Fever in a young baby: any temperature of 100.4°F (38.0°C) or higher in a baby under 3 months old needs medical care the same day. See the fever guide.
Reading the chart
Ranges are for a person who is awake, resting and measured correctly. Sleep lowers heart and breathing rates; crying, activity, pain and fever raise them. Oxygen saturation (SpO2) is on room air. Temperature is the body’s core range — armpit readings run lower and are less precise. The full guide, with a page for every age band, measuring instructions and the fever guide, lives at medicalvideos.com/vital-signs/.

Abnormal readings in someone who is unwell warrant medical care.Please note: This page is patient education, not medical advice. Normal ranges are guides for a person who is awake, resting and measured correctly — a single reading outside the range is not a diagnosis. Abnormal readings in someone who is unwell, breathing with difficulty, unusually drowsy or simply worrying you warrant medical care — seek it promptly rather than re-checking at home.
