Study reveals burn survivors may struggle to cool down after exercise
NCT ID NCT07050264
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how a simulated burn injury affects how quickly the body cools down after exercise in hot conditions. Researchers will compare the same person's recovery with and without a special material on the skin that mimics a burn. The goal is to understand if burn survivors take longer to return to normal body temperature after physical activity. The study involves 28 healthy adults aged 18 to 65.
