3 types of thermometer for midwifery?

In midwifery, three common types of thermometers used are digital thermometers, which provide quick and accurate readings; infrared forehead thermometers, which allow for non-contact temperature measurement; and glass or Mercury thermometers, though less commonly used now due to safety concerns. Digital thermometers are preferred for their ease of use and reliability, while infrared thermometers offer convenience, especially in busy clinical settings. Accurate temperature monitoring is essential for assessing maternal and fetal health during pregnancy and labor.
