ABSTRACT
Objective The study aimed to discuss the scientific property and feasibility of back measurement of neonates' temperature. Methods Three measurement methods(axillary,under the jaw and the back) were adopted to measure the temperature for 100 neonates for 7,10 and 30 minutes.The tempera-ture measured by rectum for 3 minutes was set as the control. Results . Temperature by back measure-merit was not different from that measured by other methods in the same time period,P > 0.05.Temperature by back measurement for 7,10 and 30 minutes was not different from that measured by rectum for 3 min-utes,P > 0.05. Temperature by back measurement for 7,10 minutes for neonates using radiation rescue plat-form and warm case was not different from that measured by rectum,P > 0.05.Temperature measured by ax-illary and under the jaw for 30 minutes was different from that measued by rectum, P < 0.05.While temper-ature by back measurement for 30 minutes was not different from that measured by rectum,P > 0.05.Conclusions Back measurement of temperature as well as by axillary and the jaw could be used in pedi-atric department.h could accurately obtain the real temperature of neonates and was not influenced by radi-ation rescue platform and warm case.Besides,it reduced the workload of nurses and was safe,effective,simple,practical and worth applying widely in clinic.
