Abstract
An electronic clinical thermometer having a low frequency of errors can be implemented. The electronic clinical thermometer for predicting an equilibrium temperature based on a temporal change in the actual measurement value of a temperature at a measurement target detected by a temperature detection element includes an abnormal change detection unit which detects an abnormal change of an actual measurement value from the temperature detection element, and a control unit which controls the start timing of a temporal change in actual measurement value used for derivation of a prediction value when the abnormal change detection unit detects an abnormality.
Claims6
An electronic clinical thermometer for predicting an equilibrium temperature based on a temporal change in actual measurement value of a temperature at a measurement target detected by a temperature detection element, comprising
- abnormal change detection means for detecting an abnormal change of an actual measurement value from the temperature detection element, and
- control means for controlling a start timing of a temporal change in actual measurement value used for derivation of a prediction value when said abnormal change detection means detects an abnormality.
A method of controlling an electronic clinical thermometer for predicting an equilibrium temperature based on a temporal change in actual measurement value of a temperature at a measurement target detected by a temperature detection element, comprising
- an abnormal change detection step of detecting an abnormal change of an actual measurement value from the temperature detection element, and
- a control step of controlling a start timing of a temporal change in actual measurement value used for derivation of a prediction value when an abnormality is detected in the abnormal change detection step.
A control program of an electronic clinical thermometer for predicting an equilibrium temperature based on a temporal change in actual measurement value of a temperature at a measurement target detected by a temperature detection element, comprising
- a program code for an abnormal change detection step of detecting an abnormal change of an actual measurement value from the temperature detection element, and
- a program code for a control step of controlling a start timing of a temporal change in actual measurement value used for derivation of a prediction value when an abnormality is detected in the abnormal change detection step.
