6.8.5 Thermomonitoring
If 2 skin temperature sensors are used, the Thermomonitoring view shows the
continuous measurement and display of a central and a peripheral temperature.
The Views... button is used to switch screen views.
Thermomonitoring can be used for the early detection of cold stress, heat stress, or
infection. Thermomonitoring means the continuous monitoring of the central skin
temperature and the peripheral skin temperature. The difference between the two
temperature values is displayed. The difference can indicate a change in the
temperature of the patient. The diagram below shows thermomonitoring in a patient
with cold stress: the peripheral skin temperature (2) drops before the central skin
temperature (1) and can be the first indication of cold stress.
