The main objective of this study was to validate gastrointestinal measurement with the e-Celsius® system composed of an ingestible electronic capsule and a monitor. Twenty-three healthy volunteers aged 18-59 years stayed at the hospital for 24 h under fasting conditions. They were only allowed for quiet activity and were asked to keep their sleeping habits. Subjects ingested a Jonah capsule and an e-Celsius® capsule, and a rectal probe and an esophageal probe were inserted. Mean temperature measured by the e-Celsius® device was lower than that measured by Vitalsense® (-0.12 ± 0.22°C; p < 0.001) and the rectal probe (-0.11 ± 0.03°C; p = 0.003) and higher than that measured by the esophageal probe (0.17 ± 0.05; p = 0.006). Mean difference (bias) and 95% confidence intervals between temperature of e-Celsius capsule, Vitalsense Jonah capsule, esophageal probe, and rectal probe were computed using Bland and Altman procedure. The magnitude of the measurement bias is significantly greater when comparing the e-Celsius® and the Vitalsense® device pair with any other device pairs containing the esophageal probe. Amplitude of confidence interval between the e-Celsius® system and the Vitalsense® system was 0.67°C. This amplitude was significantly lower than those of the esophageal probe-e-Celsius® pairing (0.83°C; p = 0.027), of the esophageal probe-Vitalsense (0.78°C; p = 0.046) and of the esophageal probe-rectal probe (0.83°C; p = 0.002). The statistical analysis did not reveal any effect of time on the amplitude of bias, whatever the device concerned. When comparing missing data rate of the e-Celsius® system (0.23 ± 0.15%) and the Vitalsense® devices (0.70 ± 0.11%) during the whole experiment, no differences was observed (p = 0.09). The e-Celsius® system could be used when a continuous following of internal temperature is needed.

Core temperature monitoring is a research tool used in many studies, though most popularly, heat strain. Ingestible core temperature capsules are a non-invasive and increasingly popular choice for measuring core body temperature, particularly considering the well-established validation of capsule systems. A newer version of the e-Celsius ingestible core temperature capsule has been released since the preceding validation study resulting in a paucity of validated research for the current version of capsules, P022-P, used by researchers.

Purpose: Telemetric temperature capsule systems are wireless, relatively noninvasive, and easily applicable in field conditions and have therefore great advantages for monitoring core body temperature. However, the accuracy and responsiveness of available capsule systems have not been compared previously. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the validity, reliability, and inertia characteristics of four ingestible temperature capsule systems (i.

: Intestinal temperature telemetry systems are promising monitoring and research tools in athletes. However, the additional equipment that must be carried to continuously record temperature data limits their use to training. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of a new gastrointestinal temperature data logging and telemetry system (e-Celsius™) during water bath experimentation and exercise trials.
