hi i know this is off the track but i would like to know if it is common practice in all SCBU that you do a rectal temp on neonates when they are admitted. i know that there is evidence to state this practice is not good and that we should be doing tympanic temps as they are far more accurate also can anyone point me in the right direction to find this as ive tried looking but can find the trial to print out thanks sharon ---- Anne Clarke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Joanne, >
