Review & Giveaway: Exergen TemporalScanner


There have been babies in my life for as long as I can remember. It wasn't until I was officially an aunt that I truly understood what it meant to love someone that you didn't even know. I love my friends kids and members of the family but Damien is the one who shocked me with an overwhelming feeling of love. When he is sick I just want to take it all away. When he has a fever, I feel better taking his temperature with the Exergen Temporal Thermometer. He doesn't mind this as much as the regular thermometers. Plus, we don't have to fight with him and just hope that the reading is right. If you ask me, all mother's should have this handy device.

Product Details (taken from here):

The TemporalScanner Thermometer is a totally 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.

The TemporalScanner Thermometer has been clinically tested for accuracy compared to rectal thermometers and temperature sensors inserted in the heart during course of patient treatment and accepted for use in major hospitals, making it the ideal thermometer for use with newborns, infants, children or adults.

The TemporalScanner has patented software, providing arterial heat balance. 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.

  10. I learned that you should only measure the side of the head that is exposed. (Meaning that any covering like a hat or hair will prevent heat from dissipating and could give a false high reading. This also applies if one side of the head has been down on a pillow.)

  61. I learned that the temperature is the same temp as the blood flowing from the heart - so it's the most accurate temp!
