Where is is the most accurate place on the body to take temp with digital thermometer?
The most accurate place to take temperature with a digital thermometer is typically orally (in the mouth). This method provides a close reflection of core body temperature. Alternatively, you can also take temperature rectally for infants and young children for accurate readings.
What else can I help you with?
Which thermometer would you use to measure the temperature of the body temperature of a patient?
A digital thermometer would be most suitable for measuring the body temperature of a patient. It provides an accurate reading quickly and is safe and easy to use.
Can you use laboratory thermometer to measure your body?
Yes, a laboratory thermometer can be used to measure body temperature. However, it may not be as convenient or accurate as a clinical thermometer that is specifically designed for measuring body temperature. It is important to ensure proper cleaning and sterilization of the laboratory thermometer before and after use on the body.
Why is a laboratory thermometer not used to measure the body temperature?
A thermometer used to measure body temperature is extremely accurate over an extremely small range of temperatures. It will give the temperature to the tenth of a degree. A laboratory thermometer does not have the partial degree separations but gives the temperature over a much wider range of temperatures.
Why is kink provided in a clinical thermometer?
The kink in a clinical thermometer prevents the column of mercury from falling back down when the thermometer is removed from the patient's body, allowing for an accurate temperature reading to be taken and read.

What is the difference between an oral thermometer and a rectal thermometer?
The tastes differ. An oral thermometer has a longer slender end that's inserted (into the mouth), compared to a rectal thermometer that has a short bulbous end inserted (into the rectum). The bulb reduces the chance of tearing the rectal wall, especially in infants. Some digital models have a setting for rectal vs. oral on the unit. The rectal temperature is known to be a little warmer and more accurate to body temperature. If you still have a glass and mercury thermometer, be aware that mercury is a deadly toxin, and consider replacing the thermometer with a digital model.
What types of thermometer are there?
Digital thermometers are the most accurate way to take body temperature. There are many types, including oral, rectal, and forehead, plus many that are multifunctional. Once you decide on the type of thermometer you want, you can think about design, extra features, and price.
