Brief Title: Concordance Between 2 Means of Temperature Measure in Neutropenic Patients Hospitalized in Intensive Hematology Care Units
Official Title: Concordance Between Body Temperature Measured Per Enteric Capsule and Auricular Temperature in Neutropenic Patients Hospitalized in Intensive Hematology Care Units
Study ID: NCT04174053
Brief Summary: Connected medicine "2.0" is a major challenge that will lead in the near future to profound changes in medical practices. Our study is part of this technological transformation, which is already taking the form of multiple devices available to practitioners: connected pill dispensers, integrated monitoring and surveillance systems (telemedicine), connected sensors, etc. However, a symptom as crucial and simple as body temperature has not been measured by real-time enteric capsule in a context of neutropenia. We therefore wish to study the concordance between the peripheral (tympanic) temperature and that measured by a capsule ingested in a cohort of patients hospitalized in the USIH. If the measurements are clinically reliable and truly allow anticipation of antimicrobial treatments, a medico-economic evaluation will be proposed between the two options in the context of USIH before its possible generalization.
