ABSTRACT:
An electronic clinical thermometer successively stores the temperature detected at a portion of a body, measures the time which has elapsed since start of measurement, and reads the detected temperature, corresponding to a prescribed length of past time, out of a storage to obtain a mean value during the length of past time. The thermometer repeats, at a predetermined period, a process of obtaining and displaying a predicted value of a stable temperature from the mean detected temperature and elapsed measurement time on the basis of a stable temperature prediction function in which measurement time is a variable, the temperature prediction function defining a temperature change up to a final, stable temperature. The prediction computation is halted when, after the elapsed measurement time has exceeded a prescribed magnitude and a difference exhibited by the mean detected temperature corresponding to two points in time no longer shows an increase outside a prescribed range, the detected mean temperature corresponding to a present point in time exhibits a decrease outside a prescribed range in being compared with the mean detected temperature at the preceding point in time.
