Continuos Body Temperature Monitoring

Recruiting

• Conditions: Fever

• Registration Number: NCT06447337
• Lead Sponsor: Baby FM Doo

Brief Summary

This is a nonrandomized, diagnostic, single-center, pilot study, with one group of participants. The aim is to examine the effectiveness and safety of telemedicine system for continuous measurement of body temperature in adults. Up to 40 subjects will participate in this phase of the clinical trial. No stratification, nor randomization of subjects will be performed. Respondents who meet the inclusion criteria will be monitored for up to 72 hours plus 72 hours after removing the device. Namely, the device will be placed on their body and will be there until upt to 72 hours, and then it will be removed. The respondent will be monitored by the team for an additional 72 hours by the person in charge of the examination, for possible side effects.

Sensor will be placed in the axilar joint or a little below on the side. The device will be connected to a mobile phone. Member of the research team (principal researcher/co-researcher/ nurse in charge of examination) measures the temperature of the skin in the opposite armpit manually, ie with a gallium thermometer and records every 30-60 minutes. When body temperature starts to rise, a member of the research team measures the body temperature every 15-30 minutes. After reaching a stable temperature, the temperature is measured every 30-60 minutes. If the subject is given drugs to lower body temperature, the temperature is measured again every 15-30 minutes until the temperature stabilizes to a normal subfebrile state.
