Temperature monitoring during transport

We have a transport team that travels with Siemens EPOC.  The card, capillary tubes and EPOC are to be kept between  59-86F.  Anyone with ideas on monitoring and documenting the temperatures, also what type of container do you use to transport the EPOC and supplies.

TIA

We have a transport team that uses Istat's.  The Istat and all the supplies are carried in a camera bag.  In the bag is a thermometer that records the Min/Max range.

Our transport team uses iSTATs. The iSTAT meter itself will not work if outside of temp range. They carry everything in insulted lunch boxes. In the heart of winter the RT will often put the meter and cartridges in the cargo pockets of their flight suit. We do not track actual temp.
