monothermal
A clinical procedure or state characterized by a single temperature, most commonly used in audiology to refer to a caloric test performed with either warm or cold irrigation alone. It is used as a screening tool to assess the balance system of the inner ear more quickly than standard two-temperature tests.
مثالها
3 از 5The patient underwent a monothermal to see if more extensive testing was required.
The patient had a single-temperature test to determine if further examination was necessary.
Current clinical guidelines suggest that a monothermal caloric test can effectively screen for vestibular weakness.
Modern medical rules indicate that a single-temperature heat test can identify balance issues in the ear.
I'll just run a monothermal first; it's faster and usually gives us the answer we need.
I will perform a one-temperature test initially because it is quicker and often provides the necessary results.

راهنمای حفظ
Remember 'mono-' means 'one' (like a monolog) and 'thermal' means 'heat.' It's a 'one-heat' test.

The sensitivity of the monothermal as a diagnostic tool remains a subject of debate among vestibular specialists.
academicExperts in balance disorders still argue about how accurate a single-temperature test is for making a diagnosis.
Our clinic has updated its protocol to include the monothermal as a standard preliminary screening step.
businessThe medical facility now uses the single-temperature test as a basic first step in their evaluation process.

اغلب اشتباه گرفته میشود با
Isothermal refers to a process where temperature remains constant over time, whereas monothermal refers to the use of a single temperature level for a specific test.
Bithermal involves two different temperatures (usually warm and cold), while monothermal uses only one.
نکات کاربردی
The word is almost exclusively used in medical and scientific contexts, particularly in audiology. While it often functions as an adjective, it is frequently used as a noun in clinical shorthand to refer to the test itself.
اشتباهات رایج
Learners might confuse it with 'isothermal' when describing weather or physical environments; keep 'monothermal' for specific diagnostic procedures or specialized thermal systems.

ریشه کلمه
Derived from the Greek 'monos' (single) and 'therme' (heat).
