ABSTRACT:
An electronic clinical thermometer which computes a predicted body temperature value from a series of temperature data generated during a given time period, displays the predicted value for a given time in the course of body temperature measurement and, then, has the predicted value display superceded by a measured temperature display. This clinical thermometer comprises an alerting means for alerting the user at displaying of said predicted value to the fact that the value to be displayed is a predicted body temperature value, a time for terminating the predicted value display long before measured temperature values reach a steady state, and a display shift means which compares the measured value at determination of the predicted value with the measured value at completion of the predicted value display and supercedes the predicted value display with a measured value display on condition that the measured value at completion of the predicted value display is at least equal to the measured value at determination of the predicted value.
