Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The difference in body temperature measured by eardrum thermometer and esophageal thermometer

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Measurement of body temperature measured by eardrum thermometer, esophageal thermometer, and skin thermometer;As a safety test, the condition of the external auditory canal and eardrum is checked with an otoscope before and after applying the tympanic thermometer, and photographs are taken.;As a safety test, a dye (medical dye) is applied to the tip of the tympanic thermometer, applied to the external auditory canal, and then the distance between the tip of the tympanic thermometer and the eardrum is measured using an electronic otoscope. (Confirmation of safety to the eardrum)
