Skin temperature response to cryotherapy

Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2002
To compare the localized skin-cooling effects of 2 cryotherapy modalities and to review the clinical relevance of the results.Randomized controlled trial with repeated measures.Laboratory experiment.Convenience sample of 20 volunteers (13 women, 7 men), ages 21.3 to 44 years (mean, 31.3 +/- 6.8 y).A flexible frozen gel pack, a 454 g packet of frozen ...

Low Skin Temperatures Produced by New Skin Refrigerants

The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1985
Abstract. Temperatures produced by Cryosthesia – 30°C, Cryosthesia – 60°C, and Frigiderm were measured in mini pigs. Cryosthesia – 60°C and Cryosthesia – 30°C were both found to rapidly lower skin temperatures to levels that have been shown to cause cell injury, necrosis, and loss of melanocytes.

Temperature Discrimination in the Skin

Nature, 1964
THERMORECEPTORS reported in the skin of the cat, rat and dog1–3 had properties similar to the thermoreceptors found in the tongue4. The afferent fibres, however, had low conduction velocities characteristic of non-myelinated axons. The receptors fell into two categories: those excited by a rise and those excited by a fall in cutaneous temperature ...

Skin temperature

2017
Skin surface temperature can be measured using temperature sensors, typically in the form of thermocouples or thermistors. Thermocouples are temperature sensors containing two different metals that, when heated or cooled, produce a change in electrical potential (voltage) associated with the change in temperature. In the present study, skin temperature

Skin temperature and chronic venous insufficiency

Journal of Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nursing, 2003
This study compared lower leg skin temperatures in adults age 50 years and older with and without chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). Norms and ranges of skin temperature were also established.A descriptive comparative design was used.Sixty-six adults recruited from hospital clinics and senior community dwellings participated in the study, which was ...

Reflex control of skin blood flow by skin temperature: role of core temperature

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1979
Two protocols were used to discover whether the reflex response in skin blood flow (SkBF) to rising skin temperature (Tsk) was dependent on the level of internal temperature. Part I. In five subjects, Tsk (controlled with water-perfused suits) was raised to 37 degrees C prior to, between 2 and 5 min, or between 10 and 17 min of exercise.

SUBCUTANEOUS FAT AND SKIN TEMPERATURE

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1954
The subcutaneous fat explains to a large extent the individual differences, as well as the regional variations in the skin temperature, observed on the body. The insulation of the fat layer is 0.41 Clo per inch after one hour's exposure at 70° F., 1.18 at 60° F., and 1.96 at 50° F.

The effects of mental imagery on skin temperature and skin temperature sensation

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, 1985
In a series of six experimental sessions five subjects were instructed to imagine their hand in a hot and cold water stream. During the imagery period the subjects estimated with a psychophysical scale their subjective temperature sensations caused by the imagery. Skin temperature was measured from the thumb of the subjects' dominant hand.

SKIN TEMPERATURES OF CHILDREN

Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, 1931
I. INTRODUCTION In 1620, Sir Francis Bacon wrote: "Let further inquiry be made into the different degrees of heat in different parts and limbs of the same animal. For milk, blood, seed, eggs, are found to be hot only in a moderate degree, and less hot than the outer flesh of the animal when in motion or agitated.
