How To Measure Body Temperature For Your Child?

For children to measure body temperature, according to the location of the collection temperature, there are five methods: including measuring temperature, ear temperature, forehead temperature, mouth temperature and rectal temperature.

There are at least three measuring tools: a mercury thermometer, an electronic thermometer, and an infrared thermometer. With so many options, I can't help but think of the fear of being dominated by various connection questions while reading. Although the most accurate way to measure the core temperature is to measure the anus temperature, measuring the anus temperature is troublesome and can cause discomfort to the child. The child crying and twisting can easily cause the thermometer to invade the injury. Therefore, it is not recommended for routine use in the home, generally only in the hospital. Medical staff operations. It is unhealthy and unsafe to measure the temperature of your baby. Especially if you use mercury (the content is mercury) thermometer, accidental rupture can also cause mercury poisoning, so this method is not recommended. As for the temperature of the forehead, since the surface temperature of the forehead is greatly affected by the external environment, the accuracy is not very high, and it is usually used only in the general survey of the human body temperature in the public place and the initial screening. Therefore, the way for families to measure their body temperature is to detect phlegm and ear temperature! Measuring temperature is the most widely used method for measuring body temperature. You can use a traditional mercury thermometer or an electronic thermometer. Compared with mercury thermometers, electronic thermometers are convenient and accurate. There are also soft-head electronic thermometers for small babies. Soft temperature probes are safer. Measuring ear temperature is the most convenient and convenient way to monitor daily body temperature. It needs to use a special infrared ear thermometer, although the price is more expensive than the electronic thermometer (more expensive than the mercury thermometer), but for infants, Measuring the ear temperature takes into account the factors of fastness, accuracy, safety, etc., especially for those children who are active, easy to cry, and who are not willing to quiet down, only need to close the ear canal skin and press the detection button, the body temperature can be quickly displayed. It is simply a life-saving straw for the "bear children" parents. However, it should be noted that it is best to collect the ear temperature after multiple measurements (at least 3 times) and then take the average value, which can improve the accuracy of the measurement.

Precautions when measuring your body temperature:

◆ Before measuring body temperature, do not let the child cry and vigorously move, so as not to affect the measurement results.

◆ Wipe and disinfect with alcohol before using the thermometer. Rinse with water or soapy water after use, and dry it for later use.

◆ When measuring temperature, freely move the thermometer, do not clamp the thermometer, or the child's fat is too thick, it will affect the accuracy of the measurement.

◆ When the ear temperature is measured, the baby has ear disease or excessive secretion of the external auditory canal, which will affect the measurement accuracy.

◆ Before using the mercury thermometer to measure the body temperature, restore the display to below 35 °C. If the mercury thermometer is accidentally broken and eaten, immediately feed a large amount of milk and send it to the hospital. The protein in the milk will combine with mercury (mercury) to delay the absorption of mercury.
