THE NEXT GENERATION IN
CLINICAL FEVER THERMOMETERS
The Importance of Temperature Monitoring
 What can temperature tell ?


A fever is one of the body's immune responses that attempts to neutralize a bacterial or viral infection. A fever can
be caused by many different conditions ranging from benign to potentially serious.
Fever is a common symptom of many medical conditions:
 Infectious
diseases,e.g., influenza, HIV, malaria, infectious mononucleosis, or gastroenteritis
 Various skin inflammations,e.g., boils, or abscess
 Immunological diseases,e.g., lupus erythematosus, sarcoidosis, inflammatory bowel
diseases, Kawasaki disease
 Tissue
destruction, which can occur in hemolysis, surgery, infarction, crush syndrome,
rhabdomyolysis, cerebral hemmorrhage,etc.
incompatible blood products
 Cancers, most commonly kidney cancer and leukemia and lymphomas
 Metabolic disorders, e.g., gout or porphyria
 Thrombo-embolic processes,e.g., pulmonary embolism or deep venous thrombosis

Reaction to
Small change; Big difference.
 The importance of closely and accurately monitoring body
temperature lies in the fact that a fever ; which as described
earlier, could be a symptom of a number of different-not so
serious or serious conditions- is
indicated by a very
small change in temperature.
A SMALL CHANGE from 102◦F to 104◦F- makes a very

The Thermometer Story
.
This was the preffered thermometer for a long period of time as it gave a fairly accurate
reading. However it came with a family of problems too such as breakage, firing up in
high heat conditions, slow reset and inefficient readability. Around the 1990’s, in many
regions of the world, it was decided that it was too risky to handle. The vigorous shaking
required to reset the thermometer often resulted in breakage and spilling of the
poisonous mercury content.
Attempted to replace glass mercury thermometers but came with an array of it s own
problems such as ; high price, extra costs for batteries and maintenance and a lack of
accuracy in many instances particularly if battery is low.
of thermometers also came into use in recent yrs. such as Ear and
Forehead Thermometers but they haven t had a lasting impact due to prevailing issues in
regard to accuracy , or due to inconvenient methods of use and price.
The Next Generation

Disposable Thermometer
Reusable Thermometer in a Wallet Card.

Continous reading, Wearable Thermometer.

How to Use
 The last black Dot indicates the patients
temperature.
 NexTemp;


Place in heat pocket under tongue or in axilla.
One minute under tongue and three minutes in axilla.
 TraxIt ;


Peel off and adhere to axilla.
First reading after 2-3 minutes. Continuous readings thereafter.
Made for Accuracy
 Each Dot/Cavity is filled with a chemical that is set to react at a specific
temperature.
It is not a prediction of the temperature it is ;
Safety
 The chemicals (only 2 milligrams of liquid crystal
chemicals) are fully encapsulated by a clear polymeric film
which prevents contact. While this provides as an extra
safety precaution, the chemical has passed rigorous
tests to prove it’s safety as per U.S.A safety
requirements.
 NexTemp and TraxIt are both Latex
Mercury Free.
