Abstract
A system and method of using same is provided for deriving accurate measurements of core body temperature of a subject. A temperature sensing device is provided for sensing a temperature-related parameter of the subject and generating a first signal representative thereof, and a respiratory gas sensing device is provided for sensing a respiration-related parameter of the subject and generating a second signal representative thereof. Additionally, signal correlation device connected to the temperature and respiration sensing devices is provided for determining from the second signal an optimal time interval for measuring the core body temperature of the subject and obtaining from the first signal a value for core body temperature during that interval.
