Welch Allyn temperature: Description
Description
You can measure oral, axillary or rectal temperatures with the Welch Allyn
SureTemp
SureTemp
®
Plus temperature parameter option. This parameter draws data
from an electronic thermometer with a temperature-sensing device known as a
thermistor at the tip of the probe. When the tip of the probe is brought in contact
with surrounding tissue, the electrical resistance is measured, the algorithm
calculates and displays the patient's temperature. The probe requires a probe
cover and should never be used without one.
