Best Answer

0o and 100o were arbitrarily allocated to the freezing and boiling points of water respectively.

This gave a range of 100o which was thought to be adequate for its time.

Why would a 0C to 100C thermometer be useless to a doctor examining a patient?

It would not be accurate enough. The clinical thermometer works over a limited range and gives accurate more readings. It would be useful. The temperature of patients rarely drop below freezing and they rarely boil. It would be useless to measure the temperature of food though because food is often cooked above 100C.
