Hand-held medical-data capture-device having a digital infrared sensor with no analog sensor readout ports and interoperation with electronic medical record systems through a static IP address
In one implementation, an apparatus estimates body core temperature from an infrared measurement of an external source point using a cubic relationship between the body core temperature and the measurement of an external source point is described, estimates temperature from a digital infrared sensor and determines vital signs from a solid-state image transducer, or determines vital signs from a solid-state image transducer and estimates body core temperature from an infrared measurement of an external source point using a cubic relationship between the body core temperature and the measurement of an external source point； after which the estimated and/or determined information is transmitted to an external database.
