New thermometer aims to take core temperature from the skin
NCT ID NCT07432269
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will check if a new electronic thermometer (XST600) can accurately measure core body temperature when placed on the skin. Researchers will compare its readings to a standard thermometer used in hospitals. About 117 adults who need temperature monitoring will take part.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- XST600 electronic thermometer
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a more convenient and accurate way to measure core body temperature through the skin.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage device validation study. The new thermometer may not prove accurate enough to replace current methods.
