iHealth Thermometer

This product is a high-tech infra-red(IR) thermometer designed to take human body temperature by measuring the energy of IR emitted from the forehead. The product helps you to access you and your family members’ health conditions easily and quickly

CAUTION

(1) Measurements
  1. Thermometer readings should be regarded as a reference. Do no attempt self-diagnostics or self-treatment using the temperature readings. Please seek professional medical advice when necessary.

  2. There is no absolute standard for human body temperature. Knowing your own normal body temperature range is important to accurately determine if you have a fever.

  3. Make sure that the forehead of the subject is free from sweat, cosmetics, dirt, or grease before measuring.

  4. Patients should not drink, eat, or be physically active before/while taking a reading. Wait 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Temperature readings taken when a body is in a state of stable equilibrium is more accurate and useful as a reference.

  5. Do not take temperature measurement over scar tissue, open sores or abrasions.

  6. Do not measure body temperature from scar tissues on the forehead as such tissues will affect temperature conduction of the body.

  7. If there is a temperature difference between the thermometer storage area and the new ambient environment around the forehead, please let the thermometer sit within the new environment for 30 minutes before taking the measurement.

  8. Do not measure body temperature immediately after consuming a drug that raises body temperature. Temperature readings taken at this time will not be accurate.

  9. It is normal for readings taken from continuous measurement to fluctuate within a small range. During continuous measurements, the subject’s body temperature may be transmitted to the thermometer, affecting measurement accuracy. We recommend taking only up to 3 continuous readings within a short period.

  10. Do not directly face the sun or an air outlet of an air conditioning or radiator device during the measurement as this will cause changes to the forehead temperature. Measurements should be taken in a stable environment where possible.

  11. Do not measure body temperature in an environment with strong EM interference (examples include places close to a working microwave, induction cooker, or cellphone in-use) as EM interference may cause errors in the reading or even device failure.

  12. This product should be considered a personal device. Clean and sanitize the product properly to prevent cross-contamination.

  13. To clean a dirty thermometer probe, gently swipe the probe using a cotton swab dipped in 75% alcohol. Let the cleaned thermometer sit for at least 15 minutes before taking more measurements.

  14. This infrared thermometer meets requirements established in ASTM Standard (E1965-98) Except of clause 5.2.2. It displays subject’s temperature over a range of 89.6°F-109.2°F.

Product errors and troubleshooting

Product errors

Product errors

Body temperature

  • Body temperature varies from person to person and fluctuates during the course of the day. For this reason, it is suggested to know one’s normal, healthy forehead temperature to correctly determine the temperature.
  • Body temperature runs approximately from 95.9°F to100°F (35.5℃-37.8℃). To determine if one has a fever, compare the temperature detected with the person’s normal temperature. A rise over the reference body temperature of 1°F(1℃) or more is generally an indication of fever.
  • Different measurement sites(rectal, axillary, oral, frontal, auricular) will give different readings. Therefore it is wrong to compare the measurement taken from different sites.

The following are typical temperatures for adults, based on different measurement sites:

Rectal 97.9°F-99.1°F 36.6℃ to 38℃
Axillary 94.5°F-99.1°F 34.7℃ to 37.3℃
Oral 95.9°F-99.5°F 35.5℃ to 37.5℃
Auricular 96.4°F-100.4°F 35.8℃ to 38℃

Care and Cleaning

1. The probe (comprising a temperature sensor and a distance sensor) is the most intricate part of the thermometer, and should be kept clean and intact to acquire accurate readings.
Use the following method to clean the probe:
Gently swab the surface of the probe using a cotton bud soaked in > 75% medical alcohol.
2. If the probe (sensor) is broken, please contact customer services.
3. Use a piece of soft, dry cloth to clean the display screen and external surface of the thermometer. If the thermometer is very dirty, the cloth can be moistened with some medical alcohol to clean the device.

Official Site for Personal Health Management

  • Make sure the forehead of the subject is free from sweat, cosmetics, dirt, or grease before measuring.
  • User and the thermometer should be in the same ambient temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  • Always hold the thermometer when taking a reading. Do not move the thermometer until you feel the final vibration.
  • Don’t take a measurement while or immediately after nursing a baby.
  • Users should not drink, eat, or be physically active before/while taking the measurement.
  • Remove hats and wait 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
  • Before taking a measurement, remove dirt or hair from the forehead area. Wait 30 minutes after cleaning before taking a measurement.
  • Always take the temperature exactly as directed. Temperature results may vary if positioned in the wrong location.
__Why my test result are lower than the temperature tested from other

body sites – iHealth® Official Site for Personal Health Management

Medical research hasn’t determined an exact correlation between oral, rectal, ear, armpit, and forehead temperature measurements. Generally, the correlation of temperature results are as follows:

  • The average normal oral temperature is 98.6°F (37°C).
  • A rectal temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature.
  • An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature.
  • An armpit (axillary) temperature is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature.
  • A forehead (temporal) scanner is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature.

Information Sources:

https://www.mottchildren.org/health-library/tw9223

The reference body site of PT3 is oral. Please compare with oral temperature from the testing result. Ear and rectal temperatures are normally higher than oral and forehead temperatures.

When people develop a fever, the heat conduction will take time to arrive at the forehead, there is a time gap. Suggest measuring every 5 minutes until the temperature stabilizes.

__Why my body temperature changed day and night? – iHealth® Official

Site for Personal Health Management

Your temperature doesn’t stay same all day, and it will vary throughout your lifetime, too. Some things that cause your temperature to move around during the day include:

  • How active you are

  • What time of day it is

  • Your age

  • Your sex

  • What you’ve eaten or had to drink

  • (If you’re a woman) where you are in your menstrual cycle.
