NCT07201935
Brief Summary:
This pilot study investigates the effects of cold-water immersion, traditional sauna use, and their combination on sleep architecture, glymphatic clearance, and psycho-affective health in military cadets. The study uses wearable technologies including the Oura Ring and the Applied Cognition Glymphatic Monitor to collect objective sleep and physiological data.
Detailed Description:
The study will enroll 45 military cadets from The Citadel Military College, randomized into three groups: Cold-Water Immersion (CWI), High Heat Sauna (HHS), and Combined (COM). Participants will undergo a 7-day baseline period followed by a 14-day intervention. Sleep architecture, glymphatic function, and psycho-affective health will be assessed using validated wearable devices and questionnaires. The study aims to identify intervention-specific improvements in sleep and glymphatic clearance.
