4.2 In case of sweating: take the reading on the eyelid
At times, the forehead can show signs of sweat,
for example as a fever drops, and this can result in
a low reading. Dry the forehead is not enough. In
this case, you can take the temperature reading,
again at distance on the closed eyelid (fig. 7).
Proceed as you would do for a forehead reading.
No need to worry that your child could open its
eyes while you are taking the reading: the lights
are harmless.
Precision is not guaranteed, but such reading
can be considered a valid approximation of one's
body temperature.
In adults, such reading is also indicated when one has oil or make-up on the forehead;
moreover it is also valid for the elderly as well as in case of oxygen mask.
4.3 Readings of skin surface temperature
VisioFocus can also scan the skin surface temperature: this can be useful to monitor
the temperature of inflammations, ulcers, wounds (for example on diabetic patients
and under control of your physician).
Proceed as you would for a forehead reading but press the "home"
display will light up in green and will show the "home"
NOTE: skin surface temperature is NOT body temperature. To measure body
temperature, proceed as described in par. #4.1.
4.4 Other readings (non-medical use)
VisioFocus can also be used to read the
temperature of objects, food and liquids in the
1,0-80,0°C (33.8-176.0°F) temperature range.
For example, you can take the temperature of:
1 a baby's feed bottle (fig. 8),
2. food,
3. bathwater.
Mix liquids well before taking the reading and,
with hot liquids or foods, take the reading quickly
to prevent condensation from forming on the
waveguide and wait 30 min. before taking
another reading.
Proceed as you would for a forehead reading but press the "home"
display will light up in green and will show the "home"
NOTE: this intended use is not subject to assessment by the Notified Body.
