Abstract:
:OBJECTIVE: To test the influence of cooling on proprioceptive acuity as reflected in the ability to discriminate weights. DESIGN AND SETTING: Participants were trained to perform a weight-discrimination task. Their ability to correctly report small increments in weight was compared before and after local cooling (a 20-minute application of a crushed-ice pack) of the quadriceps muscle group. Data were collected at a university research laboratory. SUBJECTS: Twenty young, physically active adults (undergraduate students; 14 men, 6 women; mean age, 22.1 +/- 2.6 years). MEASUREMENTS: We calculated overall performance in the weight-discrimination task (percentage of discrimination correct) for each participant to estimate the differential threshold (ie, minimal increment in weight that yields a probability of 75% correct responses). RESULTS: Before local cooling, participants discriminated increments in the order of 4% to 10% from the standard weight (mean threshold, 0.17 +/- 0.06 kg). After local cooling, the discriminative performance remained, on average, very similar to that seen before cooling (mean threshold, 0.17 +/- 0.08 kg; paired t test: t = 0.24, P =.81). Only a small group of participants (n = 5) showed evidence of a decreased ability to discriminate weight after cooling. CONCLUSIONS: The perception of force signals required for weight discrimination does not appear to be affected by local cooling of the quadriceps muscle group. This finding provides additional evidence for the relative safety of cold applications and their effect on proprioceptive perceptual abilities.
