Circumstances
Create a calm and trusting surrounding for the recovery and for a convenient monitoring. Explain everything you do to the person to be monitored.
Make sure that the Bluetooth receiver stays within the range of about 10 m around the person to be monitored in order to have a constant connection and so you can observe the temperature in real time.
At best, the charging station should be located outside of the patients‘ reach. Apply only the degree° temperature monitor to the patient.
