Temperature
Hospital Data Collection
Non-invasive skin surface or directional
temperature Measurements compared to Non-invasive
Routine
Measurement Standards:
Non-invasive skin surface or
directional temperatures will be measured and compared to known
reference thermometry readings from one or more
of the following routine measurement standards:
tympanic, forehead, oral, and axillary.
Data collection on non-hospital and / or hospitalized patients.
Non-invasive skin surface or directional
temperature Measurements compared to
Compared to
Esophageal Temperature Sensor:
Non-invasive skin surface or
directional temperatures will be measured and compared to core body
temperature as measured by an esophageal
temperature sensor placed at heart level
on non-hospital
and / or hospitalized patients.
Custom Development Studies
Studies can be designed to
investigate and/ or target specific requirements for
thermoregulatory
measurements on non-hospital and / or hospitalized
patients. New test types may be designed to
evaluate specific
issues.
