- W2774528089 abstract "Cooling of the lower limb in people with Hereditary and Spontaneous Spastic Paraparesis (pwHSSP) has been shown to affect walking speed and neuromuscular impairments. The investigation of practical strategies, which may help to alleviate these problems is important. The potential of superficial heat to improve walking speed has not been explored in pwHSSP. Primary objective was to explore whether the application of superficial heat (hot packs) to lower limbs in pwHSSP improves walking speed. Secondary objective was to explore whether wearing insulation after heating would prolong any benefits. A randomised crossover study design with 21 pwHSSP. On two separate occasions two hot packs and an insulating wrap (Neo-G™) were applied for 30 minutes to the lower limbs of pwHSSP. On one occasion the insulating wrap was maintained for a further 30 minutes and on the other occasion it was removed. Measures of temperature (skin, room and core), walking speed (10 metre timed walk) and co-ordination (foot tap time) were taken at baseline (T1), after 30 mins (T2) and at one hour (T3). All 21 pwHSSP reported increased lower limb stiffness and decreased walking ability when their legs were cold. After thirty minutes of heating, improvements were seen in walking speed (12.2%, P < 0.0001, effect size 0.18) and foot tap time (21.5%, P < 0.0001, effect size 0.59). Continuing to wear insulation for a further 30 minutes gave no additional benefit; with significant improvements in walking speed maintained at one hour (9.9%, P > 0.001) in both conditions. Application of 30 minutes superficial heating moderately improved walking speed in pwHSSP with effects maintained at 1 hour. The use of hot packs applied to lower limbs should be the focus of further research for the clinical management of pwHSSP who report increased stiffness of limbs in cold weather and do not have sensory deficits." @default.
