10.3.5 Measuring Mode
Predictive Mode
When Mode is set to Predict, the monitor operates in Predictive Mode to provide fast and
accurate temperature measurements.
Quick Predictive Mode
When Mode is set to Quick Predict, the monitor operates in Quick Predictive Mode which is an
oral predictive measurement mode intended for situations where fast temperature measurements
are desired.
Quick Predictive Mode allows clinicians to rapidly identify patients with "normal" body
temperatures. If the patient temperature is outside of the "normal" range, the monitor will
automatically switch into its standard predictive mode to provide a more accurate reading.
Quick Predictive Mode is not available when in Cold Mode.
