Medical IoT devices provider Telli Health has introduced a new contactless connected 4G digital wall-mounted infrared thermometer, which is claimed to be the first of its kind in the world.

The new contactless connected 4G digital thermometer has been designed to safely screen and monitor Covid-19 patients, as well as patients with multiple other diseases.

The Verizon-certified thermometer is said to work on all major cellular carriers in more than 191 countries on over 655 cellular networks across the globe.

Designed to save time, labour and eliminate risk of spreading infection, the 4G thermometer has the potential to rapidly, precisely and reliably read the patient’s temperature without the support of an operator.

The device will read the temperatures within one second and provides a high-temperature alert warning.

Upon the detection of reading, it will be transmitted automatically to the provider’s software without using Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.

Telli Health sales executive Jeff Bartzen said: “This is a huge deal especially for hospital at home COVID patients—our contactless connected 4G thermometer is a revolutionary device to have on the marketplace during the current global pandemic, and it will further streamline patient care.

“Telli Health already has a solid record of accuracy, reliability, and ease of use with our connected care devices, which include plug-and-play, cellular-enabled blood pressure, blood glucose, and pulse oximeter devices, Telli Health is a market leader in 4G connected medical devices.”

Telli Health stated that it is the only medical IoT device company that offers a contactless connected 4G thermometer.

The thermometer is developed to address global demand for contactless, quick, accurate temperature readings available to the healthcare industry and consumer market.
