With new tool developed by Yellow Spring Instrument Co., it is possible to determine more accurately the physiological effects of strenuous exercise, particularly on the treadmill. Ames developed thermistor holder is a plastic ring with tab extensions on the chest, arm and leg of the patient undergoing examination. Ring holds sensing head of temperature probe and provides firm, constant pressure between the skin and probe. Tabs help stabilize the ring and provide attachment points for the fastening tape or bands which do not directly touch the sensor.

Abstract
With new tool developed by Yellow Spring Instrument Co., it is possible to determine more accurately the physiological effects of strenuous exercise, particularly on the treadmill. Ames developed thermistor holder is a plastic ring with tab extensions on the chest, arm and leg of the patient undergoing examination. Ring holds sensing head of temperature probe and provides firm, constant pressure between the skin and probe. Tabs help stabilize the ring and provide attachment points for the fastening tape or bands which do not directly touch the sensor.
