No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the impact of different environmental factors on the ability for a thermistor-based epitympanic thermometer to accurately read the temperature of a normothermic individual and thereby estimate their feasibility and reliability in the austere pre-hospital setting.
