The Effect of Simulated Burn Injury on Post Exercise Recovery in Hot Environments
NCT07050264 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Burn survivors have difficulty thermoregulating due to reduced skin blood flow and sweating responses at the grafted sites. It has been previously shown that this impaired heat dissipation results in burn survivors experiencing higher core temperatures for a given exercise/environmental exposure compared to non-burned individuals. This also holds true with the use of simulated burn injury. When an absorbent material is applied to the skin over a desired amount of body surface area, it replicates a burn injury of the same size (i.e., simulated burn injury). A question that remains unknown is if this impaired thermoregulation in burn survivors would affect post-exercise core temperature recovery, i.e., do burn survivors recover slower than non-burned individuals upon stopping exercise. To that end, the primary objective of this project is to determine the rate at which body temperature and other markers of thermoregulation recover after a bout of exercise in the heat and if this response is different in the same individual with and without simulated burn injury.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07050264
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07050264 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 28 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, which has 742 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 3 conditions, with Burn Injury appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Simulated burn injury via application of absorbent and impermeable material over 60% of the body is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07050264 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Texas. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
