Estimation of Mean Body Temperature from Mean Skin and Core Temperature

Mean body temperature and the control of thermal sweating.

Calculation of mean skin temperature and changes in body heat content during paediatric anaesthesia.

Mean skin temperature and changes in body heat content were calculated in several different ways from measurements made in five children during operation. Mean skin temperatures were calculated from 162 sets of measurements using 15, 12, eight, seven and four skin sites with various formulae modified according to age. The results of other formulae were compared with age-adjusted, area-weighted ...

Empirical estimation of the monthly-mean daily temperature range

This is a sequel to a study of the empirical estimation of the annual mean temperature and its range, at any location on land, based on the historical surface climate record. Here the spatial patterns of the daily temperature range (DTR) and its seasonal variation are examined. The DTR is highest in the subtropical deserts and is less at high latitudes, as well as within 30–150 km from an ocean...

Effect of rapid temperature change on mean body temperature and gill ventilation in carp.

Carp were transferred from 25 degrees C water to a calorimeter at 15 degrees C or from 15 degrees C water to a calorimeter at 25 degrees C. During cooling, dorsal muscle temperature (Tdm) and mean body temperature (Tb) were continuously monitored. During the first minutes Tb changed rapidly, while Tdm changed only slightly. In a 0.468-dg fish, Tdm decreased to two-thirds of the final value in 8...

skin temperature over the carotid artery, an accurate non-invasive estimation of near core temperature

conclusions the present study was the first research, in which rectum temperature was compared with that of skin over carotid artery, to find a safe location with easier access and higher accuracy for estimating near core body temperature. results obtained in this study showed that, using a model, it is possible to evaluate near core body temperature in children, by measuring skin temperature o...
