Feverscan Enhances Postanesthesia Temperature Monitoring

Healthcare professionals managing postoperative anesthesia or PACU (Post-Anesthesia Care Unit) patients now have access to an innovative solution for temperature monitoring. The FeverScan® disposable forehead thermometer addresses the limitations of traditional thermometers, offering a safer and more efficient alternative.

Utilizing cutting-edge thermochromic liquid crystal (TLC) technology, FeverScan® represents a significant advancement in clinical temperature trend measurement. Designed specifically for anesthesia and PACU environments, this solution combines simplicity with rigorous hygiene standards.

The disposable forehead thermometer offers five distinct benefits for medical professionals:

• Precision Monitoring: The device features discrete temperature indicators that change color from tan to green and finally blue as temperature increases, providing clear visual confirmation of temperature trends. With an accuracy of ±1.0°F, clinicians can trust the measurements.
• Continuous Display: Unlike conventional thermometers requiring repeated measurements, FeverScan® maintains constant temperature visibility, enabling real-time patient monitoring.
• Simplified Workflow: The adhesive-based application requires minimal training, allowing medical staff to focus on critical patient care rather than equipment operation.
• Enhanced Infection Control: As a single-use device, FeverScan® eliminates cross-contamination risks associated with reusable thermometers. The latex-free construction further reduces potential allergic reactions.
• Quality Assurance: Manufactured by LCR Hallcrest in FDA-registered facilities, each compact unit (0.4375" × 1.8125") meets stringent quality standards, with packages containing 100 individually sealed thermometers.

The thermometer covers a broad clinical range from 94-104°F (34.4-40°C) in 2°F increments, accommodating diverse patient needs. Core temperature calibration ensures measurement accuracy correlates with internal body temperature. Comprehensive documentation including instructions, safety data sheets, and compliance statements accompanies the product.

This technological innovation represents more than just medical equipment—it embodies a commitment to advancing patient care standards. By combining accuracy with operational efficiency, FeverScan® provides clinicians with reliable tools for maintaining optimal patient outcomes during critical recovery periods.
