Controlled Rewarming Mode Messages 

During Controlled Rewarming, there may be two conditions: 

Virtual Set Point (VSP) Temperature 

Core Temperature > 0.8°C and 

<2°C: 

In this case, a message appears with an alarm, but thermoregulation 
continues. 

 

Patient Core Temperature  < Target Temperature and

 

(

Virtual SP-Core 

Temp) >2°C 

This means that the core temperature probe is probably out of the body.  

The following message appears, and an audible alarm sounds: 

 

Pressing MUTE disables the audible tone. The alarm restarts after 

5

 

minutes.
