Only a few studies examined the accuracy of infrared skin thermometers in children and the results are conflicting.2,–,4 In a prospective study, we evaluated the correlation and the agreement between two types of infrared skin thermometers (Thermofocus and Exergen) and axillary measurements (Terumo digital clinical thermometer) in patients admitted to the …
