The Risk of Rectal Temperature Measurement in Neutropenia [PDF]
Rambam Maimonides Medical Journal, 2023 Background: Avoiding rectal thermometry is recommended in patients with neutropenic fever. Permeability of the anal mucosa may result in a higher risk of bacteremia in these patients. Still, this recommendation is based on only a few studies. Methods:

Associations between Surface and Rectal Temperature Profiles of Low-Birth-Weight Piglets [PDF]
Animals, 2023 The use of infrared cameras to record surface temperature has shown some promise in older pigs, but neonatal piglets are metabolically less mature and experience rapid temperature changes during their first 24 h.

Reference Interval Determination for Digital Rectal Temperature in Healthy Ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) [PDF]
AnimalsWhile digital rectal thermometry is commonly used for assessing health and identifying illness in ferrets, there is little evidence to support frequently cited ranges of normal rectal temperature in this species.

High-Performance Automated Detection of Sheep Binocular Eye Temperatures and Their Correlation with Rectal Temperature [PDF]
AnimalsAlthough rectal temperature is reliable, its measurement requires manual handling and causes stress to animals. IRT provides a non-contact alternative but often ignores bilateral eye temperature differences.
