Could heating your legs at home help you walk farther?
NCT ID NCT05465070
Summary
This study is testing whether a simple, at-home leg heat therapy can help people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) walk farther and feel better. About 106 participants will use special water-circulating trousers daily for three months, with half receiving warm therapy and half receiving a lukewarm 'sham' treatment. Researchers will measure changes in walking distance, leg strength, and quality of life to see if the heat therapy makes a meaningful difference.
