The Braun Thermoscan Ear Thermometer has been specially designed to make taking young children’s temperature very easy and comfortable for the child. It is used by many doctors and gives precise results due to the pre-warmed tip and the infra red guidance system. It gives accurate results in seconds and sells for around $45.

Clinical studies have shown that taking the temperature in this way is more accurate than using a temple or rectal thermometer as the temperature in the eardrum is linked directly to the part of the brain that regulates the core body temperature. In addition the temperature in the ear is not affected by eating or drinking, drafts on the skin or seating which can affect other types of thermometers. The accuracy is also enhanced by the pre-warmed tip which does not suffer the cooling effects room temperature tips do.

The Braun Thermoscan Ear Thermometer has an infra red guidance system to ensure the tip is placed in the correct position. It uses a light and a beep to inform the user when it is in the correct place. The thermometer can also keep the last eight readings in its memory.

Let’s look at what actual users of the Braun Thermoscan Ear Thermometer thought about it. Amazon customers recorded forty reviews of which 25 gave it five stars and eight gave it four stars. It has been in the top 100 bestsellers at Amazon in the health category for over 200 days.

The fast readings were especially liked by users who found this a big advantage when using it with sick, not always cooperative, children. They thought the guidance system effective and easy to use. The pre-warmed tip, although designed more for accuracy, is also an advantage with children as it is more comfortable for them. There is also an auto off function which saves on batteries.

One disadvantage noted was the lack of back lighting for the screen which would help when taking a sick child’s temperature at night. You will need to replace the lens caps as they are one use only and the thermometer won’t work without them. They cost around $8 for forty.

In conclusion this Braun Thermoscan Ear Thermometer Review has shown that it is well liked by users and gives an accurate and fast temperature reading.
