4. EMPORAL ARTERY TA TEMPERATUERE Infrared arterial temperature can be measured using a device placed on the forehead in the Temporal artery region It has been demonstrated that this relatively new method of measuring temperature is more precise than tympanic thermometry and better tolerated than rectal thermometry The SantaMedical RY210 thermometer has been designed to produce an instant forehead temperature reading without any contact with the temporal artery As artery is quite close to the surface of this skin and therefore accessible and given the blood flow is permanent and regular it allows precise measurement of the temperature This artery is linked to the heart by the carotid artery which is directly linked to the aorta It forms part of the main trunk of the arterial system The efficiency speed and comfort of taking a temperature from this area make it ideal compared with other temperature measurements methods NORMAL TEMPERATURES ACCORDING TO AGE Age ce E 0 2 years 36 4 38 0 97 5 100 4 3 10 years 36 1 7 8 97 0 100 0 11 65 years 35 9 37 6 96 6 99 7 gt 65 years 35 8 37 5 96 4 99 5 PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS WHEN TAKING A TEMPERATURE In order to ensure that precise and accurate temperature measurements are obtained it is essential that each user has received adequate information on and training in the temperature measurement technique when using such a device It is essential to remember that although procedures such a
