There are times when a product I’m about to review, comes at just the right time in my life.  My son is FINALLY over Rotavirus (which by the way is THE worst childhood illness we’ve experienced in his 22 months of life) and while it’s been a miserable 2 weeks, I’m really glad I had an Exergen TemporalScanner Temporal Artery thermometer in the house.  As a nurse, you’d think that I was an expert at every thermometer on the market.  Well…surprise, surprise.  Up until we received this thermometer, I took my son’s temperature the conventional way…under the arm or rectally.  Taking a squirmy toddler’s temperature when he’s sick is difficult and often requires multiple attempts to ensure an accurate reading.

child-abc

I’ve never actually used an ear thermometer, but according to a Harvard Medical School study, the TemporalScanner was proven to be more accurate.  I have always been told by doctors in my field of expertise that ear thermometers vary in terms of accuracy.  Accuracy is dependent upon both the product and the user.  When my son is sick, I want accuracy and I want it as soon as possible. I don’t want to have to take his temperature 3 times (which I’ve done) until I THINK I have it right. The TemporalScanner provides an accurate temperature in two seconds.  Here is a little more information about the thermometer from the site:

The TemporalScanner thermometer is a non-invasive system with advanced infrared technology providing maximum ease of use with quick, consistently accurate measurements. Advanced, patented technology measures temperatures with a gentle stroke across the forehead.

Using the thermometer is very easy and it doesn’t require a license (hehe).  Once you’ve inserted the battery, place the probe flush with the center of the forehead.  Depress the scan button and slide the scanner across the forehead towards the temple.  Release the button and read the temperature.  Here is a little video I did with my son:

temporal2

When my son first saw the thermometer, he didn’t want anything to do with it (as is typical of sick toddlers).  So I let him play with it and watch mommy and daddy scan each other’s foreheads.  Of course, he then wanted his forehead scanned too!  One of the things I should mention is that we started scanning without taking the protective plastic cover off (don’t do that!).  I thought tempeartures of 82 degrees were just a tad low! So…read the manual or go on the website and THEN use the thermometer (not the other way around!).  I like that it’s quick, non-invasive and accurate.  I took my son’s temperature several times and got the same reading (plus or minus a few tenths of a degree).

There is an entire science involved with why the temporal artery provides the most accurate reading, but I’ll let you read all about that on the site.  The TemporalScanner retails for around $50 and can be found at retailers nationwide including Walmart (it’s less than $30 here) and Babies R Us.

Win It! One of you will receive an Exergen TemporalScanner!  Simply head on over to the site and take a look around. Come back here and leave me a comment with a fact about the thermometer that was not mentioned on the site (there is a lot of information you can comment on).  Comments will close on April 19, 2009 at 10 PM PST.  One comment per person, please (unless you do the extra credit).

    The temporal temp is the temp of blood flowing fron the heart so it is much more accurate than other methods… There are less modifying factors and you don’t need to even wake them up to get a reading fast…

    The temporal artery thermometer scans the forehead area for the temporal artery and it is almost impossible to miss the artery during a scan. Unlike with the ear probe it’s easy to get inaccurate readings.
    I know this for a fact.. The last 4 months I have been to my GYN 6 times. Each time they took my temp with an ear probe. Every time it read that I had a temp of over a 100. I was perfectly healthy each time I was there. I will have to make sure to tell them to get one of these when I am in for my next appt nest week..

But the fact that the temporal artery is connected to the heart seems like you would get a great reading using that! Count me in… I’d love to try!

    Temporal artery temperature is not affected by the things that cause oral and underarm temperatures to be misleading.

    First it scans like a video camera, capturing naturally emitted infrared heat from the arterial blood supply at about 1000 “frames” per second, locking in the highest temperature it senses and;
    Second, at the same time, a patented system measures the ambient temperature of the site where the temperature is being taken. The patented “arterial heat balance” (AHB) software then synthesizes the two separate readings to accurately determine and display body temperature

Our 23 month old is on immune-suppresant medications to prevent rejection of her heart transplant that she received at 8 days old. You can’t imagine how often she has been sick!

    I would love to win the Exergen Temporal Scanner Thermometer! Doctors know that measurement of the blood temperature in a major artery accurately reflects true body temperature. The Temporal Scanner Thermometer is designed to measure the temperature of the skin surface over the temporal artery, a major artery of the head. It is the only such artery positioned close enough to the skin surface to provide access needed to take an accurate measurement. It’s easy to use because it is ideally located at the front portion of the forehead. Oh, to own such an accurate, non-invasive thermometer!

    Measure only the side of the head that is exposed. Any covering, hair, hat, etc. will prevent the heat from dissipating, and would cause the reading to be falsely high.
    With six children, this would be great to have. Thanks.

Doctors know that measurement of the blood temperature in a major artery accurately reflects true body temperature. The TemporalScanner Thermometer is designed to measure the temperature of the skin surface over the temporal artery, a major artery of the head.

    of the area where the temperature is being taken. The patented
    “arterial heat balance” (AHB) software then synthesizes the two separate
    readings to accurately determine and display body temperature. – taken straight from the online manual. which is really good when you think about it. a thousand frames is incredibly face in just those few seconds. thank you for the chance.

    It takes the highest reading on the forehead and the ambient air reading together and calculates the temp.
    I’m looking forward to a non-invasive approach to temperature reading.

    The scanner works VERY much like a laser mouse, taking infrared “pictures” about every millisecond (about one thousand per second) while watching for a specific pattern indicating “ahah, temporal artery detected, Cap’n!!”. THEN it figures out which was the best picture to yield the right hot-and-cold gradients, and finally measures just how hot was the peak temperature detected. Very impressive, watching technology just keep on keeping on, making life better and simpler. Thanks for the chance here!

    The best place to measure temperature is the center of the heart, but this can be done only under a doctor’s supervision. Dr.’s know that measurement of the blood temperature in a major artery accurately reflects true body temperature.

    I love that it is non invasive and so fast. I also like that it is sold at walmart. having a child with special needs that has had lots of fevers and runs when he sees a themometer this would be great for him. 1000 reading a second. That is fast

    From the Exergen website: Doctors know that measurement of the blood temperature in a major artery accurately reflects true body temperature. The TemporalScanner Thermometer is designed to measure the temperature of the skin surface over the temporal artery, a major artery of the head.

    This unique process determines temperature by accurately measuring the balance between the tissues warming from arterial blood and tissues cooling (warming) caused by heat loss (gain) to the environment.
