The difference between disposable Skin-surface temperature probes and Esophageal /Rectal temperature probes

MED-LINKET CORP | Updated: Sep 08, 2021

Body temperature is one of the most direct responses to human health. From ancient times to the present, we can intuitively judge a person's physical health. When the patient is undergoing anesthesia surgery or the postoperative recovery period and needs accurate body temperature monitoring data, the medical staff will choose this disposable Skin-surface temperature probes or disposable Esophageal /Rectal temperature probes to measure the patient’s forehead and armpit (skin and body surface) respectively , Or the temperature of the Esophageal /Rectal (in the body cavity). Today I will take you to analyze the difference between these two temperature probes measurement.

How to measure it?

Disposable Skin-surface temperature probes

When you need to know the temperature of the patient's armpit, you only need to place the disposable skin-surface temperature probe in front of the patient's forehead or in the armpit and clamp it with your arm. After waiting for 3-7 minutes, stable patient temperature real-time data can be obtained. But it should be noted that the axillary temperature is greatly affected by the external environm

Specific steps are as follows:

Disposable Esophageal /Rectal temperature probes

When you need to know the patient's body temperature more accurately, the temperature of the body cavity, that is, the temperature of the Esophageal /Rectal will be closer to the core body temperature of the human body.

Medical staff need to lubricate the disposable Esophageal /Rectal temperature probe first, and then choose to insert it into the Rectal, Esophageal to monitor the body temperature according to the patient's current situation. After about 3-7 minutes,you can see stable patient temperature data on the monitor.

Specific steps are as follows:

Everyone knows that in most cases, the temperature of the Esophageal /Rectal can represent the core temperature of the body. In addition, the disposable skin-surface temperature probe can only be used on the patient's skin surface, such as the forehead and armpits. Although the rectal temperature is more accurate than the armpit temperature, in some cases patients are not allowed to use invasive temperature measurement tools to monitor the patient's body temperature.

The following are Medlinket two main disposable skin-surface temperature probes and Esophageal /Rectal temperature probes, actively integrating and innovating, designing two temperature probes that meet market needs, using insulating materials to protect the patient from the risk of electric shock; It is safe and reliable to use, and effectively prevents cross-infection.

Disposable Skin-surface temperature probes

Product advantages:

1. It can be used with neonatal incubator.

2. Anti-interference design of temperature probe

The probe is embedded in the center of the foam. The reflective film and foam on the back of the product can prevent

The interference of the external heat source during temperature measurement to improve the temperature accuracy of the probe during temperature measurement.

3. The sticky foam is comfortable and non-irritating

The foam is sticky, can fix the temperature measurement position, it is comfortable and non-irritating to the skin, especially it is not harmful to the skin of babies and children.

Accurate and rapid provision of continuous body temperature data: The safe and reliable connector design prevents liquid from flowing into the connection, which is conducive to medical staff to observe and record and make accurate judgments on patients

Disposable Esophageal /Rectal temperature probes:

Product advantages

1. The sleek and smooth top design makes insertion and removal smoother.

2. There is a scale value every 5cm, and the mark is clear, which is easy to identify the insertion depth.

3. Medical PVC casing, available in white and blue, with smooth and waterproof surface, easier to put into the body after being wet.

4. Accurate and rapid provision of continuous body temperature data: The fully enclosed design of the probe prevents liquid from flowing into the connection, ensuring accurate readings, and is conducive to medical staff to observe and record and make accurate judgments on patients.
