Forehead Vs Ear Measurements

A forehead measurement is considered more accurate. An ear temperature will usually be 0.5 degree higher than a forehead temperature, and can be affected by earwax. Ensure the probe/surface is clean.

Forehead No-Touch Temperature: 

• Scans the temporal artery in centre of forehead.

• Age: any age over 3 months

• Stay 1- 2 cm away. Do not touch the forehead.

• Do not move the thermometer during use.

• Ensure skin is clean and free of perspiration.

Ear Temperature: 

• Age: 6 months and older 

• Reads the heat waves coming off the eardrum.

• A correct temp depends on pulling the ear out to ensure straight ear canal.

• Earwax may skew results. 

• Provide core-temperature estimates close to rectal readings.
