Heated socks for preventing hypothermia and shivering
This study tests whether special heated socks, designed as a wearable technology, can help prevent hypothermia, improve comfort, and reduce shivering during cold exposure. Eligible participants are healthy adults who meet specific health criteria.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are a healthy adult volunteer.
- You speak and understand Turkish.
- You do not have any chronic diseases (like diabetes or heart disease).
- You are not allergic to the sock material.
- You do not have a pacemaker or similar device.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18.5 and 24.9.

This study tests whether wearing heated socks during bladder tumor surgery helps keep your body temperature stable and your vital signs normal. Patients who are comfortable with heated socks and meet other health criteria may join.
This trial tests a new heating device called 'Therm'Up' to see if it can help prevent or treat hypothermia (dangerously low body temperature) in people who have had a serious injury, are bleeding, have burns, or are stuck in the cold. The goal is to keep patients warm during the time it takes to get them to the hospital.
This study looks at how your body responds to heat and tests different cooling methods. Researchers want to understand heat-related biomarkers (measurable signs in your body) and find the best ways to cool down safely.
This study tests special socks with tiny electronic parts to see if they can reduce nerve pain, numbness, and tingling in people with diabetic neuropathy. If you have mild to moderate symptoms and are not taking new medications for it, you may be able to join.
This study tests different levels of external rewarming (using warm blankets or devices) in healthy people to see how the body responds to warming up from low body temperature.
This study tests if heat therapy can help older adults with type 2 diabetes manage their condition. You will be asked to wear a special garment that circulates warm water to raise your body temperature safely.
