A method and system of Continual Temperature Monitoring of a patient
pre-surgical, intra-surgical, and post-surgical by multiple, wireless,
temperature sensors that transmit low-power radio frequencies to a
monitor capable of receiving signals of temperature data, wherein the
monitor interfaces with conventional PC platforms having specifically
designed software, and the multiple wireless sensors are of two types:
1.) a capsule shaped sensor which can be ingested or inserted rectally
which transmits core body temperature (CBT); 2.) a dermal patch which
transmits external body temperature, and the PC software allows the user
to set upper and lower limits for each sensor transmitter placed in or on
a patient which will activate a notification method selected by the user
if these limits are exceeded or subceeded, and the PC software has file
transfer protocol (FTP) allowing the user with an internet connection
from any location worldwide to access a secure, password protected
intranet or internet website and monitor, in real-time, the temperature
data of a patient.
