TriMedika highlights “game-changing” thermometer at MEDICA – Med-Tech Innovation
TriMedika – an medical technology manufacturer providing clinical devices for hospitals worldwide – is present at the ABHI UK Pavilion at MEDICA 2021 showcase its “game-changing” thermometer, designed to prevent cross-infection in hospitals.
Inspired by first-hand experience of the challenges of healthcare and applying fresh thinking to solve simple but critical everyday issues, TriMedika’s vision is to improve patient care globally with technology that safeguards patients and carers.
The company’s flagship product TRITEMP, a medically graded professional non-contact thermometer – CE marked and manufactured in Europe – is a precision engineered tool designed to positively impact patient care and control infection across healthcare globally. Whilst there was a clear need for the product before the pandemic, the COVID-19 crisis has further highlighted the infection risks associated with contact.
Today, TriMedika supplies to hospitals in 21 countries through its distribution partners. The company also has plans to enter the US market in 2022.
The company continues to grow from strength to strength, with a recent invitation to Downing Street to meet the prime minister as part of the London Innovation Showcase. TriMedika is shortlisted for Disruptor of the Year at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards 2021. CEO Dr Roisin Molloy is also in the running for the prestigious EY Entrepreneur of the Year.
COO Julie Brien said: “There have been very few developments within the thermometry industry for many years. So, we set about designing a non-contact infrared thermometer, accurate and robust enough to stand up to use in busy hospital wards. The benefits in terms of infection control and improved patient comfort are significant.”
Over 1000 hospitals globally, including specialist units such as neonatal wards and ICU’s, have switched to TRITEMP. By introducing TRITEMP hospitals can confidently gain many benefits across staffing, workflows and costs.
Paul Benton, managing director, International at ABHI added: “We’re excited that TriMedika have chosen to showcase their innovative solution on the ABHI Pavilion, where they’re joined by some of the most exciting and forward-thinking UK companies across the medical world. We look forward to welcoming them.”
MEDICA is taking place until 18 November 2021 and throughout the show, TriMedika will be located on the ABHI UK Pavilion – Hall 16 / H48.
