Thermometry
(BPM300 Only)
The BPM300 model can perform oral or axillary
temperature measurements either in Single (Predictive)
mode or in Continuous mode. It can also perform rectal
temperature measurements in Continuous mode.
Two different temperature probes are available: a blue
probe for oral and axillary measurements and a red
probe for rectal measurements. The BpTRU
automatically recognizes which probe is attached and
adjusts its functions accordingly.
For oral or axillary measurements, refer to “Oral or
Axillary Measurements” on page 25.
For rectal measurements, refer to “Rectal
Measurements” on page 29.
If the low-battery indictor appears, a maximum of 20
single temperature measurements may be taken before
the BpTRU prevents further operation. Plug the BpTRU
into a wall outlet to charge the battery. Note that it is still
possible to perform measurements while the battery is
charging.
Oral or Axillary Measurements
This section describes the use of the BPM in making Oral
or Axillary measurements.
Prepare the Probe
Use only approved BpTRU Disposable Temperature
Probe Sheaths with the BpTRU. Use of a sheath from
another manufacturer may result in error messages or
erroneous results. Sheaths are single-use only.
