Assessing Body Temperature - Rectal

3.1K
Rectal temperature measurement is considered the most precise method for assessing core body temperature and typically registers higher than oral temperature. For adults, the rectal thermometer should be inserted 1 to 1.5 inches into the rectum to obtain the most accurate reading.
Follow these steps for rectal temperature assessment:
Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and don clean gloves to prevent cross-infection.
Step 2: Position the patient in a side-lying position to better visualize the rectal...

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • Medical Education
  • Psychology

Background:

  • Healthcare professionals (HCPs) face significant mental and physical health challenges, impacting patient care quality.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified stress, depression, and burnout among HCPs.
  • Existing medical advancements often prioritize patient care over the well-being of healthcare providers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel tool for measuring the well-being of healthcare professionals in clinical settings.
  • To enhance "well-being intelligence" among HCPs, promoting self-awareness and self-management.
  • To provide insights for healthcare organizations to improve staff support policies.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional pilot study involving 148 physicians in the United Kingdom.
  • Utilized a newly developed "well-being thermometer" tool.
  • The tool assesses five domains: health, thoughts, emotions, spiritual, and social well-being.

Main Results:

  • The well-being thermometer demonstrated good internal consistency, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.84 for the total scale.
  • The study confirmed the tool's utility in gathering data on staff well-being.
  • Pilot results indicate the thermometer can effectively measure self-reported well-being.

Conclusions:

  • The well-being thermometer is a promising tool for assessing and understanding healthcare professional well-being.
  • It empowers HCPs to recognize and manage their well-being needs.
  • The tool can guide healthcare organizations in developing supportive policies and practices.
