The CorTemp® system is a perfect tool for detecting elevated CBT in sports, occupational safety, fire fighting, animal science, military as well as many other types of field and laboratory applications. The system is non-invasive, safe and an accurate approach in assessing a rise in core body temp before it gets to a critical level.  It is also highly effective in determining the effectiveness of cooling devices.

 

Notably, research indicates that external methods of measuring core temp are not valid in hot exercising environments. There are varying degrees of discrepancy when comparing core temp verses other methods i.e. tympanic, temporal, skin, etc.  The CorTemp™ System is comparable in accuracy but more non-invasive when compared to rectal and esophageal measurement devices.

 

The CorTemp® Recorder may be worn by an individual (have personal visual and audible alarms) for continuous monitoring or can be used to monitor multiple subjects on a random basis….. (Up to 99 subjects can be monitored with one CT unit).  We also offer long range RF capabilities which allow you to monitoring multiple subjects within a 300 ft. line of sight distance from a PC or laptop.

 

Here are some recent media stories on CorTemp®.
