초록

Purpose: This study explored the validity of a new type of thermometer and parent satisfaction with the new device. This 24-hour continuous monitoring smart wearable wireless thermometer (TempTraqᆴ) uses a very small semiconductor sensor with a thin patch-like shape. Methods: We obtained 397 sets of TempTraqᆴ axillary temperatures and tympanic temperatures from 44 pediatric patients. Agreement between the axillary and tympanic measurements, as well as the validity of the TempTraqᆴ axillary temperatures, were evaluated. Satisfaction surveys were completed by 41 caregivers after the measurements. Results: The TempTraqᆴ axillary temperatures demonstrated a strong positive correlation with the tympanic temperatures. The Bland-Altman plot and analysis of TempTraqᆴ axillary temperatures and tympanic temperatures showed that the mean difference was +0.45 ℃, the 95% limits of agreement were –0.57 to +1.46 ℃. Based on a tympanic temperature of 38 ℃, the results of validity of fever detection were sensitivity 0.85 and specificity 0.86. Satisfaction scores for TempTraqᆴ temperature measurement were all > 4 points (satisfactory). Conclusion: TempTraqᆴ smart axillary temperature measurement is an appropriate method for measuring children's temperatures since it was highly correlated to tympanic temperatures, had a reliable level of sensitivity and specificity, and could be used safely and conveniently.
