3.3 Measurement of the body temperature
Applied part type CF
Type: Temperature sensors with thermistor characteristic YSI400
Number: 2
Where: Figure 2: Connection field, connection ports [20] and [27]
Port [20] Multi-purpose channel P2/T2, measurement with PTO catheter and PTO cable
Port [27] ¼ inch jack plug for temperature sensors with jack
Application: see below
The MPR2 can be used to measure and display up to two temperatures. The temperature channels are
type CF and have been classified as protected against defibrillation.
Please note that only the temperature sensors from the following table can be used for temperature
measurement.
The following temperature sensors have been approved for MPR2:
Table 5: Temperature sensors
Specification of the temperature measurement: cf. chapter 11 Technical parameters (Specification)
Recommended accessories: cf. chapter 9 Accessories
The resolution of the temperature measurement is 0.01 °Celsius, and thus is higher than the accuracy
mentioned above. The higher resolution has been provided intentionally to recognise short-time
changes in temperature (without the necessity of having to ensure an absolute accuracy of
0.01 °Celsius).
3.3.1 Preparing the temperature measurement
As soon as the temperature sensor has been connected to one of the connection ports [20] or [27] and is
subjected to a temperature of at least 15.0 °Celsius, the MPR2 will show the room temperature in the
respective temperature channel field [7] of the display.
In this way the function of the temperature sensor can be checked prior to use.
Please observe the instructions for use of the accessories, such as cable, temperature sensor and
catheter. If limitations apply in the permissible measuring range or in the protection against defibrillation,
for example, the said shall have to be adhered to by all means.
Please ensure that the sensor connector is dry and free from impurities.
If the temperature displayed appears to be plausible, you can start monitoring the body temperature of the
patient. It is immaterial to which temperature input the temperature sensors are connected.
After applying the sensors to the measuring point, you have to wait for 2 to 3 minutes until the sensor has
taken up the temperature of the measuring point and it does not change anymore so that the exact
temperature value can be read. Always wait until a constant condition has set in, at which the temperature
no longer rises.
In case of a defective sensor (short circuit or cable cut) no value is displayed, instead the display Sensor?
starts flashing.
