Blue Spark Technologies Inc produces TempTraq, an FDA Cleared Class II medical device that gives Healthcare providers the first wireless continuous temperature monitor in the form of a soft, comfortable, disposable patch. TempTraq can significantly improve the way temperature is measured in the clinical environment and provides clinicians with a quicker, easier, and more effective way to measure temperature.

Accuracy and equivalency in three hospital studies:
  • Cleveland Clinic
  • University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center
  • Cincinnati Children’s Hospital

 

In a clinical study conducted by University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center, TempTraq was shown to detect temperature rises earlier than the standard of care by a median of 140.1 minutes (range of 30-180 minutes) with bone marrow transplant patients.

WT thinks this is what earns TempTraq the title “Innovation of the Month”.
