We used a model "tat-2000c smartglow temporalscanner" made by exergen to take the temperature of our 2 month old child.The device kept registering a temperature of 97.1 - 98.0 over two days.On day two we got a rectal thermometer and took the babies temperature and it was registering 100.5 and within the same minute the temporalscanner registered 97.1.100.4 is when new borns are supposed to go to the hospital.Because of this device failing to read properly, we were unaware our child should be going to the hospital instead of bed and put our child at risk of serious injury or death.Fda safety report id # (b)(4).
