Original research date April 2010 Unreferenced date April 2010 Rectal thermometry is an umbrella term covering the practice, widely used in modern medicine and science, of taking a mammal s temperature by inserting a thermometer into the aforementioned mammal s rectum via the anus . This is generally regarded as the most accurate means of temperature taking, but many humans consider it to be an invasive or demeaning procedure, and thus it is used sparingly and primarily on young children. History The precise history of rectal thermometry is largely unknown, but medical thermometer s have long been made in a tube shape that fits into the anus. Medical literature shows the practice dating back to at least the 18th century, and it is probable that rectal thermometry was thought to be a safer alternative to oral temperature taking, due to the use of mercury element mercury and other toxic chemicals in early thermometers. As thermometry related technology improves in the 21st century, rectal thermometry is becoming less and less pervasive, but it is still the preferred method for taking the temperature of infants and dogs. Current usage and procedure Rectal thermometry is widely used in veterinary medicine and pediatrics as well as by adults at home who want the most accurate possible temperature reading and do not mind the discomfort associated with the procedure. It is accomplished by inserting the tip of a thermometer, usually coated in some kind of oil based lubricant such as petroleum jelly or shortening , about two inches into the anus. The thermometer tip must then be left in place until a reading can be derived, usually about 60 seconds. As sexual fetish There are rare instances of individuals who derive sexual pleasure from the process of having a thermometer inserted into their rectum or inserting a thermometer into the rectum of another.
