Abstract: The temperature of the human body as an indicator of illness is an important part of patient assessment for health care providers throughout the world and because a change in temperature can signal a significant change in health status, rapid and accurate measurement is important in all health care environments.

However, incorrect technique may affect the accuracy and reliability of the measurements and errors in body temperature measurement might seriously influence the evaluation of an individual`s health condition.
