The objective of this study is to assess peripheral microcirculatory hemodynamic responses to photobiomodulation in participants with normal circulation and with functional peripheral vasoconstriction, using noninvasive thermography, photoplethysmography, and laser Doppler flowmetry.
This is a within-subject experimental study in which each participant completes two study sessions. Microvascular and systemic variables are continuously monitored in response to photobiomodulation delivered at either a blue or near-infrared wavelength, with each wavelength applied in a separate session.
Each session includes a baseline period with controlled breathing, followed by photobiomodulation and a 20-minute post-intervention follow-up period. Peripheral microcirculatory responses are assessed using noninvasive thermography, photoplethysmography, and laser Doppler flowmetry.

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Photobiomodulation - Blue Wavelength | Device | Photobiomodulation delivered at a blue wavelength (400-500 nm) to the hands during a single study session as part of a randomized crossover design. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Capillary blood flow | Capillary blood flow, expressed as red blood cell flux (perfusion units), measured continuously using laser Doppler flowmetry (≥10 Hz sampling rate) from baseline through the end of each study session. | Up to 1 hour |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Temperature distribution over hands measured by thermography | Thermal images will be acquired using a FLIR infrared camera, and spatial temperature distribution over the hands will be analyzed. Images will be acquired at one-minute intervals from baseline through the end of each study session. | Up to 1 hour |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Photoplethysmography (PPG)-derived perfusion response | Continuous photoplethysmography (PPG) will be recorded from the hand, and PPG-derived perfusion metrics (e.g., pulse amplitude and related indices) will be quantified to assess changes in peripheral microcirculation following photobiomodulation. | Up to 1 hour |

This is a within-subject crossover study in which participants receive photobiomodulation at blue and near-infrared wavelengths in separate sessions, with the order of exposure assigned in a crossover manner. Participants may present with functional peripheral vasoconstriction or normal peripheral temperature at baseline; these baseline characteristics will be used for subgroup analyses and do not define separate study arms.
