Abstract
A method for monitoring the body temperature of a user of a wireless telephone includes detecting the body temperature of the user using a sensor disposed in the wireless telephone. A determination is made as to whether the detected temperature is within a predetermined temperature range. In response to determining that the detected temperature is within the predetermined range, an emergency notification is generated.
