Summary
Four patients underwent whole-body cryo-therapy in a Medivent-GKT at −150°C.
Fifteen minutes and 5 min before the treatment dopamine, noradrenalin, adrenalin, serotonin, β-endorphin, and Cortisol levels were measured. The same parameters were examined immediately after whole-body cryo-therapy, and then successively in intervals of 15 min up to 105 min.
Dopamine, adrenalin, and serotonin levels were measured by the HPLC/ECD method; β-endorphin and Cortisol were measured by the RIA-method.
