Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the changes in skin temperature, blood pressure, and proprioception of the knee joint in youth elite soccer players through ice pack application.
25 male youth soccer players were selected based on a cold sensitivity test from a local club.
Ice packs were applied to the dominant knee for 15 minutes in four positions: supine, sitting, standing, and locomotion, controlling for exercise effects.
Skin temperature, blood pressure, and proprioception were measured pre- and post-application to compare effects based on posture and application time.
Skin temperature significantly differed across postural methods at baseline, 5 minutes, and 10 minutes (p<0.05).
Systolic blood pressure showed significant differences in sitting and standing positions across application times (p<0.05).
Proprioception also demonstrated significant changes in the standing position across application times (p<0.05).
