Filter by:The goal of this project is to test the effects of the VibraCool mechanical stimulation neuromodulatory therapeutic device on post-operative pain and opioid use following ACLR, and thus residual opioids in circulation.

The use of evaporative coolants in the management of acute musculoskeletal injury has received increasing attention recently. However, its efficacy compared with conventional cryotherapy in treating injured human subjects remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of evaporative coolants with that of ice packs in the preoperative management of edema and pain in patients with an ankle fracture
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a complex chronic illness associated with a state of high blood glucose level, or hyperglycemia, occurring from deficiencies in insulin secretion, action, or both. Diabetes mellitus is the name given to a wide spectrum group of disorders characterized by raised plasma glucose.Type 1 diabetes is characterized by an absolute insulin deficiency due to autoimmune destruction of insulin producing beta cells in the pancreas. most adults with diabetes have type 2, characterized by a relative insulin secretory defect, and target tissue resistance to the effects of insulin.
There is sympathetic innervation of the muscular spindle. The application of cold to the skin provides an increase in sympathetic activity. In rehabilitation practice, short-term local cold is applied to the skin to provide motor facilitation. The aim of this study was to examine whether short-term local cold application provides an increase in isometric contractile strength and, if so, whether this effect is related to muscle spindle activity.
In the postoperative period of a total knee arthroplasty, subjects present limitations of articular amplitudes, swelling, pain and functional limitations. Functional rehabilitation is unanimously recommended, including the use of cryotherapy. However, there is no consensus regarding the methods of application of cryotherapy. Thus the objective of the study is to compare 2 cryotherapy techniques associated with a classic rehabilitation on the improvement of mobility, swelling, pain and functional parameters. The 2 cryotherapies were a compressive cryotherapy and a so-called classic cryotherapy by cold pack.
Haemorrhoids is a common problem with an estimated prevalence of 5 to 36%. Surgery is indicated in patients with grade 3 to 4 piles and in patients whom conservative measures have failed. There have been several surgical techniques described such as the Milligan- Morgan, Ferguson haemorrhoidectomy, stapled and laser haemorrhoidectomy. However, most patients experience different degrees of postoperative pain which may cause anxiety and dissatisfaction. A relatively non-invasive and cost-effective technique targeting inflammation is cryotherapy which has been shown to decrease pain secondary to trauma, injury or disease. Cryotherapy has few deleterious side effects due to its non-pharmacologic nature and has become widespread in sports medicine to treat soft tissue damage. Therefore, we aim to evaluate the role of cryotherapy in improving postoperative pain and outcomes among patients who undergo haemorrhoidectomy.
Intercostal cryoanalgesia is a technique that allows extensive and prolonged analgesia of the hemithorax. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of intercostal cryoanalgesia as an adjunct to a single-injection paravertebral block for the management of acute thoracic pain after VATS lung resection surgery.

Cryotherapy has beneficial effects such as motor facilitation, increase isometric force generation, and reduce spasticity. It is known that the muscle spindle has sympathetic innervation. Muscle spindle sensitivity increase with sympathetic activity. This research has three hypotheses: First, short-term cold application to the skin increases sympathetic activity. Second, there is an increase in muscle spindle sensitivity with increased sympathetic activity. Third, the effect of short-term cold on muscle spindle sensitivity continues until the skin temperature returns to normal. The purpose of this research is to test these hypotheses.
