抄録

Core temperature, the temperature of humans' brain and organs, is one of the most important signs of the human body. Abnormalities can be detected in early time by monitoring the fluctuation of core temperature. Nowadays core thermometer using the Zero-Heat-Flux method is widely used in clinical settings, but it was still unwearable during its considerable power consumption.In order to noninvasively measure core temperature under ambulatory conditions, we have been developing a wearable core thermometer based on the Zero-Heat-Flux method. From the results obtained by simultaneous measurement using a commercial deep-body thermometer (CTM-205, TERUMO), it was confirmed that the prototype had nearly the same accuracy, and its power consumption was reduced to about 1/4 since the aluminum shell and the surrounding skin surface were covered by insulating materials. It could be considered to use in the future for protecting people from heatstroke and other heat diseases in their daily life.
