<p>An improved electronic thermometer for rectal, oral, and axillary temperature measurements includes a removable module that houses a temperature sensitive probe and isolation chamber as well as a supply of clean, uncontaminated disposable probe covers on a single color coded module. Each removable module is interchangeably operable with a single temperature calculating unit. This thermometer design reduces the risk of patient exposure to all of the common sources of contamination encountered in the use of electronic thermometers by isolating the probe, the isolation chamber, and a supply of disposable probe covers on one dedicated removable module.</p> |
