1 Physical Agents in Rehabilitation: Ultrasound and Phototherapy Jon DeBord, PT, MS, ATC, SCS Rehab Summit 2008 Infra-Red Phototherapy and Low Level Laser Jon DeBord, PT, MS, ATC, SCS Rehab Summit 2008 Red/Infra-Red Phototherapy 30 years of research Cell tissue response to certain frequency of low power light Used for about 20 years Visible red light depth of 8-10 mm Wounds, cuts, scars, trigger and acupuncture points, specifically infections Infrared light depth of mm Bones, joints, and deep muscles Non- Coherent Light Source RevitaMed, Anodyne, others.
2 Phototherapy Benefits Release of nitric oxide from hemoglobin facilitates healing process Increased vascularity creates new capillaries Stimulate production of collagen Stimulate release of ATP energy to cells Increased lymphatic system activity edema evacuated by blood & lymph Phototherapy Benefits Decreased excitability of nervous tissue Stimulate fibroblastic activity repair process Increased phagocytosis important with infection fighting Induce thermal-like effect Stimulate tissue granulation & CT projections Stimulate acetylcholine release Phototherapy Side effects Research has shown no side effects Do caution patients taking photosensitive meds (tetracycline) Possibility of increased pain for short period treating chronic conditions Theory healing crisis or normal process of recovery
3 Clinic units Portable units Various pads Velcro straps Cost $900-$1400 Patients can purchase for maintenance RevitaMed Indications For treatment of: Myofascial pain, fibromyalgia, joint pain, bruising, fractures, muscle problems, edemas, wounds Antibacterial effect Induces production of collagen Increases tensile strength and elasticity in scar tissue Contraindications Pregnancy Active Cancer No research, just fear of using with these patients
4 Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Restoration of protective sensation Improve gait/balance Potential to improve ambulation and decrease falls Reduction in pain, pain meds Improved wound healing in chronic nonhealing wounds Red/Infra-Red Devices Protocols Varies with each patient Gait training Balance and Proprioception ROM and Flexibility Strengthening and Endurance Typically, 3x/wk x 4-8 weeks Claims treatments for effects
5 Low Level Laser Therapy Low Level Laser Therapy Coherent Light Primary Effects Similar to effects of IR Therapy Secondary Effects Cell proliferation, protein synthesis, growth factor secretion, neurotransmitter modification Tertiary Effects System effects Increase immune response, stimulate bone healing Conditions Commonly Treated with Low Level Laser Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Soft Tissue Injuries Arthritis Tendonitis Edema Nerve Injury Sprains/Strains Wounds Burns
6 Low Level Laser Therapy Contraindications Absolute Pregnancy Malignancy Avoid the Thyroid Gland Avoid the Epiphysis Photosensitive patients Immune-suppressed patients Relative Botox Injections Anti-Inflammatory meds Steroid Injection Other considerations Some machines use magnetic energy as well no pacemakers Low Level Laser Therapy Indication Open Wound Wound Periphery Superficial Pain Deep Lying Pain Dose in J/cm to.02 J/cm to 1.0 J/cm 2 1 to 2 J/cm 2 2 to 5 J/cm 2 Low Level Laser Therapy Diagnosis Pain, neuralgia General Stimulation Edema, swelling Inflammation Infection Frequency Range Hz 700 Hz 1000 Hz 5000 Hz 10,000 Hz
7 Low Level Laser Therapy TerraQuant Protocols Program One Two Three Four Five Treatment Pain Syndrome Chronic Pain Syndrome Skin and Wound Care Anti-Aging and Cosmetic Manual Pulse Frequency 50 Hz 5 Hz 1000 Hz 1000 to 3000 Hz 5 to 1000 Hz Time 5 min 5 min 4 min 4 min Variable Low Level Laser Therapy Low Level Laser Therapy General Considerations To Move or Not to Move Movement ok but may increase time necessary to provide the dosage MATH Contact Contact, even overpressure encouraged to gain maximum absorption of light Not indicated for wound application Refraction May be necessary to treat same tissue at multiple angles to achieve desired affects Frequency Acute daily for 2-3 days Early 3x/week for 2 weeks Later 1x/week for 4 weeks
8 Advantages of Each Infra-Red/Red Lasers have limited wavelength capability and beam width Size of the wounds/areas to be treated are vastly different Low Level Laser Deeper penetration of light Focused treatment area More research available (2500+) Shorter treatment times Ultrasound Evidence-Based Practice
9 Literature Review Gürsel et al (Phys Ther 2004) US+Exercise vs. Sham US+Exercise for softtissue disorder of shoulder 40 subjects (mean onset 8.7 months) US at 1MHz 1.5W/cm 2 10 minutes IFC Exercise 5x/week for 3 weeks No statistically significant difference between groups Literature Review Young and Dyson (Ultrasound in Med and Biol 1990) US(0.5W/cm 2 ) causes macrophages to release factors stimulating fibroblast proliferation Mummery (1978) US increased fibroblast mobility Harvey et al (Rheum Rehab 1975) 20% increase in collagen secretion with continuous US at 0.5W/cm 2 30% increase with pulsed US at 0.5W/cm 2 Literature Review Callam et al (Lancet 1987) Chronic Leg Ulcers 1Mhz, 0.5W/cm2, pulsed Performed weekly US vs. control 20% increase in healing rate with US Lundeberg et al (Scan J of Rehabil Med 1990) Similar design to Callam et al (1987) No statistically significant difference Trend suggested US more effective than placebo Sample (n=44) Authors stated that improvement of less than 30% could not be detected
10 Literature Review Webster (1980) Skin wounds US at 0.1 W/cm2, 3x/week for 2 weeks Immediately after injury Elasticity and tensile strength of scar much greater than control Literature Review Dyson (1981) US during Inflammatory Stage Skin Wounds Increased collagen deposition in wound Collagen fibers more closely resemble normal tissue Enwemeka et al (Ultrasound in Med and Biol 1990) US during Inflammatory Stage Tendon Inj. US at 0.5W/cm 2 Increased tensile strength and elasticity Literature Review Pilla et al (J Orthop Trauma 1990) Low intensity US on rabbit legs 1.5 or 3.0 MHz pulsed at 0.3W/cm 2 Maximum bone strength at 17 days with US and 28 days in controls Tsai et al (Chinese J of Physiology 1992) Femoral Fractures Increased healing rate with 1.5MHz at 0.5W/cm 2 Inhibited healing with 1.5MHz at 1.5W/cm 2
