Field testing two animal-specific non-contact thermometers on healthy horses

Non-contact infrared thermometers.

floaters. Visual acuity was 6/18-2 in the left eye and 6/60 in the right. Dilated fundus examination showed bilateral vitreous haemorrhages, with neovascularisation at the disc and elsewhere, and tractional retinal detachments. Non-fasting pinprick blood glucose was 20.3 mmol/L and blood pressure was 140/100 mmHg. The patient denied weight loss (BMI 18 kg/m2) or polydipsia, although detailed qu...

Non-contact infrared thermometers for measuring temperature in children: primary care diagnostic technology update.

e681 British Journal of General Practice, October 2014 BACKGROUND AND ADVANTAGES OVER EXISTING TECHNOLOGY Temperature is an important vital sign for assessing acutely unwell children, and is measured frequently in primary care. However, measuring temperature accurately can be challenging. Oral and rectal thermometers are invasive and poorly tolerated, while axillary thermometers require parents...

Mechanisms of dynamic force microscopy on polyvinyl alcohol: region-specific non-contact and intermittent contact regimes

Dynamic force microscopy (DFM) phase signals were studied using heterogeneous films of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The phase was measured as a function of distance and drive frequency over regions of the film with different dissipative properties. When driving below the free resonance frequency at moderate amplitudes, the tip—sample interaction jumps between non-contact and intermittent contact re...
