<p>An electronic clinical thermometer comprises a first sensor housing portion including at least one temperature sensor adapted to produce an output signal indicative of temperature, a second display housing portion including a visual display, and a third connecting link portion which connects the first portion to the second portion in a spaced arrangement to define a space between the first portion and second portion into which a part of a users hand can be inserted, and an electronic circuit located at least partially within the first, second and/or third portions which receives the output signal from the or each sensor and processes the received output signal to produce a display drive signal which causes an indication of the measured temperature to be produced on the display. This makes it simple to hold the thermometer whilst taking measurements.</p> |
