About this study

Official title: Acute Effects of Cryotherapy on Muscle Mechanical Properties and Muscle Activation Changes

The main aim of this study is to investigate the acute effects of cryotherapy on muscle mechanical properties, muscle strength, and activation changes in healthy subjects.

Read the detailed description

What changes occur in muscle stiffness following cryotherapy application? How does cryotherapy affect muscle strength? How does cryotherapy impact muscle activation? Are there differences in muscle mechanical properties, muscle strength, and muscle activation between different cryotherapy methods (ice massage and cold spray)? How do the effects of cryotherapy on muscle mechanical properties, muscle strength, and muscle activation change over time?

Being tested
an ice massage, the cold spray
Keywords
cryotherapy, muscles, acute effect, muscle strength, electromyography

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing an ice massage and the cold spray in people with Cryotherapy Effect, run by Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Gamze Aydın, PhD (5377600256 ext. +90, gamze.tosun@okan.edu.tr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

myoton pro device (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Sep 2024.
