5.3. EAR TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
· A temperature measurement taken from right ear may differ from
a measurement taken from left ear. Therefore, always take the
temperature in the same ear.
· External factors may influence ear and forehead temperatures,
particularly when an individual has:
• been lying on one ear or the other
• had their ears covered
• been exposed to very hot or very cold temperatures
• been recently swimming or bathing.
