Objective: To test the hypothesis that the 405 nm light emitting diode in the treatment of vulvovaginal atrophy is safe and effective, by reducing the symptomatology of the disease and histological alteration of the tissue. Methods: This is a pilot study in 10 volunteers with SGM, followed by a randomized, blinded trial in a sample of 58 individuals that will be performed at the Pelvic Floor Care Center (CAAP). Menopausal women up to 65 years of age and with clinical signs and symptoms of vulvovaginal atrophy syndrome (vaginal dryness and irritation, pruritus, pain or discomfort in intercourse, bleeding after sexual intercourse) and who voluntarily participate in the study will be included. Will be excluded from the study the patients in hormonal replacement for less than 6 months, diagnosis of vaginal infection, use of pacemaker, pregnant women, those who have performed Oophorectomy or presented ovarian cancer, difficulty understanding the proposed instruments and patients with chronic neurological degenerative diseases. Three 405 nm light emitting diode (LED) sessions will be performed, with a seven days interval between them. In the clinical trial, the study group will perform kinesiotherapy and LED.\n\nThe control group will perform kinesiotherapy and the LED will be turned off. Data collection will be performed initially and after the sessions through self-administered questionnaires containing socio-demographic and clinical information, Medical Outcomes Study 36, Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) - Female Version (QS-F), Female Genital Self-Image Scale - 7 (FGSIS-7). At the end of treatment, the visual analog scale and Likert scale will be used to measure the individual's satisfaction. Expected results: The 405nm LED in the vaginal canal is expected to be safe and effective for SGM."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* menopausal women up to 65 years of age\n* presence of clinical signs and symptoms of Menopause Genitourinary Syndrome :dryness and irritation of the vagina, pruritus, pain or discomfort in sexual intercourse, bleeding after sexual intercourse\n* voluntarily participate in the research.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* patients undergoing hormone replacement for less than 6 months\n* diagnosis of vaginal infection\n* difficulty in understanding the proposed instruments\n* patients with chronic neurological degenerative diseases.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04902794', 'briefTitle': 'Light Emitting Diode in the Treatment of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Centro de Atenção ao Assoalho Pélvico'}, 'officialTitle': 'Light Emitting Diode in the Treatment of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause: Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'U1111-1201-2342'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Light Emitting Diode', 'description': 'Light Emitting Diode in the Treatment of Menopause Genitourinary Syndrome', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Light Emitting Diode']}, {'type': 'SHAM_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Light Emitting Diode Sham', 'description': 'Light Emitting Diode device Sham - turned off', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Sham Light Emitting Diode']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Light Emitting Diode', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'Blue light-emitting diode applied to the female genital region for eight minutes, for five sessions, one per week', 'armGroupLabels': ['Light Emitting Diode']}, {'name': 'Sham Light Emitting Diode', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'Sham Blue light-emitting diode turned off applied to the female genital region for eight minutes, for five sessions, one per week', 'armGroupLabels': ['Light Emitting Diode Sham']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '41825-000', 'city': 'Salvador', 'state': 'Estado de Bahia', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Brazil', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Patrícia Lordelo', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'topfisio.topfisio@hotmail.com', 'phone': '+55(71)9 9659-2400'}], 'facility': 'Instituto Patrícia Lordelo', 'geoPoint': {'lat': -12.97563, 'lon': -38.49096}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Patrícia Lôrdelo', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'pvslordelo@hotmail.com', 'phone': '557188592400/3330- 1640'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Patricia Lordelo', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'University of Messina', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Principal Investigator', 'investigatorFullName': 'Patricia Lordelo', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Centro de Atenção ao Assoalho Pélvico'}}}}
