A
Feedback:
The ear, or the tympanic membrane, is the peripheral site that most closely reflects core body temperature. The most practical and convenient temperature assessment sites are the ear, mouth, rectum, and axilla. However, the tympanic membrane is most accurately indicative of core temperature.
