GREIFSWALD and HAMBURG, Germany, 11 June, 2020, PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

- Due to the corona pandemic, hospitals and clinics face the challenge of

maintaining practice without putting patients and staff at increased risk of

infection. Greifswald University Hospital in Germany has implemented health

protection measures using DERMALOG's non-contact fever detection.

With its Fever Detection Camera, DERMALOG has developed a solution that

measures body temperatures fast and accurately when walking by and can

significantly reduce the risk of infection spreading in many areas. Greifswald

University Hospital has chosen the Hamburg-based company's system as part of

its hygiene concept.

At the hospital's entrance, the staff can make the contactless fever check by

DERMALOG. The company's system measures body temperature in real-time by

scanning people's faces using state-of-the-art sensor technology. If an

increased temperature is detected, the system displays an alert message. High

accuracy, even from a distance of up to 2 meters, is another advantage of the

camera. As an option, DERMALOG's temperature check includes automated mask

detection. If a person enters a medical center or practice without a face mask,

the system displays a message informing the person that a mask is mandatory.

"Fever detection is an integral part of our hygiene concept and reduces the

risk of infection among our employees," says Professor Nils-Olaf Hübner, head

of the hospital's central hygiene department.

Other hospitals and care facilities have implemented the DERMALOG thermal

camera as part of their health protection measures. The fever detection of the

Hamburg-based company is already being used in more than 60 countries. The

system also protects retail stores, offices, manufacturing halls, sports

grounds, event locations and hotels.
