Temple Touch Mini Thermometer Wins Family Review Center Award

Revolutionary thermometer wins editor’s choice award in health and beauty category

 

Holly Springs, NC -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/25/2010 -- Temple Touch has done it again! For the third time in three months one of Medisim, Ltds’ Temple Touch thermometers has won an award. The Temple Touch mini thermometer received the January 2010 Family Review Center’s Editor’s Choice Award in the health and beauty category.

The Family Review Center examines a range of products from diaper bags to educational software. Consumers have come to trust the Family Review Center’s recommendations due to their consistent ability to recommend products and services that, according the Family Review Center, “offer ‘WOW moments’ in life”.

The Editor’s Choice Award is for products and services most favored by the Family Review Center’s senior editor.

“This Editor’s Choice Award confirms that experts agree with the reviews from parents and health care professionals who use our products for their ease and accuracy,” said Medisim-USA President John Wilson. “Temple Touch thermometers are on their way to becoming the standard temperature device for parents and health professionals”

Temple Touch thermometers have been recommended by The Child Day Care Association and The People’s Pharmacy® suggested them as a preferred alternative to traditional mercury or digital stick thermometers. They have also received hundreds of positive reviews by “mommy bloggers” nationwide since Temple Touch thermometers deliver clinically accurate core body temperature in only six (6) seconds by gently touching the thermometer to the temple. Because of this sensitivity, Temple Touch is ideal for use on a sleeping infant or child. They are also widely preferred because they do not cross-contaminate germs like many other invasive-style thermometers. Temple Touch is currently sold at Walgreens® and Walmart stores nationwide.

The proprietary technology behind Temple Touch products is so revolutionary that it has formed a new category in the thermometer market– conductive forehead thermometers. The product uses Medisim’s patented R.A.T.E.™ (Rapid, Accurate, Temperature Establishment) technology which provides accurate detection of the core body temperature using conduction. Other temple or forehead thermometers use infrared technology which can be influenced by ambient or skin temperature conditions leading to a loss of accuracy. A second patent was recently awarded covering the use of conduction technology for non-invasive measurement of core body temperature.
