In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this research study is to better understand patient preference and their satisfaction rates with cryotherapy machines based on the direction of the tubing. This study will evaluate both satisfaction and pain of patients who use the cryotherapy machines in the two groups: tubing facing towards the head, and the other with tubing facing toward the feet.
