Assessing Body Temperature - Tympanic membrane

1.3K
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...

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:

Summary

Measles cases significantly increased in early 2016, with Public Health England (PHE) reporting four times more infections compared to the previous year. This surge highlights a growing public health concern requiring attention.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Measles is a highly contagious viral illness.
  • Vaccination is key to measles prevention.
  • Surveillance data is crucial for tracking disease outbreaks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze trends in measles cases.
  • To report on recent infection rates.
  • To inform public health interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of Public Health England (PHE) surveillance data.
  • Comparison of measles case numbers between Q2 2016 and Q2 2015.
  • Reporting confirmed measles infections.

Main Results:

  • A fourfold increase in measles cases was observed in Q2 2016 compared to Q2 2015.
  • 167 new confirmed measles infections were recorded in Q2 2016.
  • This indicates a significant rise in measles incidence.
  • Conclusions:

    • The data suggests a concerning rise in measles transmission.
    • Public health strategies may need re-evaluation.
    • Increased vaccination efforts could be necessary to control outbreaks.
