The temperature variable is a key indicator of the subject’s physiological status. The continuous nature of the measurement is quite difficult to obtain and only a few restrictive devices (rectal, esophageal probes, etc.) allow continuous core temperature monitoring.
The e-CELSIUS® Performance Connect solution from BodyCap is a new, alternative option to the original e-Celsius Perfomance system. The e-Celsius Performance Connect utilises the same innovative core temperature capsules, but offers an alternative app-based data capture and storage solution, enabling the researcher to view and share data more easily during an activity. The system comprises 4 components:
An ingestible electronic capsule: The capsule is delivered individually packaged. Once activated, it communicates in real time, and continuously transmits the core temperature data. The single-use e-Celsius® Performance capsule is removed naturally, allowing it to monitor the core temperature over a period corresponding to the transit time (24-48 hours on average).
A gateway: The e-Perf Connect gateway is a wrist-worn device which is synched with the capsule to receive the data in real-time. This in turn connects to an Android device via Bluetooth.
An activator: An activation box takes the e-Celsius® capsule out of standby mode, activating it and allowing you to associate it with the e-Perf Connect gateway.
An Android app: The ePerf mobile app (available from the Google Play Store) can be set to pair with up to three gateway devices for simultaneous monitoring of up to three subjects. It allows you to change recording parameters (including time between samples), stores transmitted data, displays current temperatures and includes options to share data files during and after recording.
Key benefits
- No Data Loss
- No data loss even if the subject is out of the communication range for a while.
- Real Time & A Posteriori Data Recovery
- If ePerf Connect is in the communication range of the capsule, you can collect real time data. If not, ePerf Connect will synchronize the missing data as soon as the capsule and ePerf Connect are in the same communication range.
- Adaptable Monitoring
- During the monitoring, you have the possibility to change the measurement period when you want. In addition to the internal memory, the several sampling frequencies available, allows the system to fit with your protocol
- Time Saver
- Save time thanks to quick and easy implementation. Full data set available on site through an Android mobile App.
- Reliable Monitoring
- Accurate data (+/- 0.2°C.) with a resolution of 2 digits.
Applications
Clinical and basic research
The temperature variable is regularly part of the “Primary outcomes” in the context of a clinical trials. Continuous, reliable and accurate temperature monitoring allows to secure the protocols without adding any constraints for the subject and the operator.
Prevention of hyperthermia and hypothermia
Long duration exercises performed in hot environment induce potential rise in core temperature that could range from hyperthermia to heat stroke. The constraint is similar for people exercising in cold condition; hypothermia risks have to be anticipated.
Thermoregulation process efficiency evaluation
In the context of sports performance, thermoregulatory responses are very different among individuals. Objective measurement of the core temperature during exercise allows to individualize training processes. The e-Celsius® Performance Connect solution allows individualization of heat acclimatization protocols and better preparation for competitions in hot environments.
Sleep
Core temperature is a key indicator of the subjects’ biological rhythmicity. Continuous monitoring of this variable allows the characterization of the core temperature circadian rhythm, which is critical for sleep analysis and the sleep disorders diagnosis.
