Autonomic nervous activity during hand immersion in cold water in patients with vibration-induced white finger.
Autonomic nervous function in response to cold was investigated in 21 patients with vibration-induced white finger (VWF) and 17 healthy controls of similar age, using power spectral analysis of heart rate variability. In a supine position, electrocardiogram and skin temperature of both index fingers were measured during immersion of right hand in cold water at 10 degrees C for 10 minutes. Auton...
متن کاملIce-water (cold stress) immersion testing.
Trauma-induced cold intolerance (cold sensitivity) is characterised by pain, stiffness, altered sensibility, or colour change associated with cold exposure (Campbell and Kay 1998), and is common after nerve injury or surgery (Irwin et al 1997). The Immersion in Cold water Evaluation (ICE) is a cold stress test administered through a standardised protocol where the hand is immersed in cold water...
متن کاملIce-Water Immersion and Cold-Water Immersion Provide Similar Cooling Rates in Runners With Exercise-Induced Hyperthermia.
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether ice-water immersion or cold-water immersion is the more effective treatment for rapidly cooling hyperthermic runners. DESIGN AND SETTING: 17 heat-acclimated highly trained distance runners (age = 28 +/- 2 years, height = 180 +/- 2 cm, weight = 68.5 +/- 2.1 kg, body fat = 11.2 +/- 1.3%, training volume = 89 +/- 10 km/wk) completed a hilly trail run (approximately 19 ...
متن کاملA revised cold water immersion test for assessing peripheral circulatory function.
To improve the conventional cold water immersion test for assessing peripheral circulatory function, the immersed area of the hand was changed in this study. Twenty-seven healthy medical students with a mean age of 24 years participated in the study. The cold water immersion tests were carried out using two methods (in 5 degree C water for 1 min), in which the immersed area was up to the metaca...
متن کاملCold water immersion: the gold standard for exertional heatstroke treatment.
The key to maximize the chances of surviving exertional heatstroke is rapidly decreasing the elevated core body temperature. Many methods exist to cool the body, but current evidence strongly supports the use of cold water. Preferably, the athlete should be immersed in cold water. If lack of equipment or staff prevents immersion, a continual dousing with cold water provides an effective cooling...
