"Zero contact" continuous temperature monitoring programme contributes to public health emergency management system development.

Since the outbreak of the COV-19 epidemic, it has become particularly urgent to build a more complete, systematic and regulated emergency management system. In addition to fully recognizing the importance of information monitoring and early warning mechanism construction and giving full play to the public's power of group prevention and treatment, it is also necessary to make full use of big data analysis and smart city and village construction to build various kinds of intelligent and major public health emergency monitoring and early warning systems as an integral part of the management system.

Epidemics have been the greatest enemy of mankind since ancient times. Since 2000 alone, we have experienced many epidemics such as SARS, H7N9 influenza, Ebola, Zika virus, Middle East respiratory syndrome, mad cow disease and other epidemics, and our country is also actively carrying out the construction of preventive health work. China established a fever clinic after the SARS epidemic, and research shows that fever clinics can monitor respiratory tract infections in a timely and effective manner, while most infectious diseases have characteristics that cause changes in patients' body temperature; therefore, temperature monitoring has been one of the most widely used methods for early detection of infectious diseases.

Effective screening and isolation of high-risk groups is an effective measure for the prevention and control of epidemics in China. In many communities, isolated persons are required to report their body temperature two or more times a day. For this segment of the population, some of them need to be measured by a staff member or community doctor at home, and after the visit, they need to fill in various forms manually, which not only increases the risk of exposure, but also greatly increases their paperwork.

In the global COV-19 epidemic, temperature monitoring has been used in office buildings, schools, communities, and other places where people gather to screen for possible infection. Practice has found that traditional temperature measurement methods or inefficient, such as mercury thermometer, only one person per unit of time, time-consuming, cumbersome operation, unprofessional operators are also prone to misreading values, repeated use of hidden cross-infection risk; or large errors, such as infrared frontal temperature gun, the body surface temperature is influenced by the environment, can not objectively respond to the subject's body temperature, so the accuracy and stability of the test data can not guarantee. Whether it is a mercury thermometer or an infrared thermometer, there is a need for close or direct contact with the subject, the risk of cross-infection cannot be avoided, and the safety of frontline vaccination personnel is not effectively guaranteed.

With the THOTH wearable continuous temperature monitoring device, the entire temperature monitoring process can be carried out with zero contact between the vaccine and the person being tested. The THOTH wearable continuous temperature monitor is easy to use and monitors body temperature in real time. Simply attach the thin, soft, wearable body temperature sticker to your underarm and the mobile app will display your body temperature in real time. It is easy to put on, takes no more than 20 seconds and can be operated correctly by any person in isolation. High-precision sensor sensing accuracy, body temperature measurement error can be accurate to ±0.1℃. The one-time all-throw design avoids cross-infection, and the data can be uploaded to the centralized temperature monitoring platform in real time through mobile network technology, and timely abnormal warning, the number of centralized monitoring is unlimited. When the monitoring is over, you can view the full historical temperature report and easily keep track of your temperature data. The report can also be shared to facilitate the collection and filling in of temperature data. To improve the efficiency of epidemic prevention, protect people's health and provide a strong guarantee for national epidemic prevention.
