Helpful Hints
•
For infants, it is best to position infant flat with the ear facing upwards.
•
For children and adults, it is best to stand behind and slightly to the side.
•
Always take measurements in the same ear since temperature readings may
differ from ear to ear.
•
Readings taken while a child is sleeping should not be compared to readings
taken while awake.
•
It is recommended to take three readings in the same ear with the highest
interpreted as the reading for:
– newborn infants in the first 100 days,
– children under three years of age with comprised immune systems or with
conditions where the absence of fever is critical,
– a new user of an Instant Ear Thermometer until proper technique is
established.
