Insulated skin temperature as a measure of core body temperature for individuals wearing CBRN protective clothing.
This study assessed the validity of insulated skin temperature (Tis) to predict rectal temperature (Tre) for use as a non-invasive measurement of thermal strain to reduce the risk of heat illness for emergency service personnel. Volunteers from the Police, Fire and Rescue, and Ambulance Services performed role-related tasks in hot (30 °C) and neutral (18 °C) conditions, wearing service specific...
متن کاملTympanic membrane temperature as a measure of core temperature.
BACKGROUND Ear thermometers are becoming popular as a method for measuring deep body (core) temperature. AIM To determine the variability of a single user's tympanic membrane (ear) temperature measurements. SUBJECTS Forty-two, afebrile, healthy children, and 20 febrile children with acute burns. RESULTS In afebrile children measurements made in both ears (and within just a few minutes of ...
متن کاملPrediction of Core Body Temperature from Multiple Variables.
This paper aims to improve the prediction of rectal temperature (T re) from insulated skin temperature (T is) and micro-climate temperature (T mc) previously reported (Richmond et al., Insulated skin temperature as a measure of core body temperature for individuals wearing CBRN protective clothing. Physiol Meas 2013; 34:1531-43.) using additional physiological and/or environmental variables, un...
متن کاملReal-time core body temperature estimation from heart rate for first responders wearing different levels of personal protective equipment.
UNLABELLED First responders often wear personal protective equipment (PPE) for protection from on-the-job hazards. While PPE ensembles offer individuals protection, they limit one's ability to thermoregulate, and can place the wearer in danger of heat exhaustion and higher cardiac stress. Automatically monitoring thermal-work strain is one means to manage these risks, but measuring core body te...
متن کاملUse of thermal imagery for estimation of core body temperature during precooling, exertion, and recovery in wildland firefighter protective clothing.
BACKGROUND Monitoring core body temperature to identify heat stress in first responders and in individuals participating in mass gatherings (e.g., marathons) is difficult. OBJECTIVE This study utilized high-sensitivity thermal imaging technology to predict the core temperature of human subjects at a distance while performing simulated field operations wearing thermal protective garments. ME...
