Mercurythermometryisnowusedrarelyinthedevelopedworld,exceptasacomparisonforevaluatingnewdevices,asinthisstudy.Thisislargelyduetoconcernsaboutthehazardsassociatedwithmercury.Mercuryemitsatoxicvapourthatcanbeinhaledorabsorbeddirectlythroughtheskin.Thisvapourmaypersistformonthsoryears(Blumenthal,1992).Veryprematureneonateswiththeirincreasedskinpermeabilityareahigh-riskgroupforabsorbingmercuryvapour,especiallyasthewarmenvironmentrequiredfortheircarefacilitatesmercuryvapourisation(DoH,1985).Whilemercurythermometershavebeenregardedasthegoldstandardformeasurementofbodytemperature(Blumenthal,1992;

Anumberofthesedeviceshavebeenstudiedpreviously(Davis,1993;

Readingswereobtainedatthesametime,usingglassmercurythermometryandoneofthetwotrialdevices.TemperaturereadingsweretakenasclinicallyindicatedandallinfantspresentonanyareaoftheNICUwereeligibleforinclusion.Guidelinesweredevelopedsothatthesamemethodoftemperaturemeasurementwouldbeundertakenbyindividualnurses,ensuringcomparablesetsofdatawouldbeproduced,whichdifferedonlybywhichtrialthermometerwasused.
Themercurythermometerwasheldinplaceforfiveminutes,asrecommendedbyBliss-Holtz(1995).TheSuretempthermometerwassettothepredictivemode.EithertheSuretemportheLightouchwasplacedontheinfantuntilareadingwasobtained.Thetworeadingswerethenrecordedonatrialdatasheet.

Comparisonofthereadingsfromeachtrialthermometerwiththeirrespectivepairedglassmercuryaxillaryreadingswasaccomplishedbycalculatinglimitsofagreement,withinwhich95%±
