CLEVELAND – August 2016 – To help parents care for sick children, even through the night, the TempTraq® wearable, Bluetooth® temperature monitor, is now available for purchase at Target, CVS, and Walgreens stores across the country. TempTraq continuously senses, records and transmits body temperature for 24 hours to a mobile device through its free downloadable app, helping parents care for sick children – even through the night.
TempTraq delivers on-the-spot temperature readings in just seconds. The wearable patch alleviates many concerns of those caring for an ill or recovering loved one, including eliminating the need to continually disturb or wake them. TempTraq includes a free downloadable Apple® or Android™ compatible app, allowing users to reach a new level of health care for people of all ages.
Simply press the “start” button to activate the temperature monitor and connect it to the app. Then, apply the thin, flexible patch to the underarm of the patient as directed. As long as the caregiver is within range of the patient, they can easily review data and receive alerts, up to 40 feet away.
Unlike other devices that provide users with only one point of data and offer no continuous monitoring or alerts, the TempTraq app displays both real time and historical temperature data transmitted from the patch in graphical or tabular view, making it possible for caregivers to see fluctuations and quickly adapt treatment.
TempTraq further simplifies the temperature reading process by providing easy-to-follow colors that indicate temperature levels: Green, less than 100.4°F; orange, equal to or greater than 100.4°F; red, equal to or above the user-set temperature alert level. Caregivers can even receive alerts when a patient’s temperature enters this designated red zone.
For those who want to share temperature data with their doctors or family members, TempTraq allows users to securely send temperature information via email. Through the app, users can also keep track of when the patient eats, drinks or takes medicine. For those caring for multiple people, the TempTraq app conveniently allows them to monitor multiple patches simultaneously.
TempTraq is currently available at www.TempTraq.com, as well as in stores nationwide at Target, CVS, Walgreens, Kroger, Fry’s, Dillon’s, Ralph’s, Meijer, and Hy-Vee.
