How to Manage Vaccine Temperature Excursions
A structured guide to responding to out-of-range fridge temperatures to protect patient safety and prevent medication waste.
Step 1: Immediate Identification
The moment a temperature is recorded outside the safe range, the unit must be marked as compromised. TempLog uses live in-range feedback to ensure staff never miss an excursion.
Step 2: Structured Response Workflow
Following CDC protocols, you must document the duration of the excursion, the maximum/minimum temperature reached, and the actions taken. TempLog guides users through this process step-by-step.
Step 3: Documentation for Manufacturers
To determine if vaccines are still viable, you often need to contact the manufacturer with precise data. Having a digital history of min/max summaries makes this communication accurate and fast.
