Background: 98.6°F is generally accepted as normal body temperature as defined by Wunderlich (1868) and later challenged by Mackowiak (1992) and Protsiv (2020) who concluded it as 98.2°F based on cross-sectional studies. Hence, the normal body temperature at present needs quantification as per a longitudinal study in Indians. Patients and Methods: A longitudinal study on the healthy population of Northern India was followed-up over 1 year. Participants were advised for self-monitoring of oral temperature with a standard digital thermometer in either left or right sublingual pocket and record it in the thermometry diary. The study was considered complete if the participant had all three phases of the study (i.e., non-febrile, febrile and post-febrile phases) or completed the duration of the study. Results: The mean oral temperature of the participants (n = 144) during the non-febrile and post-febrile phases (temperature readings = 6543) were 98.0°F (standard deviation [SD], 0.61) and 98.01°F (SD, 0.60), respectively (P < 0.001). With the diurnal variability, the morning (am), noon (an) and afternoon (pm) mean temperatures were 97.91°F, 98.08°F and 98.27°F (P < 0.001), respectively, during the non-febrile phase. Similar trends were observed in variability among men and women, seasons and across post-febrile phase. Conclusions: The mean oral temperature was 98.0°F (SD, 0.61). The temperature was as low as 96.9°F and as high as 99.1°F. The temperature during the post-febrile phase was found to be higher than the non-febrile phase temperature such as pm over an and am, women over men, summer over other seasons in the non-febrile phase and spring over others in the post-febrile phase.","PeriodicalId":251651,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Evidence","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133051961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in actual practice, compliance of these protocols is poor. Aims: (1) To observe the practice of hand hygiene among HCWs and (2) assess knowledge and awareness regarding hand hygiene protocol and identify the factors hampering its effective practice. Prospective observational study at an multispeciality hospital. Patients and Methods: Consultants, junior doctors, nursing in-charges and nurses and ancillary staff like ward attendants, ward secretaries, housekeeping staff and lift operators were (1) Observed during their hand hygiene practice and (2) 200 of these HCWs were provided a written questionnaire, in order to assess their depth of hand hygiene knowledge. Data were studied and analysed. Results: Female HCWs, right from consultants to ward attendants and ancillary workers showed better knowledge and compliance with hand hygiene practices. The junior nurses, interns and junior residents were more compliant with hand hygiene procedures in comparison to consultants and in-charge nurses. Hand hygiene compliance was poor in outpatient department, particularly on days with heavy workloads. Lack of knowledge regarding hand hygiene was observed amongst ancillary staff. Conclusions: The study emphasised stringent compliance and constant re-enforcement of protocol of correct hand hygiene practice amongst HCWs including ancillary staff.","PeriodicalId":251651,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Evidence","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123486852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
