My name is Denise Burris. I work at Baptist East on the Vascular/Thoracic Unit. I have been an RN for 13 years. A procedure that we do at work that has been evidence-based is that we have totally eliminated doing axillary temperatures. If we are unable to do oral temperatures, we have to do take a rectal temperature.

''Just a thought, has anyone thought about using temporal scanners? They are being used in lots of peds areas. It is a non-invasive procedure and there is growing evidence that it is accurate in measuring temperature.''
