Cooling Technology

Yesterday I had a conversation with an acquaintance affiliated with an NFL team. He mentioned that some teams are using special cooling gloves developed by Stanford on the sidelines. The purpose of the device is to quickly cool players down. I have found information about the technology and have put links below. I have no idea if this would work for EM (and the mfr clearly states it is not a medical device). I have no association with this product but just want to share the info. I saw somewhere that they cost around $900. One of the articles mentions that they’ve had some positive results with MS patients.

Does anyone know about this technology or if it would be beneficial for EM?

I wonder how this differs from another product a member asked about a while back?

Will be interesting to see if anyone has any information.
