VivaLnk, a firm based in Santa Clara, California, won FDA clearance to introduce its Fever Scout stick-on wireless thermometer. The device, after being stuck to the skin, is designed to be transmit measurements to a tablet or smartphone. Readings can be checked at any time and those taken previously are also available for review.
Though the temperature readings show up on a tablet or smartphone, the thermometer doesn’t communicate with them directly. Instead, it relies on its carrying case, which is also the charging station, to relay the measurements between the thermometer and the display device.
The Fever Scout is rechargeable and comes with eight disposable adhesive strips. It is soft and can be used on all kinds of patients, including peds and adults.
