Thermometers and Temperature Measurement
Thermometers for measuring body temperature to detect possible symptoms of fever in adults, children, or infants. Each thermometer has its own characteristics and specifications, but the development and innovation of its technology is common to all types, allowing for greater effectiveness, accuracy, and speed in measurement.
The body temperature of individuals, under normal (not extreme) environmental conditions, is usually between 35 and 376.5º C, so exceeding these values will indicate that there are symptoms of fever in the body.
It's important to take care of our health and ensure we don't have symptoms of contagious diseases, in order to detect the illness as early as possible and, in addition to facilitating treatment and cure, prevent contagion to others. Therefore, thermometers are of great importance in preventing the spread of the virus among the population. By simply monitoring your temperature, you can help and actively contribute to ending the serious consequences of promoting viral spread.
Types of Thermometers
At Farma2Go, you can find various types of thermometers, each with its own specific characteristics and uses, allowing users to purchase the thermometer that best suits their needs. Aside from thermometers designed for very specific and specific purposes (such as ear thermometers), there are three most common varieties:
-Glass and mercury thermometer: The classic, traditional thermometer. Currently, thanks to the development and refinement of measurement techniques and health sciences, it is recognized that mercury can pose certain health risks, making it contraindicated. Instead, glass thermometers containing other temperature-sensitive liquids, such as galinstan, have appeared, which can be used completely safely. This type of thermometer takes significantly longer than others to measure temperature, and reading it can be somewhat more cumbersome, potentially leading to slight inaccuracies. Even so, this rudimentary method remains effective and widely used.
-Digital thermometer: This type of thermometer features a display and a metal tip that records body temperature in a very short time, quickly transferring the measurement to the screen for a precise and accurate display of the recorded temperature. It is very hygienic, as it is easy to clean and disinfect, and its use is as simple as traditional thermometers.
Infrared thermometers: Infrared thermometers are capable of taking non-contact temperature readings using the rays emitted by the device, which reach the skin without harming the skin. Very practical and effective, their technological development allows for precise and rapid measurements. They are ideal for use with babies, comfortably measuring their forehead or ear without harming or frightening them.
Temperature Control
Infrared thermometers are especially useful for monitoring people's temperatures, especially in crowded public or private spaces. They can take measurements in just a few seconds and facilitate the rapid and urgent detection of cases that may be suffering from mild symptoms of viral diseases, which are often imperceptible but still contagious.
