedure.
2. submaximal exercise capacity using time up and go test will be assessed.
3. fatigability will be assessed using fatigue assessment scale.
4. hemodynamic variables including; Blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, maximum oxygen consumption will also be assessed.
5. After one month all the assessment procedure will be repeated again.

r group (B):

1. Each participant will sign a consent form after receiving a detailed explanation about the procedure.
2. submaximal exercise capacity using time up and go test will be assessed.
3. fatigability will be assessed using fatigue assessment scale.
4. hemodynamic variables including; Blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, maximum oxygen consumption will also be assessed.
5. After one month all the assessment procedure will be repeated again.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group A

the participant will received photobiomodulation session.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

photobiomodulation

Intervention Type RADIATION

Photobiomodulation (PBM) describes the use of red or near-infrared light to stimulate, heal, regenerate, and protect tissue that has either been injured, is degenerating, or else is at risk of dying.

Group B

the participant will received placebo photobiomodulation session.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

placebo intervention by photobiomodulation device

Intervention Type OTHER

placebo intervention while the photobiomodulation device is on the off mode
