Safety and Feasibility of Prima-Temp Thermometer Patch

Completed

Conditions studied: Erythema, Edema, Papules White, Eruption

In brief

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and feasibility of the Prima-Temp Thermometer Patch in determining baseline temperatures of research subjects in a hospital intensive care unit (ICU). Primary Objective: Assess safety of the Prima-Temp temperature patch with nursing staff skin site assessments. Secondary Objective: Establish individual subject baseline temperature using intermittent temperature measurements (every 5 minutes) with the Prima-Temp thermometer patch and wireless transmission of the data to a receiver box and HIPAA compliant, centrally located personal computer (PC) and compare research subject's baseline temperature with temperatures taken in the ICU in the normal course of care.
