.What is Emergency Medicine- How can the temperature of the core be measured?
Pulmonary artery temperature measurements are the gold standard, however they are infrequently done. Sites such as the esophagus, bladder, and rectal can be measured. If the probe is in cold feces, the rectal temperature may not be accurate or may be artificially low. When inhaling warm air, the esophageal temperature is unnecessarily raised.
