How does Braun No touch + forehead work?
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer measures infrared
energy radiated from the skin at the center of the forehead area. This
captured energy (which is twice as much thermal energy compared to
a traditional forehead thermometer
1
), is collected through the lens and
converted to a body temperature value.
The Braun No touch + forehead thermometer has been clinically
tested and proven to be safe and accurate when used in accordance
with its operating instruction manual.
1. A traditional forehead product without any optical system to capture radiated heat.
Fever guidance feature
Fever guidance helps you to better understand the meaning of a
temperature with the color indicated on the display. A green screen
suggests no fever, a yellow screen suggests moderate fever, and red
signals high fever. 10 audible beeps indicate temperatures above
37.4°C to alert that the patient may have a fever.
NOTE: Backlight remains OFF when below temperature readings are registered:
34.4 ≤ T ≤ 35.7°C
