摘要

Introduction: Accurate temperature measurement is important to person, in whom suspicionof infection could result in investigations, administration of antibiotics, and even hospitaladmission. This study was done with the aim to determine the optimal dwell time of thethermometer in oral and axillary sites required to accurately reflect the stabilized core bodytemperature.Method: Cross-sectional survey of 113 adult patients was done who were admitted inManmohan Cardio- Thoracic Vascular and Transplant Center (MCTVC) in the periodbetween 16th July to August 2013. Ethical approval from the Institutional Review Board(IRB) of TUIOM and permission from the respective hospital authority was taken beforedata collection. Conventional glass mercury thermometer were checked and brought to95 degree of Fahrenheit before each measurement of the temperature. Two thermometerswere simultaneously placed in oral cavity and in the axillary skin sites. Reading of the oraltemperature was done in 1 and 3 minutes, similarly, reading of axillary temperature was donein 3 and 5 minutes. Data was analyzed in SPSS 18 by using parametric and nonparametrictests.Results: Findings revealed the mean temperature difference between 1 minute oral to 3minute axilla was 0.92 ± 0.79 SD, and the 3 minute oral to 5 minute axilla was 0.96 ± 0.82SD, the difference was significant (P<0.05). Further, the mean oral temperature in 1 minutewas 97.75 ± 1.27 SD, and in 3 minutes was 98.69 ± 1.37 SD. Similarly, mean temperature ofaxilla in 3 minutes was 97.67± 1.40 SD, whereas mean in 5 minutes was 98.43 ± 1.46 SD.The mean difference was significant.Conclusion: The effective time to measure oral temperature was three minute and it was fiveminutes for axillary measurement.
