["TermoSpot" for the liquid-crystal indication of postoperative hypothermia in newborns].
Comparative prospective randomized measurements of body temperature were postoperatively made in 15 newborns by "Termospot", a new liquid-crystal temperature indicator. An analysis of 576 measuring examinations revealed a high-information density of the liquid-crystal cutaneous test (Se = 90.08; Pw = 0.98; Sp = 66.67). The subcutaneous liquid crystal "TermoSpot" temperature indicator could be an important tool in postoperative monitoring of hypothermia in newborn.
