초록

Purpose: This study aimed to establish a basis for application time and cold therapy interval by checking the physiological changes after applying a cold-gel and ice pack, commonly applied to cold therapy, and after passive rewarming. Method: A total of 22 healthy adults used cold-gel packs and ice packs in a Randomized control group repeated measurement study, and passive rewarming was performed for 40 minutes after 30 minutes of cold therapy. After applying to the right axilla, StO₂, SpO₂, peripheral blood flow, skin and body temperature were measured 15 times every 5 minutes. Result: In the cold-gel pack group, StO₂ decreased from 69.43% to 61.06% after 30 minutes application, and in the ice pack group, StO₂ decreased from 67.66% to 64.80% (p <001). In the cold-gel pack group, skin temperature decreased from 33.57°C to 29.15°C after 30 minutes application, and in the ice pack group, skin temperature decreased from 32.64°C to 28.90°C (p <.001). Only skin temperature recovered completely after 40 minutes of rewarming. There were insignificant differences between the cold-gel pack and ice pack. Conclusion: When applying cold therapy to the axillary, at least 40 minutes for passive rewarming is necessary after 30 minutes of application.
