No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn more about the microcirculation in the skin by examining sex and age-related day-to-day variability in healthy subjects. The main questions the trial aims to answer are:

* What is the day-to-day variability of the optical measurement techniques in the microcirculation, and does age and gender affect this?
* Does the day-to-day variability differ in the foot compared to the arm?

Participants will rest whilst skin measurement by optical measurement techniques are performed. Baseline measurements and post-occlusive reactive hyperemia will be studied on the forearm and foot. This measurement procedure is repeated within one week, in order to study variability.

Conditions

  • Healthy Subjects

Interventions

OTHER

Occlusion of the circulation in the arm and foot

A blood pressure cuff occludes the circulation in the upper arm as well as around the ankle.
