About this study
Official title: Analysis of the Effect of Different Cryotherapy Procedures on the Radial Puncture Site for Blood Gas Analysis Randomized Controlled Trial

Principal Investigator: Julio Alberto Mateos Arroyo (RN, MSc, PhD student) Directors: Ignacio Zaragoza García (RN, PhD), Ismael Ortuño Soriano (RN, PhD), Paloma Posada Moreno (PhD).
Setting: Faculty of Nursing, Physiotherapy and Podiatry of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
The three interventions to be evaluated are:
- Applying crushed ice.
- Apply frozen peas.
- Apply comparator.
Hypothesis: There are differences in the reduction of temperature, dimensions of the internal lumen of the radial artery and blood flow inside it depending on the different modalities of cryotherapy (crushed ice or bag of frozen peas) applied in the anatomical area of the wrist, point of arterial puncture for blood gas analysis.
Main objective: To analyze the effect of 3 cryotherapy devices on the radial artery area.
Secondary objectives
- To analyze the thermal behavior of the superficial tissue under study according to the cryotherapy device used.
- To analyze the differences in the radial artery caliber before and after the application of cold in the different experimental modalities under study.
- To analyze the differences in radial artery blood flow before and after the application of cold in the different experimental modalities under study.
- To identify the safety pattern of the use of the different cryotherapy devices (adverse events).
Design: Randomized controlled clinical trial. This is a crossover clinical trial in which all participants will receive all interventions and will be randomized in the order in which they receive them.
Population: Adults with a good general state of health, who specifically do not have factors that could affect their thermoregulation or vascular pathologies.
Main variables:
- Skin surface temperature.
- Radial artery size.
- Radial artery blood flow.
Read the detailed description
Pain caused by arterial puncture for blood gas analysis is one of the most common problems with this procedure. The low utilization rates of effective methods by healthcare providers for pain reduction, such as subcutaneous infiltration of anesthetics, make it necessary to search for effective and simple methods. The use of cryotherapy devices has proven effective for this purpose because the decrease in temperature increases pain threshold and tolerance due to a reduction in nerve conduction velocity and inhibition of nociceptors. In order to standardize these devices, it is necessary to understand the specific thermodynamic and hemodynamic effects of these devices. At the hemodynamic level, the reduction in temperature can produce arterial vasoconstriction. This effect may decrease the palpation of the radial artery, a necessary step for the identification of the optimal point of arterial puncture. Our hypothesis is that there are differences in temperature reduction, radial artery internal lumen dimensions and blood flow inside the radial artery depending on the different cryotherapy modalities applied in the anatomical area of the wrist, the point of arterial puncture for blood gas analysis. In order to obtain an answer to this hypothesis, we will propose a randomized controlled clinical trial with a sham comparator and two active interventions: crushed ice and frozen peas. In addition, this trial has a crossover design with the aim of minimizing the differences that may arise due to individual particularities (within-group variability), and thus increase the possible effect of the interventions (between-group variability). This choice has its justification in that the application of cryotherapy, according to some studies, has a thermal reducing effect with high individual variability. In this study, adults with a good general state of health, who specifically do not have factors that could affect their thermoregulation or vascular pathologies, will be recruited.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Crushed iceDevice
Also called ih1
Each participant will receive two active devices and one sham comparator in a crossover design.The cryotherapy device used consists of an opaque bag with a plastic outer cover and an aluminum interior filled with 80 grams of crushed ice. This device is applied on the skin where the optimal palpation point of the radial artery is located, where arterial puncture for blood gas analysis is usually performed to reduce skin temperature in ranges that decrease nerve conduction velocity and increase pain threshold.
Frozen peasDevice
Also called ig2
Each participant will receive two active devices and one sham comparator in a crossover design. The cryotherapy device used consists of an opaque bag with a plastic outer cover and an aluminum interior filled with 80 grams of frozen peas. This device is applied on the skin where the optimal palpation point of the radial artery is located, where arterial puncture for blood gas analysis is usually performed to reduce skin temperature in ranges that decrease nerve conduction velocity and increase pain threshold.
Room temperature gelDevice
Also called ctrl
Each participant will receive two active devices and one sham comparator in a crossover design. The sham comparator device used consists of an opaque bag with an external plastic cover and an aluminum interior filled with 80 grams of ultrasound gel at room temperature. This device is applied on the skin where the optimal palpation point of the radial artery is located, where arterial puncture for blood gas analysis is usually performed.

Secondary outcomes (2)
Change in radial artery size
Three measurements of the anteroposterior diameter of the radial artery will be taken in the same place and plane to ensure reliability at each time point studied. Samsung HS50 ultrasound scanner with a 3-14 Hz linear probe will be used for the measurement.
Measured: 0-20 minutes
Change in radial artery blood flow
To obtain the blood flow of the radial artery, color Doppler mode will be used to correctly identify the vessel and then the pulsed Doppler mode will be used to obtain the peak systolic low (PSV), that is, the maximum systolic velocity (VSM). Three consecutive PSV measurements will be obtained in the same place and plane to ensure reliability at each time point studied. Samsung HS50 ultrasound scanner with a 3-14 Hz linear probe will be used for the measurement.
Measured: 0-20 minutes

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Crushed ice, Frozen peas and Room temperature gel in people with Temperature and Blood Flow Velocity, run by Julio Alberto Mateos Arroyo at 1 site in Spain.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Skin temperature (time frame: Prior to application of the intervention). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Aug 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
