Since 1988, Medical Indicators (MII)has specialized in the manufacture of single-use and reusable clinical thermometers under the trade names of NexTemp and TraxIt. Whilst we have see similar thermometers from several manufacturers the Nextemp brand stands out as market leaders for several reasons -
THE NEXTEMP ADVANTAGE

- Shelf life: 5 years from the date of manufacture.
- Safe, non-toxic, environmentally friendly, latex-free.
- Economical: No probe covers, batteries, calibration checks, capital equipment.
- Storage conditions: No special conditions required. Resets automatically if exposed to elevated temperatures during shipment or storage. Best if stored in a cool dry place (86°F / 30°C or below).
NexTemp Thermometers
- Reduces the risk of cross-infection or reinfection. “Throw away the germs.”
- Easily transportable, unbreakable, inexpensive, convenient.
- No Glass
- Latex-Free
- Mercury-Free
- Accurate

Medshop is proud to introduce the Powercut Surgical Instrument series.
- Highest grade German surgical stainless
- TC (tungsten carbide) – represented by the gold handle
- Micro serrations – represented by the black handle
Powercut Surgical Instrument
What does this mean to the user?
TC is a material approximately four times stiffer than steel. As a result surgical instrument made with TC are significantly strong and will stay sharper for long. TC can also be manufactured to a sharper point therefore providing better performance from the first cut.
Micro serrations have a double role -
- The assist with self sharpening of the scissors during normal applications
- The serrations limit instrument slippage – this provides a better surgical performance and helps to maintains the instruments sharpness.
TC is not only found in sugical scissors, it is also beneficial in and various other instruments eg. needle holder (the teeth patterns can be made finer and will last longer when put under pressure against the softer metals contained in needles.
