Brief Summary

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

This study will be conducted to demonstrate any effect of high intensity focused ultrasound on sleep quality measures in obese doubled chin women.

Detailed Description

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

PURPOSE:

This study will be conducted to demonstrate any effect of high intensity focused ultrasound on sleep quality measures in obese doubled chin women.

BACKGROUND:

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy is becoming more familiar in medical field because it is non-invasive technique with fewer side effects and provides promising therapeutic results. Several HIFU therapy applications have approved by many approval authorities of deferent countries since last decade.

HIFU cauterizes tissue from outside the body by focusing ultrasonic waves from a transducer with many ultrasonic sources on a single point, known as the target tumor .This modality is groundbreaking because it only causes coagulative necrosis via thermal and non-thermal energy (mainly cavitation) to the focal area, with hardly any impact on the intervening tissue outside the focal area.

Central obesity is significant predictor of metabolic syndrome and is associated with an increased risk of many medical conditions, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD), stroke , type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension , various types of cancer (e.g. colorectum, pancreas, endometrium, and breast) and all-cause mortality

Hypotheses of the study(Null) There is no significant effect of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound on sleep quality measures in obese doubled chin women.

Statement of the problem:

Is there any effect of high intensity focused ultrasound on sleep quality measures in obese doubled chin women?

Study Groups

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

HIFU plus exercises

1. A physician or technician first cleans the target area.
2. They may apply a topical anesthetic cream before starting.
3. The physician or technician then applies an ultrasound gel.
4. The HIFU device is placed against the skin.
5. Using an ultrasound viewer, the physician or technician adjusts the device to the right setting.
6. Ultrasound energy is then delivered to the target area in short pulses for roughly 30 to 90 minutes.
7. The device is removed.
