3 methods used by the thermometer
1. The thermometer is an electronic product. It has requirements for the operating temperature. The operating temperature should be used within the range of room temperature 10-40 degrees. However, many places are generally used outdoors, and the epidemic is happening in winter, and the temperature is below 10 degrees. Even below zero, resulting in measurement error of the thermometer.
Solve the problem: Try to keep the measurement in a place with a suitable temperature. If possible, you can measure 3 times in a row and take the higher value.
2. The measurement site. The forehead should be 3-5 cm away from the measurement site. If the temperature of the forehead is low, the wrist and neck can be measured, which is closer to the real body temperature.
3. Some factors such as strenuous exercise, sweating, and drinking can cause high body temperature. Keep the body in a calm state and continue to measure it. If it is still high, it needs to be confirmed with other clinical methods.
Thermometers include infrared thermometers, ear thermometers, small electronic thermometers, mercury thermometers, etc. The accuracy makes the mercury thermometer used in the usual family measurement. If the body temperature is screened by the unit, it is necessary to use an infrared thermometer for preliminary screening, combined with a small electronic thermometer for further screening, which is more efficient.
