    Equipments Used to Measure Body Temperature

    Body temperature can be assessed using various devices and measured in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
    Glass-bulb Thermometer:
    Glass-bulb thermometers are hollow glass tubes with a bulb tip containing liquid such as ethanol or mercury. Historically, glass bulb mercury thermometers were the standard device to measure body temperature. Today, mercury thermometers are prohibited in many countries due to the hazardous effects of mercury and the risk of exposure if the glass bulb breaks. In general,...
    Temperature Measurement Sites01:14

    Temperature Measurement Sites

    A thermometer measures body temperature. The common sites for measuring body temperature are the oral cavity, axillary region, temporal artery, and skin surface, such as the forehead, abdomen, and axilla. True core body temperature is assessed in the rectum, tympanic membrane, pulmonary artery, esophagus, and urinary bladder.
    Oral: When assessing oral temperature, the thermometer tip should be placed under the tongue in the posterior sublingual pocket. It offers accurate readings and can be...
    Assessing Body Temperature - Tympanic membrane01:14

    Assessing Body Temperature - Tympanic membrane

    Assessing tympanic membrane temperature involves using a tympanic membrane thermometer (TMT). Here is a step-by-step guide:
    Step 1: Begin by practicing good hand hygiene to prevent the transmission of microorganisms.
    Step 2: Turn on the thermometer and wait until the ready sign appears on the screen to ensure accurate measurement.
    Step 3: Slide the probe cover in place to prevent cross-contamination.
    Step 4: Instruct the patient to tilt their head to the side for comfort and check for cerumen...

    Assessing Body Temperature - Oral

    Here are the steps to accurately measure oral temperature using an electronic thermometer:
    Step 1:
    Start by practicing proper hand hygiene to prevent the spread of microorganisms.
    Step 2:
    Take the thermometer out of the charging unit, switch it on, and wait for the ready sign.
    Step 3:
    Gently slide the probe cover until a click is heard. This simple action prevents cross-contamination and ensures the correct placement of the probe cover.
    Step 4:
    Instruct the patient to open their mouth and place...
    Assessing Body Temperature - Axilla01:14

    Assessing Body Temperature - Axilla

    Procedural Guide for Assessing Axillary Body Temperature using a Digital Thermometer:
    Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and put on clean gloves to maintain infection control and prevent cross-contamination.
    Step 2: Prepare the patient by explaining the procedure to ensure understanding and cooperation. Ensure privacy, expose the axilla, and inform the patient that minimal movement is crucial for an accurate reading.
    Step 3: Adjust the patient’s clothing to expose only the axilla. It minimizes...
    Assessing Body Temperature - Temporal Artery01:19

    Assessing Body Temperature - Temporal Artery

    Here is a stepwise guide to assessing the body temperature at the temporal artery using a temporal artery thermometer
    Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and don a fresh pair of gloves to prevent cross-infection and ensure patient safety.
    Step 2: Explain the procedure to the patient to establish trust. Clear communication establishes trust with the patient, ensures they understand what to expect, promotes cooperation, and enhances comfort during the procedure.  
    Step 3: Assess the patient's forehead...
