What else can I help you with?
Mention any two points of difference between a clinical thermometer and an ordinary mercury thermometer?
A clinical thermometer will offer more precise calibrated readings than a mercury thermometer. The range of measurable temperature differs between a clinical and a mercury thermometer with the mercury thermometer having the wider range.
What is the clinical thermometer response time?
three minutes
Can you use a laboratory thermometer for clinical purposes?
no please there's mercury which will just poison you
Clinical thermometer is which order system?
first order system
Why is lab thermometer can't be used as clinical and vice - varsa?
A clinical thermometer typically shows a maximum reading while a lab thermometer typically shows the temperature right now. When you take a thermometer out of a patients mouth (or other place that you are measuring the temperature) you most often want the maximum temperature to keep showing until you reset the instrument. When using a lab oratory thermometer you want the instrument to react as quickly as possible so that changes (up and down) can be noticed and recorded.
What is the most used thermometer?
Clinical Thermometer
What are the two main types of thermometer used today?
clinical thermometer and lab thermometer
Who element used of the glass tube of clinical thermometer to measure thermometer?
mercury
What is the mercury called on a clinical thermometer?
The liquid in a clinical thermometer is called mercury. It is used to measure body temperature by expanding and rising within the thermometer.
What is the differences between a clinical thermometer and a laboratory thermometer?
Clinical thermometers are made to be used in a hospital to accurately determine body temperature. They are often digital. Lab thermometers are made of metal or glass and usually don't give you an accurate reading as much as a "ball park." A clinical thermometer may have mercury but lab thermometers usually have alcohol .
Why is a clinical thermometer usually shaken before use?
the thermometer is shaken before it is used because it is
What instrument measures body temperature?
A thermometer is used to meusure your body temperature either it can be clinical thermometer or digital thermometer.
What is the difference between clinical thermometer and laboratory thermometer?
Laboratory thermometers can measure wide variety of temperature, whereas a clinical thermometer has a range between 95 to 105 Fahrenheit. Clinical thermometers are made to be used in a hospital to accurately determinebody temperature. They are often digital. Lab thermometers are made of metal or glass and usually don't give you an accurate reading as much as a "ball park". Clinical thermometer may have mercury but lab thermometers usually have alcohol .
What are clinical thermometre?
A thermometer which is used to measure the body temperature
Difference between laboratory and clinical thermometer?
A laboratory thermometer is used to measure temperature with high precision in controlled environments, such as in research labs. Clinical thermometers are designed to measure body temperature for medical purposes, typically with less precision but greater convenience for home use.
What is the difference of a clinical thermometer and a laboratory thermometer?
I'm glad you asked me about the difference between a clinical thermometer and a laboratory thermometer. They are both used to measure temperature, but they have some key differences. Here are the main differences between clinical and laboratory thermometers: Temperature range: Clinical thermometers are designed to measure human body temperature, which is typically between 35°C and 42°C. Laboratory thermometers, on the other hand, can measure a wider range of temperatures, from -10°C to 110°C. Least count: The least count is the smallest change in temperature that the thermometer can detect. Clinical thermometers typically have a least count of 0.1°C, while laboratory thermometers can have a least count of 0.01°C or even smaller. Construction: Clinical thermometers are typically made of glass, while laboratory thermometers can be made of glass or metal. Usage: Clinical thermometers are meant to be used by people to measure their own body temperature or the temperature of another person. Laboratory thermometers are used by scientists and technicians to measure the temperature of objects or substances in a laboratory setting. Here's a fictional anecdote from my personal experience: When I was in medical school, I was working in the emergency room one night when a patient came in with a fever. I took her temperature with a clinical thermometer and it was 40°C. I knew that this was a dangerously high fever, so I immediately started her on antibiotics. The next day, her fever had gone down and she was feeling much better. This experience taught me the importance of using the right thermometer for the job. If I had used a laboratory thermometer, I might not have been able to detect the patient's fever as quickly, and she might have gotten worse. I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Which element is used in the glass tube of clinical thermometer to measure tepperature?
MERCURY
