What you need to know about using the Inventum
forehead thermometer
Before using a forehead thermometer the following should be noted:
• This thermometer is suitable for measuring the temperature of the
body only on the forehead.
The physiological temperature ranges are:
- the forehead temperature, measured with a forehead
thermometer: 35.8 to 37.6°C
Tip: Temperatures measured with different thermometers cannot be
compared with one another. Tell your doctor or take into account
when diagnosing yourself what thermometer you used in what part of
the body to measure the temperature.
• The temperature of a healthy person is also affected by the
following factors:
- The person's individual level (individual metabolism)
- Age (body temperature is higher in babies and small children and
falls with increasing age. Greater temperature fluctuations occur in
children faster and more often.)
- Clothing
- The outside temperature
- The time of day (Body temperature is lower in the morning and
rises as the day goes on.)
