“…There is widespread literature simultaneously comparing different IR temperature measurement devices and measurement sites at ambient temperatures ( Bijur et al, 2016 ; Fletcher et al, 2018 ; Kiekkas et al, 2016 ; Weng Seng Fong et al, 2020 ). Environmental conditions, including combinations of air temperature, radiant temperature, humidity, and air velocity, can influence IRT and NCIT devices measurements ( Foster et al, 2021 ; Khaksari et al, 2021 ). For instance, in a study involving three environmental temperatures (15.5, 21.1 and 26.6 º C) and two humidity conditions (35 and 75%), the variance of each measurement site (rectal, esophageal, tympanic and oral) was found to decrease as the environmental temperature increased ( Pascoe & Fisher, 2009 ).…”
