11577094 · 2023-02-14 · ·

Systems and methods for treating sexual dysfunction using transcranial photobiomodulation (t-PBM) with near infrared light (NIR) are provided. In particular, a device configured for treating a disorder of a subject, the device can have a power source and a light source configured to receive power from the power source to cause the light source to emit near infrared light, wherein the near-infrared light has a wavelength of 600 nm to 1400 nm. The device has a processor and a housing configured to position the light source to deliver the near infrared light to a region of interest of the subject via transcranial photobiomodulation in a dosimetry and duration sufficient to treat the disorder.

Lighting system for protecting circadian neuroendocrine function

Lighting systems, methods, and devices for protecting human circadian neuroendocrine function during night use are described. Suitable lighting conditions can be provided for a working environment while protecting the circadian neuroendocrine systems of those occupying the illuminated workplace during the night. Lighting systems, methods, and devices can provide substantive attenuation of the pathologic circadian disruption in night workers. Lighting systems, methods, and devices can attenuate the specific bands of light implicated in circadian disruption. LED lighting systems, methods, and devices can provide increased intensity at a different portion of the spectrum than conventional LEDs, providing a useable white light even when unfavorable portions of the wavelength are attenuated by a notch filter. LED lighting systems, methods, and devices can switch between a daytime configuration and a night time configuration, wherein the daytime configuration provides unfiltered light and the night time configuration provides filtered light.
