Cheryl: I think maybe the monitoring strip could be smaller as it can be fiddly to get it in the correct position and maybe a mark on the outside of the strip so you can see where the sensor is being positioned. Nuromol Dual Action Pain Relief 200/500mg tablets. Contains ibuprofen & paracetamol. For pain relief not relieved by ibuprofen or paracetamol individually. The Nurofen FeverSmart Temperature Monitor is a wearable real-time temperature sensor for small children and babies, which adheres to the child’s skin under the armpit and provides real time measurements of temperature to a companion smartphone, via a base/relay station.

Natalie: This product does stand out, it is different and fit for purpose but personally I wouldn't choose it because of the price. What changes would you make to this product? Power is provided by the 3xAAA batteries in series at 4.5V, and is stepped down to a lower voltage (likely 3.0V) by the linear regulator U1, a very simple and low power 1 approach. The matching network C5/C15 tunes the antenna for the application. A switched coaxial connector (purple) lies within the signal path, and disconnects the antenna when a test pin is connected during test/programming, so that the RF performance can be tested. When tuning the antenna, this connector can be placed in reverse orientation, so the bluetooth IC is disconnected and the antenna connected directly to a network analyser. While Helen was wearing the monitor, it fell off a couple of times. That said, she was being very active and I subsequently discovered that Nurofen recommends children wear a light layer of clothing when wearing the monitor. This, Nurofen claims, should help keep it in place.I must also add the app has been very easy to use. It’s worth noting that the app stores your records so you can, if necessary, show them to your GP so they can see exactly what’s happened to you / your child’s temperature. In summary The key and FCC ID are printed on the underside. Notably, the internal photos filed with the FCC show a slightly different PCB layout. The silkscreen indicates the design was released on 29th of April 2016, and “Vivalink” is the name of the company from which Nurofen licensed the design. I’m John Adams and welcome to my award-winning blog. Since 2011 I’ve been the main carer for my two daughters and run the household while my wife has worked full-time. This blog tells our story. Follow this link to find out more about us. Search for: Search Let’s Connect! The FeverSmart has a temperature range of 35–42°C and the manufacturer claims it's accurate to ±0.2°C. We put this to the test in our labs by measuring body temperature under the arm of an adult using a reference thermometer with a known accuracy. Body temperature using the FeverSmart was measured three times and the average taken.

When we tested this clever little gadget for ourselves (one of our babies most conveniently having a temperature at the time), we found it straightforward and easy to use. It didn’t distract the baby at all while the silicone patch was attached to them. And it was good to know that we could use it from birth onwards. Place the base station within 1.5m of the monitor to boost the Bluetooth signal from monitor to phone for a wireless range up to 40m. The sensor electronics are mounted on a rigid-flex PCB, allowing the sensor to provide a more comfortable curved fit. This method of PCB construction is one of the most expensive methods, but a pure flexible PCB would likely put excess stress on the solder joints and lead to failure. To further reinforce the rigid sections, a thin metal sheet is adhered to the underside of the PCB. The ground plane used in the flexible sections is hatched for flexibility. Once the app is set up, the FeverSmart is easy to use. It's all controlled via the app and the instructions are fairly comprehensive.The FeverSmart took a few minutes to warm up after being attached to her body. Once in place and warmed up, it worked very well and, sure enough, Helen was reassured knowing I was keeping an eye on her temperature. I decided to give it a go myself. It was so unobtrusive I completely forgot I was wearing it. During my test, it did everything I expected and confirmed I was a healthy temperature. I remember being a child and my mother placing a glass thermometer full of mercury in my mouth. I would sit there, thermometer loosely held between my teeth, terrified of breaking the thing knowing the contents were toxic. Lesley: It doesn’t particularly make my life easier as I have no need for this day-to-day. That being said, if you have a child with medical needs, I can absolutely understand the need for constant monitoring. It would also be useful after injections. Needless to say, I don’t have babies, but I do have two young daughters; Izzy aged five and Helen nine. I was given an introduction to the FeverSmart by the Nurofen team at an event in, of all places, Hamley’s toy store in London.

The through hole pads are for a full size 2.54mm pitch debug header, which is used during development. Test points TP5-TP10 would be used for programming during production, using TIs “cJTAG” interface. This is in contrast to the SWD interface that is more common when using ARM Cortex processors, but the total number of pins are approximately the same. Test point TP11-TP13 are likely for a UART used for both production test and for Direct Test Mode (DTM) in Bluetooth SIG qualification testing. Sensor I’m keeping the FeverSmart safe. The next time one of the children complains of being ill I would certainly use the monitor to gauge what their temperature was doing. It is a clever concept and while I think older children would be reassured knowing mum and dad were monitoring their temperature, I think it probably is best used with infants. When my brothers were born several years later, their temperature was taken using a thin bit of plastic placed on the forehead. When my kids were born, we had progressed to using digital thermometers and we’ve worked through a variety of products that you place under the arm, in the ear or mouth.
