Vikocoolant spray, also known as cold spray; It is a form of cryotherapy (cold treatment) used in sports medicine, athletic training, sports competitions and rehabilitation environments. It has been demonstrated in the literature that local cold application may cause increased resistance to movement. It has been reported in some studies that muscle can change its mechanical properties in a short time. However, the effect of cold spray application on the mechanical properties of the muscle is unknown. Therefore, in the current study proposal, the investigators aim to investigate the acute effect of cold spray application on the mechanical properties of the quadriceps muscle in athletes.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Measurement of skin temperature | For thermal imaging, a 120-9-90 pixel resolution FLIR E5 camera thermal camera (FLIR Systems AB, Sweden) will be used, and Color Palette iron will be selected to display images. The video will be taken from a distance of 1 m at a speed of 8 photos / s. | Change from skin temperature at 0 minute, 2 minute, 15 minute post-spray | |
Primary | Evaluation of the mechanical properties of the muscle-1 | Viscoelastic stiffness [N/m] will be measured in MyotonPro 3 (MYO, Tallin, Estonia). | Change from mechanical properties at 0 minute, 2 minute, 15 minute post-spray | |
Primary | Evaluation of the mechanical properties of the muscle-2 | Oscillation frequency (Hz) will be measured in MyotonPro 3 (MYO, Tallin, Estonia). | Change from mechanical properties at 0 minute, 2 minute, 15 minute post-spray | |
Primary | Evaluation of the mechanical properties of the muscle-3 | Mechanical stiffness (N/m)will be measured in MyotonPro 3 (MYO, Tallin, Estonia). | Change from mechanical properties at 0 minute, 2 minute, 15 minute post-spray |
