Temperature Monitoring

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1996
Central temperature is usually tightly regulated in human beings. Anesthesia alters the normal thermoregulatory controls of the body. Intraoperatively, mild degrees of hypothermia may provide some cerebral protection. However, the risk of organ dysfunction and shivering require that the anesthesiologist be prepared to treat severe hypothermia ...

Urine Temperature and Core Temperature

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1986
To the Editor.— In a recent article on hypothermia in the elderly, Keilson et al 1 describe a method for measuring body temperature from the temperature of freshly voided urine. After finding a poor correlation with oral temperature, they conclude that "urine temperature does not measure core temperature values." This conclusion does not appear ...

Measuring temperature

Nursing Standard, 2008
Temperature measurement is an essential clinical skill and is recognised as being an important indicator in assessing the course of an illness. This article identifies temperature ranges and describes the procedures for taking temperature orally and via the tympanic canal in adult and paediatric patients.

Temperature Regulation

Annual Review of Physiology, 1975
The general way of looking at short-term temperature regulation has not fundamentaly changed since 1968. Some points nevertheless have been developed and deserve special attention: 1. The influence of water on the skin surface inhibits sweat secretion (55, 106).

Temperature and Temperature Scales

Journal of Applied Physics, 1940
An attempt has been made here to cover the general subject of temperature and methods of expressing temperature. The fundamental concepts involved are developed, the basis and significance of a thermodynamic scale are discussed, and the relation of various practical scales, in particular the International Temperature Scale, to the thermodynamic scale ...

Temperature measurement

Biomedizinische Technik/Biomedical Engineering, 2011
For many decades the measurement of body core temperature has been ubiquitously established in medical and non-medical applications, e.g., in hospitals, occupational medicine, sports medicine, military and other settings. However, there are still numerous challenges, such as the precise definition of the body core temperature, establishing the clinical
