# Infant Temperature Stickers Raiing Medical's Smart Baby Thermometer Adheres Under the Arm By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-05-13 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-thermometer References: [betaboston](http://www.betaboston.com/news/2015/04/27/a-temperature-monitor-for-babies-gives-new-parents-peace-of-mind/) & [raiing](http://www.raiing.com/) Trying to get a reading on a baby thermometer can be a challenge for parents, so Raiing Medical developed the iThermonitor as a way to easily monitor and understand a child's wellness. The iThermonitor consists of two parts: a hypoallergenic temporary adhesive patch that is applied under an infant's arm and a smartphone app where the data is sent via Bluetooth. In consultation with the information available from the Thermia database, this [infant temperature device](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ducky-thermometer) supplies parents information about healthy temperature, fevers, symptoms and the appropriate treatments and medications for abnormal temperatures. Since data is sent to the app every four seconds, this sticky patch can be kept on a child so that their temperature can be [monitored during sleep](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/isleepad) without disruption. As well as having uses for young children, the iThermonitor also could prove useful for alerting doctors of [signs of infection in patients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patient-monitoring-technology) who have just gone through surgery or chemotherapy. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Smart Baby Thermometers:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop smart baby thermometers that provide real-time data and insights to parents for better monitoring and understanding of a child's wellness. - **Bluetooth Temperature Monitoring:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create Bluetooth-enabled temperature monitoring devices that can send data to smartphones for convenient and continuous tracking. - **Medical Monitoring Wearables:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design medical monitoring wearables that can be easily adhered to the body for accurate and non-disruptive temperature monitoring. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Healthcare:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate smart baby thermometers and other medical monitoring wearables in the healthcare industry to improve patient monitoring and treatment outcomes. - **Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with technology companies to develop Bluetooth-enabled temperature monitoring devices that can be seamlessly integrated with smartphones and other smart devices. - **Childcare:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Partner with childcare providers to implement smart baby thermometers for enhanced monitoring and wellness management of infants and young children. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Contactless Smartphone Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tempbuddy-smartphone-thermometer.md) - [Baby-Friendly Fever Patches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fever-patch.md) - [Touchscreen Thermometer Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touchscreen-thermometer-apps.md) - [Dual-Function Baby Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-seal.md) - [Temperature-Monitoring Earrings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thermal-earring.md) - [Kinetically Powered Smart Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bcool-smart-thermometer.md) - [Non-Contact Smart Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiitcheck.md) - [Digital LED Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/therm-c.md) - [Toddler Health-Tracking Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/littlebird.md)
