The ear is regarded as the most reliable place to get a consistent reading of the human’s core body temperature. You should measure your child’s temperature regularly to understand their normal reading, so you can recognize signs of fever early.
How do Braun Ear Thermometers Work?
- Eardrum emits infrared radiation.
- Infrared radiation passes through the lens filter.
- Depending on the specifications (material, thickness, reduction process etc.) the lens filter lets pass a reduced amount of infrared radiation.
- The sensor of the device receives a reduced amount of infrared radiation.
- With a complex algorithm specially adjusted on the specifications Braun lens filters the Thermo Scan ear thermometer converts the infrared radiation into a temperature being shown on the display.
An infrared ear thermometer and the lens filter always work as a system. To get an accurate reading it is mandatory to align specifications of device and lens filter.
Advantages of a Pre-Warmed Tip:
With the pre-warmed tip:
Unlike other ear thermometers, Braun Thermo Scan ExacTemp features a prewarmed
tip. It minimizes the cooling effect that could result from the insertion of a
cool probe tip. The prewarmed tip helps ensure accuracy time after time.
Without the pre-warmed tip:
A conventional tip at room temperature has a cooling effect on the ear canal.
This cool-down effect can result in an inaccurate temperature reading shown on
the display. A cooler temperature in the ear canal could also affect the
accuracy of repeated measurements.
Each year, millions of temperatures are taken in doctors' offices and hospitals
with Braun Thermo Scan professional ear thermometers. 30 clinical studies with
over 4600 patients verify the accuracy and safety of Braun Thermo Scan ear
thermometers
What does the Guidance System Do?
Checks position of the thermometer in the ear and confirms the accuracy of the
measurement. Beep and light helps to eliminate handling errors. The probe of the
thermometer has to fit securely into the ear canal during the complete measuring
process before a long beep signals the end of the temperature reading.
A light provides additional accuracy. It flashes during the measuring process as
long as the probe is securely positioned and lights up continuously once an
accurate reading has been taken. If the probe has not been placed correctly in
the ear canal, it will be indicated by the Guidance System.
