Which temperature site is generally considered to be the most accurate?

The rectal or vaginal temperature is generally considered to give the most accurate assessment of core body temperature particularly in hypothermia. In the early 2000s …

Temperature scales differ in two ways: the point chosen as zero degrees and the magnitudes of incremental units or degrees on the scale. The Celsiusscale (°C) is used for common temperature measurements in most of the world. It is an empirical scale that was developed by historical progress which led to its zero points 0 °C being defined by the freezing point of water and additional degrees defined so that 100 °C was the boiling point of wa…

A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or a temperature gradient (the degree of hotness or coldness of an object). A thermometer has two important elements: (1) a temperature sensor (e.g. the bulb of a mercury-in-glass thermometer or the pyrometric sensor in an infrared thermometer) in which some cha…
