Summary
This study tested whether a swallowable capsule that measures body temperature from inside the body works as well as a standard ear thermometer. It included 30 adults with blood cancer who had low white blood cell counts (neutropenia) and were in the hospital. The goal was to see if the capsule could help detect fevers earlier and speed up treatment with antibiotics.
