Abstract
To the Editor: I am writing in response to an article recently published in Anesthesia & Analgesia(1). In this article temporal artery skin temperature, measured with the new and noninvasive infrared scanner SensorTouch, is compared to temperatures monitored at the pulmonary artery site in adults and bladder site in children. It is with considerable disappointment that I note a journal of the caliber of Anesthesia & Analgesia reporting on instrument testing when the accuracy (in vitro testing) of the reference instruments, in this case pulmonary artery and bladder catheters, is not reported. Although these instruments cannot be tested before insertion, they can be tested following removal from patients. Unfortunately the only reference made to the accuracy of these catheters to which the SensorTouch was compared is in a brief statement in the Methods section where the investigators report “The accuracy of these devices is ≈0.2°C.” Although the original research question posed in this study is important to clinical practice, I question if there is any point in reading the information past the above noted statement. Unless one knows the error of the reference instruments and makes the necessary corrections to the data for this inaccuracy, it is impossible to deduce the true accuracy of the test instrument. The science of temperature measurement has moved past the stage where sole reliance is placed upon the manufacturer’s reported accuracy. Researchers and journal reviewers need to routinely question results of studies where this information is not provided by the investigators if improved techniques are to be developed and new technology is to be fairly evaluated.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
