SYMBOL INFORMATION

DETAILED INFORMATION

About Normal Body Temperature & Fever

The temperature in the forehead and temple area differs from the 

internal temperature, which is taken orally or rectally. Vasoconstriction, 

an effect which constricts the blood vessels and cools the skin, can

occur during the early stages of a fever. In this case, the temperature 

measured by the Biocare Forehead Thermometer may be unusually low. 

If the measurement therefore does not match the patient’s own 

perception or is unusually low, repeat the measurement every 15 

minutes. As a reference, you can also measure the internal body 

temperature using a conventional oral or rectal thermometer.

Body temperature can vary from one individual/person to next. It also 

varies by location on the body and time of day. Below shows the 

statistical normal ranges from different sites. Please keep in mind that 

temperatures measured from different sites, even at the same time, 

should not be directly compared. Fever indicates that the body 

temperature is higher than normal. This symptom may be caused by 

infection, overdressing or immunization. Some people may not 

experience fever even when they are ill. These include, but are not

limited to, infants younger than 3 months old, persons with compro-

mised immune systems, persons taking antibiotics, steroids or 

antipyretics (aspirin, ibuprofen, acetaminophen), or persons with 

certain chronic illnesses. Please consult your physician when you feel ill

even if you do not have fever.
