Frequently Asked Questions
How do I monitor the temperature within the CoolMed Portable Vaccine Carrier?
Regularly review the carrier’s internal temperature display screen to ensure the required temperature remains consistent throughout transportation to guarantee full product efficacy.
Where can I find the user manual for the portable vaccine carrier?
Find user manuals and specification sheets in PDF form on this page. For any further assistance with the manual or appliance operation, call us at +44 161 772 5666.
Can a portable vaccine carrier be used for long-term storage of medications?
No, CoolMed’s vaccine and medication cases are designed for short-term, temporary medication storage and are not to be used for long, continuous periods of time.
Is there a battery life for the CoolMed Portable Vaccine Carrier when unplugged?
No, if the portable vaccine carrier is not connected to a power source the internal temperature will not hold for an extended period.
What happens to improperly stored vaccines?
If vaccines are not stored correctly within the recommended cold chain temperature range the effectiveness and potency of the vaccine can be affected, ultimately resulting in these being unsafe to be administered to patients.
Using vaccines that have deviated from their required temperature range can be problematic. It may result in patients not receiving adequate protection from the target disease, or encountering adverse reactions from the compromised vaccine.
