Non-invasive Continuous Core Temperature Monitor

个人可能会因在恶劣环境中的体力消耗或无法控制环境而患上中暑。对于在活动和不活动期间使用的非侵入性监测存在主要未满足的需求。所提出的创新是一种便携式，医学上准确的，非侵入性的设备，可以实时连续自动监测个人的核心体温，从而避免中暑，并使生理功能处于安全和最佳水平。现有的测量核心体温的方法都不能提供这种组合功能，而由此产生的技术将显著改善当前的患者护理，并使生理监测的许多新的流动应用能够在从医疗保健到国防的全球市场中大大增加可以从该技术中受益的个人数量。

Individuals may suffer heat illness as a result of physical exertion in harsh environments or the inability to control their environment. There is a major unmet need for non-invasive monitoring for use during activity and inactivity. The innovation presented is a portable, medically accurate, non-invasive device to continuously and automatically monitor the core body temperature of individuals in real-time so that heat illness can be avoided and physiological functions operate at a safe and optimal level. No existing methods of measuring core body temperature that provide this combined functionality and the resultant technologies will significantly improve current patient care and enable many new ambulatory applications of physiology monitoring to vastly increase the number of individuals who can be benefit from the technology, in global markets from healthcare to defence.
