Basic Temperature

The Basic Temperature Category addresses features specific to devices, apps and infrastructure that performs basic body temperature measurements. Such devices must be able to measure in either degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit, and may be able to be dynamically configured for either measurement system.

Feature: Tempurature Measurement

The system SHALL be able to capture and report a tempurature measurement from the user.

Scenario: Capture And Report Tempurature Measurement

GIVEN

a <System> (App or Infrastructure) that can work with a <Device>

AND

a <User> of that <System>

AND

the <Tempurature> of that <User>

WHEN

the <System> is operational

THEN

the device can capture a <Measurement> in the <System> associated with <User> that contains that user’s <Tempurature>

AND

that <Measurement> has units that are degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit

AND

the precision of that <Measurement> is to the unit of at least whole unit.

Scenario: LOINC Coded Temperature Measurement

The system should provide LOINC codes along with measurements.

GIVEN

a <Measurement> of temperature

WHEN

the <Measurement> is retrieved

THEN

that <Measurement> is associated with a <LOINC Code> for Temperature

AND

that <LOINC Code> is 8310-5 Body temperature

Scenario: UCUM Coded Temperature Units

The measurement should use units coded in UCUM.

GIVEN

a <Measurement> of temperature

WHEN

the <Measurement> is retrieved

THEN

that <Measurement> is associated with a <UCUM Unit Code>,

AND

that <UCUM Unit Code> is ‘Cel’ or ‘[degF]’
