Hospitais Brasil Magazine: No More Difficulties When Measuring your Child’s Fever!  

Solution designed for parents who need quick and reliable answers in a non-invasive way arrives in Brazil.  

Anyone who is a parent knows how difficult it is to see a sick child. And along with many illnesses present in childhood, such as flu and viruses, comes the much-feared sign that the body is not doing well: fever! The body’s defense mechanism, fever is a symptom that indicates the body is working to fight an infection.  

Anyone who has ever tried to take the temperature of a pouty, cunning, and unwell child knows how difficult it is. However, to restore the immune system, it is important to monitor fever, especially in babies and children, who are more sensitive and subject to complications due to increased temperature.  

Designed to make the fever measurement process more efficient and comfortable, without disturbing babies and children, the TAT-2000C temporal artery thermometer arrives in Brazil. Developed by Exergen, a leader in non-invasive temperature measurement technologies, the product is designed specifically for home use and offers simple and effective monitoring.  

The main difference of the TAT-2000C is the ease of use provided by the temporal artery measurement methodology. Simply slide the sensor across your forehead, and in just 3 seconds, the temperature is displayed on the display. Its ergonomic and intuitive design guarantees quick and reliable responses, storing the last 8 readings, which allows you to easily monitor the progression of the fever.  

The simplicity of handling significantly reduces the time needed for measurement, being a great ally for parents when their baby or child is sleeping. Another feature created to make nighttime easier for parents and little ones is the illuminated display, which allows you to check the temperature even in dark environments.  

In critical situations, such as when treating children with cancer, fever without immediate care can have serious consequences. In these cases, the TAT-2000C also proves to be an important ally of Hora Dourada, an initiative that aims to improve the quality of life of children and adolescents undergoing chemotherapy oncology treatment.  

Discover innovative technology!   

The thermometer uses infrared technology to non-invasively and extremely accurately measure the temperature of the blood flowing through the temporal artery in the forehead, located just 2 mm below the skin. Its sensor measures the temperature 1,000 times per second, ensuring that the highest temperature found is always recorded. Providing accurate and consistent readings, temporal arterial technology is more comfortable compared to traditional methods.  

Pediatricians and nurses recommend the TAT-2000C for home use because of its accuracy and ease of use. With more than 2 billion temperature measurements taken each year in the United States alone, Exergen temporal artery thermometers are preferred in hospitals and professional care facilities.  

With results supported by more than 100 international and independent clinical studies that attest to its reliability and effectiveness, the TAT-2000C thermometer is approved by the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA). Now available on the market for R$300.00, with the option to pay in installments via credit card, the product can be purchased via the website https://loja.cnph.com.br/.
