Why measure in the ear?
The goal of thermometry is to measure core body temperature which is thetemperature of the vital organs. The ear is an excellent site to measuretemperature. Ear temperatures accurately reflect core body temperature, sincethe eardrum shares blood supply with the temperature control center in thebrain, the hypothalamus. Therefore changes in body temperature are accuratelyreflected sooner and more accurately in the ear than at other sites.
Braun Thermoscan measures the infrared heat generated by the eardrum and thesurrounding tissues. It is more accurate than measuring rectal or templetemperature. The eardrum shares blood supply with the temperature control centerin the brain. Therefore temperature changes are reflected more accurately thanat other sites.
Braun ThermoScan Ear Thermometer ExacTemp IRT 6030 features a pre-warmed tipthat minimizes the cooling effect that could result from the introduction of acool probe tip. The pre-warmed tip helps ensure accuracy measurement aftermeasurement.
