摘要
In a cost-minimization study, we compared tympanic and rectal body temperature measurement in inpatients in a department of internal medicine. At all measurement volumes in a sensitivity analysis, tympanic temperature measurement had markedly lower average cost than rectal measurement, indicating a large savings potential if the former technique is used.
