Clinical and Regulatory Compliance
Clinical thermometers used in care settings should be UKCA or CE marked and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's calibration schedule. CQC expects registered providers to use accurate, well-maintained temperature measurement devices as part of routine clinical observations and infection screening. Results should be documented in the patient's clinical record and escalated per the facility's sepsis and infection management pathways.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should this thermometer be cleaned between patients?
The waterproof construction allows full immersion cleaning. Wipe the probe with an alcohol swab or compatible clinical disinfectant between each patient use. For rectal measurement, use a disposable probe cover for each patient and clean the device thoroughly after removal.
Does this thermometer require calibration?
UKCA-marked clinical thermometers are factory calibrated. Periodic accuracy verification is recommended in accordance with the facility's medical equipment management policy. If readings appear inconsistent, compare against a reference thermometer and replace the device if accuracy cannot be confirmed.
