13 Temperature

Overview

You can simultaneously measure and monitor temperature of two sites by using one of the
hemodynamic multiparameter modules E-PSMW or E-PSMPW.
As a measuring probe use only GE Healthcare temperature probes or defibrillator-proof
YSI 400 series probes. You can measure, for example, esophageal, nasopharyngeal, rectal, and
skin temperature.
NOTE: Monitoring of perioperative body temperature is recommended when inducing
hypothermia or if unexpected temperature changes occur.

Module description

Temperature measurement is included in the hemodynamic multiparameter modules
E-PSMW and E-PSMPW. With a dual temperature adapter cable you get a two-channel
measurement.
NOTE: Do not use identical modules in the same monitoring system simultaneously. To monitor
temperature, select E-PSMW or E-PSMPW module.
