Nurses Choose Exergen TemporalScanner(TM) Thermometer as 'Most Valuable
Product' in Annual Industry Survey

WATERTOWN, Mass., July 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Exergen Corporation's patented
TemporalScanner(TM) Thermometer was selected by nurses as the 2009 Most
Valuable Product in the annual survey by Therapy Times, the only all-inclusive
community Web site for therapeutic professionals in the healthcare industry.
Hundreds of nurses voted for the TemporalScanner during three weeks of online
balloting, from June 26 - July 17. The results were posted July 20.

"We developed the TemporalScanner with the nurse in mind. It's a great
validation of our efforts to be honored this way," said Francesco Pompei,
Ph.D. and Exergen CEO. "We do know that the TemporalScanner is used in half
of hospitals and a third of pediatricians' offices in the U.S."

From hundreds of nominations, Therapy Times compiled a slate of products used
in the therapeutic fields of physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech
language pathology/audiology, nutrition, respiratory therapy, musical therapy
and nursing. Professionals in each therapeutic area selected the products
they found most useful in day-to-day practice.

Exergen's infrared temporal artery thermometer is the most accurate and least
invasive product on the market and provides temperature readings in just two
seconds. With a gentle stroke of the forehead the instrument captures the
naturally emitted heat from the skin over the temporal artery.

Exergen Corporation is recognized worldwide as an innovator and leading
manufacturer of patented infrared thermometers, scanners, sensors and
controls. Its products are used in a wide variety of industrial and medical
applications for both professionals and consumers. For additional
