BRAUN THERMOSCAN LF 20 USER MANUAL SKIN

You can be assured to have taken anДЄccurate temperature reading. If the probe has been fitted securely into the ear canal during the complete measuring process, a long beep will signal the end of the measuring process. Note: When consulting your physician, communicate that the ThermoScan temperature is a temperature measured in the ear and if possible, note the individualвЂ™s normal ThermoScan temperature range as additional reference. Practice taking temperatures on yourself and healthy family members to determine their normal temperature ranges. This is easily done using Braun ThermoScan. It is therefore important to determine your normal temperature range. However, the range of normal also varies from person to person and fluctuates throughout the day. The following table shows normal ThermoScan ranges by age.

As well, a personвЂ™s normal temperature range tends to decrease with age.

Therefore, readings from different sites should not be directly compared. The following table shows that this normal range also varies by site. Rectal temperatures lag behind changes in core body temperature and there is a risk of cross-contamination.Oral temperatures are influenced by drinking, eating and breathing.

Axillary temperatures only measure skin temperature and therefore, are not a reliable indicator of core body temperature.Therefore, changes in body temperature are reflected sooner and more accurately in the ear than at other sites. Ear temperatures accurately reflect core body temperature, since the eardrum shares blood supply with the temperature control center in the brain, the hypothalamus. The goal of thermometry is to measure core body temperature which is the temperature of the vital organs. The measurement will be finished and the result is displayed, when an accurate reading can be assured. When the Braun ThermoScan is placed in the ear, it continuously monitors the infrared radiation. To avoid gross temperature differences, the sensor itself is brought to a temperature close to that of the human body. Use of this thermometer is not intended as a substitute for consultation with your physician.Д«raun ThermoScan measures the infrared heat generated by the eardrum and surrounding tissues.This thermometer is intended for household use only.Keep lens filters out of reach of children.Never use this thermometer without a new, clean lens filter attached. This thermometer must only be used with genuine Braun ThermoScan Lens Filters (LF 40).Do not expose the thermometer to temperature extremes.The operating ambient temperature range for this thermometer is 10вЂ“40 вЊ (50вЂ“104 вЏ).However, as with any thermometer, proper technique is critical to The shape of the thermometer prevents it from being inserted too far The Braun ThermoScan thermometer has been carefully developedДЇor accurate, safe and fast temperature measurements in the ear.
