Beurer-Tip:
Temperatures measured with different thermometers cannot be compared with one another.
You should therefore tell your doctor or bear in mind if you are diagnosing yourself what thermometer you used to take
your temperature and in what part of the body.
The temperature of a healthy person is also influenced by the following factors:
• The person's individual metabolism.
• Age (body temperature is higher in babies and small children and falls with increasing age. Greater temperature fluctua-
tions occur faster and more often in children).
• Clothing.
• The outside temperature.
• The time of day (body temperature is lower in the morning and increases during the day towards evening).
• Preceding physical and, to a lesser extent, mental activity.
Beurer-Tip:
Taking the temperature gives a measurement that provides information about a person's current body temperature. If
you are uncertain about interpreting the results or if the result is abnormal (e.g. fever), you should consult your doctor.
This also applies in the case of slight temperature changes if there are other symptoms of illness such as agitation,
severe sweating, flushed skin, fast pulse rate, tendency to collapse etc.
