Exergen Temporal Scanner/ Temporal Artery Thermometer

Simply a better way to take a patient’s temperature

The Temporal Scanner is as accurate as rectal, esophageal,and pulmonary artery thermistor temperatures. The Temporal Scanner should be your thermometer of choice for reliable, precise non-invasive readings.

Non-Invasiveness + Speed = Patient Comfort

In addition to providing a non-invasive means to measure temperature, the Temporal Scanner is fast -- it can provide an accurate temperature reading in seconds. Further. similar to pulmonary artery temperature, the Temporal Scanner identifies changes in your patient’s temperature sooner than rectal measurements and with more reliability than axillary measurements.

The Temoral Scanner not only generates clinical intelligence you can rely on to make timely and well informed care decisions, it can support your efforts to enhance patient comfort as part of the caregiving process.

Getting a reading is as easy as 1-2-3

Cost-Effective Without Compromise

Compared to oral thermometers, the Temporal Scanner temporal artery thermometer can offer a lower overall cost of ownership – with a higher degree of performance and accuracy. Further, by reducing the need for probe covers, the Temporal Scanner can reduce thermometry-related expense and waste.

In addition, the Temporal Scanner is provided with a manufacturer’s lifetime limited warranty -- compare to the typical three-year warranty provided on oral thermometers. Rest assured in knowing that your up-front investment in the Temporal Scanner will be protected over the life of the thermometer.

Supports Infection Control

The Temporal Scanner temporal artery thermometer provides the added protection of a silver ion antimicrobial head, which is capable of self-disinfecting. The silver ion anti-microbial head kills microbes such as E-Coli, Staph and Listeria. In addition, laboratory tests1 show that Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococus aureus (MRSA) and

Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecalis (VRE) are cut by more than 20 percent in 10 minutes, and reduced to undetectable levels in 6 hours. Plus, since the Temporal Scanner does not come in contact with mucous membranes, the risk of patient infection is reduced. This helps protect patients from harmful bacteria and cansupport your organization’s infection control initiatives.

Cleaning the Temporal Scanner is as easy as cleaning a stethoscope.
