气候损伤,包括体温过低、体温过高和中暑,在许多体育活动中很常见。运动员的身体核心温度(T-c)测量可以影响个人表现,并有助于防止受伤。准确监测体内T-c需要侵入性测量方法。水银温度计,最常用于测量口腔温度(T-oral),自18世纪世纪以来几乎一直是唯一测量T-c的仪器。直肠温度(T-re)和食管温度(T-oes)是体温调节研究中最常用的测量部位。然而,这些测量位点(T-re、T-oes、T-oral)以及用于在这些位点测量T-c的方法并不方便。口腔测量并不总是可能或准确的。由于插入热敏电阻的困难、对鼻道的刺激和一般受试者的不适,T-oes是不期望的。T-re在许多情况下并不适用,因为它是劳动密集型的,并且具有较长的响应时间。然而,T-re仍然是监测运动活动期间发生的热病中T-c的最准确方法。此外,T-re和T-oes需要热敏电阻和监测设备之间的导线连接。的目的。本文综述了现有的各种T-c测量方法,并着重于寻找一种简单、无创、通用的T-c测量装置的突破,这对预防体育赛事中的气候损伤至关重要。
Climatic injuries, including hypothermia, hyperthermia and heat stroke, are common in many sports activities. Body core temperature (T-c) measurement for the sportsperson can influence individual performance and may help to prevent injuries. Monitoring internal body T-c accurately requires invasive methods of measurement. The mercury thermometer, most commonly used to measure oral temperature (T-oral), has been almost exclusively the only instrument for measuring T-c since the 18th century. Rectal (T-re) and oesophageal temperatures (T-oes) have been the most preferred measurement sites employed in thermoregulatory investigations. However, these measurement sites (T-re, T-oes, T-oral), and the methods used to measure T-c at these sites, are not convenient. T-oral measurements are not always possible or accurate. T-oes is undesirable because of the difficulty of inserting the thermistor, irritation to nasal passages and general subject discomfort. T-re is not suitable under many circumstances as it is labour intensive and has a prolonged response time. However, T-re remains the most accurately available method for monitoring T-c in thermal illness that occurs during sports activities. In addition, T-re and T-oes require wire connections between the thermistor and the monitoring device. The purpose of. this paper is to review the various existing methods of T-c measurements in order to focus on the breakthrough needed for a simple, noninvasive, universally used device for T-c measurement which is essential for preventing climatic injuries during sports events.
