Skin Wetting in Burn Survivors Study
This study is looking at how whole body skin wetting can help burn survivors stay cool during exercise. Researchers want to see if spraying water on the body can prevent internal body temperatures from getting too high during physical activity. The study will compare whole body cooling (spraying water) with no cooling during exercise in heated conditions. They will measure your core temperature to see how well the cooling works. This study is for healthy individuals aged 18 to 65 years old who have not had burn injuries requiring hospitalization. The study plans to enroll 40 participants, but its current status is unclear.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study with a randomized crossover design, meaning participants will experience both cooling and non-cooling conditions. It plans to enroll 40 participants.
- What's involved
- You would exercise for 60 minutes in a heated environment, sometimes with water sprayed on your body and sometimes without. Your core temperature will be measured before and throughout the exercise session, for an average of 90 minutes.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Core temperature will be measured prior to and throughout the exercise bout, for an average of 90 minutes.

What this trial measures
- Core TemperaturePrior to and throughout the bout of exercise; an average of 90 minutes.
During exercise, one's core body temperature will increase. This device will measure this increase in core body temperature throughout the exercise.
