Summary

This study looks at whether a simple external body landmark can help doctors insert a temperature probe into the right spot in the esophagus. Accurate placement is important for reliable temperature readings in ICU patients. Researchers will use a special ultrasound to check if the landmark method works. The study involves 30 adult ICU patients who already need this ultrasound for their care.
