Registerbody temperature measurement [Design Issues]
Hello Eswar,
elevated body temperature is a sign of inflammation, therefore it's included in the screening.
The method of measurement hardly matters; axilliary temperature is about 0.2-0.5 °C lower than oral temperature, but the method itself is less reliable.
If you want to get a quick result, you also may opt for a pyrometer-measurement in the ear.
Body temperature should be monitored during all studies of infusions (especially in the first hours).

Hermann
