Fever may be blunted or even absent in elderly patients.
It is important to know each individual's normal temperature when they are well.
This is the only way to accurately diagnose a fever. Take multiple readings when
healthy to determine normal temperature.

Why use the Braun Forehead thermometer?
Measurement in under 3 seconds
The innovative infrared technology allows measurement of
forehead temperature in under 3 seconds.
Accurate and reliable
Due to advanced technology, the Forehead thermometer
captures the heat naturally given off by the forehead to calculate
oral equivalent temperature.
Easy to use
The Forehead thermometer is non-invasive. A measurement
can be taken even while a child is sleeping.
Design is easy to hold and use.
The Forehead thermometer is less threatening to a child than a
rectal thermometer and easier to use than other methods.

Completely safe for use on children and adults.
Auto-Display memory
The last reading is automatically displayed for 2 seconds when the unit is
switched ON.
How the Braun Forehead thermometer works
The Forehead thermometer measures infrared energy radiated from the skin
above the eyebrow area and the surrounding tissue. Temperature readings
obtained by scanning the temple area will provide the greatest accuracy.
The Forehead thermometer has been clinically tested and proven to be safe and
accurate when used in accordance with its operating instruction manual.
Normal temperature is a range. The range of normal also varies from person to
person and fluctuates throughout the day. It is therefore important to determine
your normal temperature range. A person's normal temperature range tends to
decrease with age.
