entrainment occurs when an externally applied periodic temperature stimulus forces the peripheral blood flow component of thermoregulation to oscillate at the same frequency. this phenomenon can be demonstrated using frequency transforms to analyze the spectral content of the blood flow, and can be used as a diagnostic test for raynaud's phenomenon. correlations were performed between the clinical diagnosis and the objective tests. the average inter-clinical correlation coefficient was r=0.66. when the average clinical diagnosis was compared with a combination of thermal entrainment and digital patency testing the correlation coefficient rose to r=0.68. these results highlight the difficulties encountered when assessing patients with raynaud's phenomenon and the necessity of applying both physiological and clinical techniques
