The Detection of Heat Stress by Assessing Individual Body Responses to Heat (Heat Strain) in Young and Healthy Non-athlete Participants — HEATSTAR  

Heat Stress Clinical Trial

Official title:
HEAT Stress Detection From Personally STandARdized Heat Strain Measurements - The HEATSTAR Pilot Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

• This study investigates and compares the within and in-between variances of the body responses to different heat stressors in a controlled lab-setting. The participants will be exposed to different heat sources while a variety of physiological heat strain reactions such as heartrate, sweat rate, and core body temperature are recorded using on- and in-body devices. For the participant monitoring during the study, medical grade devices such as a certified ECG and a swallowable sensor-pill to continuously monitor the core body temperature will be applied. A one-for-all wearable device is additionally applied for physiological validation. Further, sweat will be collected to assess (i) the local sweat rate and (ii) the appearance of different heat stress associated molecular markers in this non-invasively collectable biofluid. As a secondary aim, a model will be developed that will enable to predict the different heat stress sources out of the heat strain measurements.
