WHAT IS BODY TEMPERATURE?

Body temperature refers to the internal tempe-

rature of the body (core temperature). ‘Normal’

body temperature ﬂ uctuates over the course

of 24 hours. It tends to be lowest in the early

morning and highest in the late afternoon. Body

temperature also varies depending on the part of

the body where the temperature is measured and

also differs with age. Hence, the body tempera-

ture measurement obtained depends on when

and where the temperature is taken and on who

the patient is.
