Summary

This study tested whether a wearable thermometer called TempTraq can accurately measure body temperature in adults in the intensive care unit. Researchers compared it to a standard catheter thermometer in 60 patients. If proven accurate, TempTraq could offer a less invasive way to monitor temperature.
