Temperature monitoring

چکیده
Newborns have poor thermal stability and therefore infants are extremely vulnerable to body temperature variations. The purpose of choosing a temperature site in neonates is to minimise the effect of extraneous variables such as environment, on the readings. Moreover, the most accurate, least invasive and obtrusive method should be chosen. Traditional, low-tech mercury-glass thermometers are no longer acceptable. This study sought to examine the effect of age, weight, sex, race and ambient temperature on body temperature in newborns and also to compare the level of agreement and relationship between temperature readings from DataTherm, SolarTherm devices and mercury-glass and hard-wire Mallinckrodt devices.

Design and Evaluation of a Pressure and Temperature Monitoring System for Pressure Ulcer Prevention
Introduction Pressure ulcers are tissue damages resulting from blood flow restriction, which occurs when the tissue is exposed to high pressure for a long period of time. These painful sores are common in patients and elderly, who spend extended periods of time in bed or wheelchair. In this study, a continuous pressure and temperature monitoring system was developed for pressure ulcer preventio...

متن کاملMeasuring the temperature dependence of refractive index in water phantom for precise monitoring of the absorbed dose by radiation therapy techniques
In this paper, an experimental setup is used to measure the temperature dependence of the refractive index of a water phantom. In radiation calorimetry by laser beams and interferometric systems, the amount of change induced by radiation within the phantom can be accurately measured. Absorption of dose and the resulted change in temperature changes the refractive index within the material. In o...
متن کاملMonitoring the earth surface temperature and relationship land use with surface temperature using of OLI and TIRS Image
Earth surface temperature is an important indicator in the study of energy equilibrium models at the ground level on a regional and global scale. Due to the limitation of meteorological stations, remote sensing can be an appropriate alternative to the Earth's surface temperature. The main objective of this study is to monitor the surface temperature and its relationship with land use, which is ...
