Why do ear thermometers need ear themometer probe cover? In the household baby products such as ear thermometers, baby monitors, baby sleeping bags, etc., many parents are using them incorrectly, and they are not used in accordance with the method of use, so many functions are not used reasonably. Now let me tell you why you need ear themometer probe cover when using an ear thermometer. I hope it will be helpful to parents.
一、 There are two types of ear thermometers. One is the earmuff-free type. This type can directly use alcohol cotton to clean the probe, which can save the cost of purchasing the probe cover (commonly known as earmuffs) later. It is more suitable for family use or a single user; there is also a probe cover type (commonly known as earmuffs): as long as the probe part is cleaned during cleaning and disinfection, it is necessary to increase the cost of purchasing earmuffs later, which can prevent cross infection. It is very suitable for medical units, Families with high public health requirements. Whether or not to use earmuffs depends on which type of ear thermometer you are buying. If you are buying a probe sleeve type ear thermometer, you need to use earmuffs when using it. For 0-1 year olds That said, scientific measurement methods are particularly important. 3 year olds can use earmuff-free ear thermometers.
二、Second, the ear thermometer is a health care product. Of course, it is necessary to carry out DIY maintenance from time to time. You can use a soft cloth to wipe or a special cleaning agent for the plastic case. Do not use benzene solvent chemicals. The probe lens is the most sensitive part of the ear thermometer, please wipe it with a mild detergent or alcohol cotton. When the battery icon on the upper left of the ear thermometer LCD flashes blank, it means that the ear thermometer battery is dead, please replace it with a new battery. Generally it can be used for about 3-6 months. The specific battery life will vary depending on how many times you use it. The battery is a button battery, easy to buy, and the price is only a few yuan.
Other matters of ear thermometer use
1. The ear thermometer will be compared and compensated with the ambient temperature. The temperature measured in the normal ambient temperature range of 10 ℃ -40 ℃ (or 16 ℃ -40 ℃) is the same. However, the body temperature of the human body will change slightly with the environmental temperature in summer and winter. For example, after exercise or after taking a hot bath, the body temperature is usually relatively high.
2. When the ear thermometer goes from an air-conditioned room to a place without air conditioning, because it has not yet adapted to the sharp changes in ambient temperature, in this case, it is recommended that the user place the ear thermometer for about 20 minutes and let it adapt to the ambient temperature , So that you can get the correct temperature measurement.
3. The ear thermometer is not suitable for exposure to sunlight. Ultraviolet rays in the sun will damage the ear thermometer. It is recommended that users measure the ear thermometer as much as possible with the indoor environment.
4. Ear temperature is more accurate than mouth temperature. The infrared ear thermometer can accurately reflect the core temperature of the human body, and the human eardrum is near the hypothalamic body temperature regulation center, so the ear temperature measurement method can accurately reflect the core temperature of the human body. Therefore, measuring ear temperature is more accurate than mouth temperature.
5. When you use it for your baby, as long as you gently pull the baby's ear gently back (adult is upward), confirm that the ear canal is straightened, and let the ear thermometer probe measure the straight ear membrane. Parents should pay special attention when using it.
