Thank you for purchasing the Gentle Temp
™
Ear Thermometer. This remarkable
instrument offers safe, accurate, and quick temperature measurement from the
ear canal, specically the tympanic membrane (eardrum).
How Does It Work?
The Gentle Temp
™
Ear Thermometer detects the infrared heat given off by the
eardrum and surrounding tissues, in one second.
The Gentle Temp
™
is less threatening to a child than a rectal thermometer. It's
faster, safer and easier to use than an oral thermometer. There's no worry of
broken glass or mercury ingestion. Measurements can even be taken while a
child is sleeping. For adults, the Gentle Temp
™
Ear Thermometer offers fast
convenient, accurate readings without the wait of a conventional thermometer.
Temperature From The Ear?
Clinical research has shown that the ear is an ideal site for taking body
temperature. The eardrum shares blood vessels with the hypothalamus, the part
of the brain that controls body temperature. Therefore, the ear is an accurate
indicator of internal body (core) temperature. An ear temperature, unlike an oral
temperature, is unaffected by factors such as talking, drinking, and smoking.
Practice Makes Perfect
We recommend that you practice using the Gentle Temp
™
on yourself and
family members when you are healthy. This way you can improve your
technique and feel more condent of the measurements you take when a family
member is ill.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using your
Gentle Temp
™
Ear Thermometer. If you have questions about the
meaning of a specic temperature, please CONSULT YOUR
DOCTOR.
