|---|---|
| Study design | Experimental study on healthy individuals |
| Secondary study design | Other |
| Scientific title | |
| Study acronym | TNB-sEMG |
| Study objectives | Does thermo-neutral whole body immersion into water influence the measurement of surface Electromyography (EMG)? |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval was not sought for this trial. All subjects were informed about the study and written consent forms were provided from each of them. |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Healthy individuals |
| Intervention | All participants received the same intervention. Each participant immersed his/her forearm in the thermo-neutral bath for one minute. In order to see the effect of the immersion on the participants, EMG measurements were made before and after the immersion process. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
To measure thermo-neutral whole body immersion effect on measurements of surface electromyography on healthy subjects. |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
Efficacy of thermo-neutral whole body immersion on measurements of surface electromyography on healthy subjects. |
