RELIABLE METHODS TO MEASURE TEMPERATURE

ORAL USE (approx. 10-20 seconds)

Place the probe tip well under the ton

ue. The mouth should remain closed durin

measurement to

ensure an accurate temperature reading. Do not bend or bite the probe while it is in the mouth. A normal

temperature by this method is 98.6ºF (37ºC).

Wipe the armpit with a dry towel. Place the probe tip under the armpit and keep the arm firmly pressed

against the body during measurement to ensure an accurate temperature reading. A normal temperature

by this method is 97.6ºF (36.7ºC).

RECTAL USE (approx. 10-15 seconds)

If your doctor recommends a rectal temperature, place a probe cover over the tip of the thermometer and

lubricate the probe with a water-soluble jelly for easier insertion. Do not use petroleum jelly. Gently insert

the tip of the probe NO MORE than 1/2 inch into the rectum. STOP if you meet any resistance. Hold the

thermometer in place durin

measurement to ensure an accurate temperature readin

. A normal

temperature by this method is 99.6ºF (37.6ºC).

REMEMBER: Temperature readings vary from person to person and thermometer to thermometer. Find

your normal temperature and watch for changes. If you compare readings between two thermometers, it is

possible to have two different readings even if both thermometers are within their accuracy ranges.
