An interventional study of Chemical Cold Pack in Heat Stroke, Heat Exhaustion, sponsored by Stanford University. Completed at 1 site in United States. Open to male participants aged 18 Years to 75 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2018-11-26.
Sponsored by Stanford University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
A common tool to cool people in the pre-hospital setting is the chemical ice pack. These are used by athletic trainers, EMS personnel, ER staff, and people in the prehosoital setting.
The ability of these to cool a person has never been quantified, the efficiency and extent of cooling, as well as location of placement of ice packs is purely anecdotal. The purpose of this study is to determine whether strategically placed chemical ice packs will provide benefit to individuals subjected to heat stress.
21 studies on the registry are indexed under Heat Stroke; 10 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 8 is below the median of 34 across 13 interventional studies indexed under Heat Stroke.
