Table 1 Intraclass correlation coefficients along with the 95% confidence intervals for the measures derived from the REDSTIM output across 3 different days of testing

	eVAS = 20	Probability	eVAS = 35	Probability
	ICC (95%CI)		ICC (95%CI)
Positive AUC	0.79 (0.51-0.92)	p < 0.001	0.88 (0.71-0.96)	p < 0.001
Negative AUC	0.52 (0.00-0.60)	p = 0.041	0.80 (0.54-0.93)	p < 0.001
Running Ave Temp: 60 sec	0.90 (0.76-0.96)	p < 0.001	0.94 (0.85-0.98)	p < 0.001
Running Ave Temp: 120 sec	0.89 (0.74-0.96)	p < 0.001	0.92 (0.81-0.97)	p < 0.001

Positive AUC = Mean area under the curve of positive half-cycles.
Negative AUC = Mean area under the curve of negative half-cycles.
Running Ave Temp: 60 sec = Mean temperature across first 60 seconds of trial.
Running Ave Temp: 120 sec = Mean temperature across entire 120 seconds of trial.
