Temperature is a cardinal vital sign and one of the most frequently performed measurements at all healthcare levels. Choosing the right thermometer type is crucial because this impacts the accuracy and safety of the measurement. While infrared thermometers offer advantages in speed, hygiene and patient comfort, contact ones are used for high precision.
Compared to contact ones, contactless infrared thermometers help solve the issues of cross-contamination, discomfort and inaccuracies due to patient movement, and are a considerable time-saving factor. They also eliminate the need for cover changes between uses, reducing the effort required. Despite all these advantages, contact and infrared thermometers are not completely interchangeable; healthcare providers generally need to have both.
The MESI mTABLET Thermometer is a combination of two thermometers in one device: a non-contact infrared forehead thermometer and a contact thermometer. All measurement results are automatically saved, shortening every temperature measurement and preventing errors connected with manual data entry.
A pile of equipment and losing temperature tools are a thing of the past. MESI’s innovation combines two diverse instruments on one ergonomic device. The MESI mTABLET Thermometer features two thermometer types in one, offering effective ways to measure temperature under various circumstances. The MESI mTABLET Thermometer adapts to the needs of the patient, ensuring the highest standards of medical care.
You will also not need any pen, paper, time and concentration to take down and file the measurement results. The digital MESI mTABLET Thermometer is part of the MESI mTABLET diagnostic system, which can connect with your current administration software.
The measurement result is displayed on the screen of the wireless MESI mTABLET, where you can discard it or confirm it to be stored into cloud-based MESI mRECORDS. No need for manual entry, which significantly reduces human error. In case of connectivity, all the measurements will be automatically stored into your EHR.
Digital data filing not only means a considerable time saving at each examination, but also immediate access to the patient’s history. All temperature measurements are easily accessible and presented as a history chart. This is invaluable for monitoring the patient’s status, making informed decisions and adjusting treatment plans as necessary.
The non-contact component of the MESI mTABLET Thermometer is ideal for facilities where large numbers of readings are needed, e.g. at GP offices or hospitals. Here are some of its features and benefits:
The contact thermometer is attached to the infrared one, so it is always at hand when accuracy is essential. Here are its most important features:
The thermometer is part of the MESI mTABLET diagnostic system, which offers a variety of other wireless diagnostic tools: ECG, spirometry, SPO2, Ankle-Brachial Index, Toe-Brachial Index and blood pressure (single-arm, average, dual, dual average). As part of the MESI mTABLET ecosystem, every MESI mTABLET Thermometer comes with a certified medical-grade tablet, where you can immediately view, repeat or discard the measurement.
You can buy the MESI mTABLET Thermometer on its own or as part of the MESI mTABLET Vitals, which also offers heart rate, blood pressure and SpO2, again with no manual writing as all data is saved automatically.
The MESI mTABLET Thermometer is a new chapter in the world of temperature measurement. Combining the strengths of non-contact and contact thermometers, it offers healthcare professionals a highly efficient tool. Furthermore, automatic data saving and easy access to patient history ensure that temperature measurements are not only fast and safe but also impeccably documented, with zero effort or paper required from the user. This digital approach reduces the need for physical resources and contributes to a greener healthcare environment.
Additionally, the MESI mTABLET system enables easy addition of new diagnostic tools, ensuring that your practice can evolve with the latest developments. This flexibility and sustainability make the MESI mTABLET Thermometer a true win for healthcare providers, patients, and the environment.
