| Abstract: | Body temperature was determined weekly for a period of 3 weeks in 346 healthy children aged 5 months to 10 years. Individual axillary temperatures in the 346 children ranged from 35.05°C to 37.28°C and fell into the normal distribution curve. This study has thus determined normal body temperatures in Nigerian children and will serve as reference data for future comparison. |
