An interventional study of Noninvasive core temperature thermistor in Body Temperature Regulation, sponsored by Sheba Medical Center. Status unknown at 1 site in Israel. Open to male participants aged 18 Years to 25 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2013-12-20.
Sponsored by Sheba Medical Center · Not applicable, Interventional, and Basic science
Soldiers are required to perform and maintain alertness in difficult environmental conditions. The sensor examined in this trail may indicate body core temperature elevation during exertion. 12 male volunteers will arrive to our lab and perform a protocol of sitting and walking in thermoneutral and hot environments with two core temperature sensors. The results obtained from them will be compared.
During the protocol the volunteers will sit in thermoneutral condition for 30 minutes, than they will sit in hot chamber (40 celsius and 40% relative humidity). Afterwards, the participants will walk on a treadmill in 5 km/hr and 4% incline for one hour. The participants will be connected to rectal thermistor which is considered the "gold standard" and to the new noninvasive sensor which is attached to the skin surface.
Sheba Medical Center is the lead sponsor of 660 studies on the registry; 63 are open to participants now.
Counted across the registry records on this site, refreshed daily.
Exclusion Criteria:
This trial contains one group which will undergo the described protocol while connected to both sensors: a rectal thermistor and a non invasive thermistor.
Biological: Noninvasive core temperature thermistor
Rectal temperature
The participants will undergo the described protocol and their rectal temperature will be measured by rectal thermistor and the new noninvasive thermistor and will be monitored continuously and viewed by the attending medical staff. Automatically all data will be recorded by the monitoring Biopac system.
Time frame: 1 year
