The embodiment may include detecting a user body temperature. The embodiment may also include determining if the detected body temperature is within a pre-configured normal temperature range. The embodiment may further include in response to the detected body temperature is outside the pre-configured threshold temperature range, adjusting the body temperature to the pre-configured normal temperature range. The embodiment may also include notifying a user when the detected body temperature reaches pre-configured dangerous body temperature. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A processor-implemented method for self-correcting temperature notification, the method comprising: detecting a user body temperature; determining if the detected body temperature is within a pre-configured normal temperature range; and in response to the detected body temperature being outside the pre-configured normal temperature range, performing temperature regulation assistance using associated temperature regulation devices to adjust the user body temperature to the pre-configured normal temperature range. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: notifying a user when the detected body temperature is within a pre-configured dangerous body temperature; and sending a notification to the user via a mobile application or a desktop application. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: storing primary contacts of the user in a database; and sending a notification to each primary contact when the detected body temperature reaches the pre-configured dangerous body temperature. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: utilizing an electronic system attached to a bed, a chair, a stretcher or a wearable to adjust the body temperature. ### Claim 5 (depends on 3) The method of claim 3, further comprising: notifying an emergency center when each primary contact does not respond within a preconfigured time. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: recommending a necessary action when the detected body temperature is outside the pre-configured normal temperature range, wherein the necessary action is any action that may help increase or decrease the body temperature. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: storing temperature measurements in a database connected to a user electronic health record system. ### Claim 8 A computer system for self-correcting temperature notification, the computer system comprising: one or more processors, one or more computer-readable memories, one or more computer-readable tangible storage media, and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more tangible storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more memories, wherein the computer system is capable of performing a method comprising: detecting a user body temperature; determining if the detected body temperature is within a pre-configured normal temperature range; in response to the detected body temperature is outside the pre-configured normal temperature range, adjusting the user body temperature to the pre-configured normal temperature range; and notifying a user when the detected body temperature reaches pre-configured dangerous body temperature. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The computer system of claim 8, further comprising: sending a notification to the user via a mobile application or a desktop application. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The computer system of claim 8, further comprising: storing primary contacts of the user in a database; and sending a notification to the primary contacts when the detected body temperature reaches the pre-configured dangerous body temperature. ### Claim 11 (depends on 8) The computer system of claim 8, further comprising: utilizing an electronic or battery-operated wiring system attached to a bed, a chair, a stretcher or a wearable to adjust the body temperature. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The computer system of claim 10, further comprising: notifying an emergency center when the primary contacts do not respond within a preconfigured time. ### Claim 13 (depends on 8) The computer system of claim 8, further comprising: recommending a necessary action when the detected body temperature is outside the pre-configured normal temperature range. ### Claim 14 (depends on 8) The computer system of claim 8, further comprising: storing temperature measurements in a database connected to a user electronic health record system. ### Claim 15 A computer program product for self-correcting temperature notification, the computer program product comprising: one or more computer-readable tangible storage media and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more tangible storage media, the program instructions executable by a processor of a computer to perform a method, the method comprising: detecting a user body temperature; determining if the detected body temperature is within a pre-configured normal temperature range; in response to the detected body temperature is outside the pre-configured normal temperature range, adjusting the user body temperature to the pre-configured normal temperature range; and notifying a user when the detected body temperature reaches pre-configured dangerous body temperature. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The computer program product of claim 15, further comprising: sending a notification to the user via a mobile application or a desktop application. ### Claim 17 (depends on 15) The computer program product of claim 15, further comprising: storing primary contacts of the user in a database; and sending a notification to the primary contacts when the detected body temperature reaches the pre-configured dangerous body temperature. ### Claim 18 (depends on 15) The computer program product of claim 15, further comprising: utilizing an electronic or battery-operated wiring system attached to a bed, a chair, a stretcher or a wearable to adjust the body temperature. ### Claim 19 (depends on 17) The computer program product of claim 17, further comprising: notifying an emergency center when the primary contacts do not respond within a preconfigured time. ### Claim 20 (depends on 15) The computer program product of claim 15, further comprising: storing temperature measurements in a database connected to a user electronic health record system.
