Study: NCT05136482

Intervention type: DEVICE
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Cryocompression
Description: A cryocompression device will be attached to the lower limb of participants using a cuff spanning from the mid-thigh to mid-calf. The device will exert a constant pressure of 25 mmHg throughout each test session. The device will pump temperature-controlled cold water through the cuff in order to reduce the skin temperature around the knee (and intra-articular temperature). Depending on the condition, the temperature of the water being pumped through the device will be either 6, 8, 10, or 12℃. Each test session will last for 30 minutes. Participants will take part in all conditions, with at least 24 hours rest in between test sessions. Skin temperature around the knee will be measured prior to the cryocompression device being applied; every 5 minutes during the 30 minute test; and every 5 minutes after the test until skin temperature \>15℃.
