Why is temperature important?
Current State Today Data is lost every day Manually read & record daily No memory Temperature accuracy typically +/- 1.0c
Why temperature monitoring recommendations changed Interpreting CDC recommendations
Why temperature monitoring recommendations changed Twice daily monitoring only is insufficient and ineffective Reports of temperature abused vaccine brought attention to the issue OIG report confirmed issue and provided independent data Without a continuous temperature monitoring system the likelihood of undiscovered temperature excursions occurring is high
Why should a doctor/provider use a data logger? Continuous temperature information Assuring vaccine potency Protect ALL vaccines including the most vulnerable Problems? You have the information! Because ultimately it makes patient care easier, more efficient and safer
