Holding BCT at Normal Temperature
The operator can continue the treatment. TECOTHERM NEO will automatically
continue to hold neonate at the selected BCT 37°C or at a modified temperature.

Having in mind the PCLCS in this
treatment mode 1
Along all treatment phases the Control Board is permanently - every 2 seconds -
analysing temperatures and temperature differences. It instructs the central cooling unit
to cool or warm the circulating fluid depending on the results of this analysis. The
circulating fluid then extracts or transfers thermal energy from/ to the patient.
Circulation is monitored by the Control board.
All temperatures / time dates are recorded/ logged and can be read out/ transferred to
an USB stick, see section 7.3 for the USB port.
NOTE: All parameters can be changed from set position at ANY TIME should the need
arise. Changes will be stored on the TECOTHERM NEO and can be seen on later
analysis
