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.

Conditions

• Haematological Malignancy

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Enteric capsule	Enteric capsule to measure body temperature will be ingested every 24 hours during aplasia. the temperature measured with this technique will be compared with auricular temperature measurement (in current practice nurse measure temperature every 4 hours during aplasia).
