I purchase this thermometer and use it on my adult clients and almost all result are febrile readings. It is not accurate. Now i have a thermometer i have no use for.

Yes, it can be used on anyone. Read the instructions and you should be good to go.

The picture on the package may lead you to assume that the thermometer is strictly intended for taking human temperatures. The device, however, is not so limited. It can be used to measure the temperature of many things. That being the case it would not make sense for the manufacturer to color code temperatures in specific ranges that correlate to human conditions. Short answer to your question: "No"

It's just like any other thermometer so I wouldn't see why you couldn't. It's very accurate.

Yes, this thermometer is appropriate for babies. My daughter brought one to me to check my infant grand daughter's temp throughout the day. It is so easy to use that I purchased one for my household.

I've never tried but I would assume not. I believe it's only meant to measure air temperature.

There are instructions for rectal use and it can be used for this purpose. As another reviewer mentioned, the thermometer is slightly slower than others. My son showed no discomfort from it.

The cuff is designed for adults and would be awkward for use on small arms. To get the proper fit, the cuff would have to be tightened so much that it would wrap around itself and cover the sensor. Besides being awkward, I don't think that the sensor would make good contact with the inner arm artery, which is crucial for accurate results. I wouldn't recommend it for children, there should be devices out there specifically designed for children or persons with small arms.

This size may not be ideal for small children. It may be too big and not give an accurate reading. This device seems to be adult size. There are other pulse oximeter geared towards children. Hope this helps.

it's an oral digital thermometer, you can juuust make it out in the picture at the bottom right. It might also work underarms for a newborn

It's for a child. It's only supposed to be used in the baby's rectum. You should just use a regular thermometer for an adult if you want one for an adult.

I'm sure you could depending on the tempature. This thermometer only reads up to 78 degrees. Good luck Cheers

no, it will work just fine for any adult, its very comfortable, one of the nicest chairs i have ever owned. i take it everywhere with me.

I don't see why not. The sensor inside is pretty small, so I think as long as you cover the sensor with the finger tip it works. I don't have access to a child to test it.

I'm no expert about this, but I purchased it for my daughter who is nearly nine and she isn't really strong enough for it. I would say, yes, an adult could use it.

I don't know about the "medical grade", but yes you can use it on adults. I've owned many thermometers, but I literally threw out others and kept this. It's incredibly easy and accurate. I use it on me, my husband, and our children.

Nope. It's not intended for that use. Just check the internal temperature about half-hour before end of recommended cook time then you'll know how to gauge it.

Seems like this thermometer measures temp in any subjects, I don't see why it couldn't be used on dogs
