Temperature Monitoring
Procedures
The Veris monitor system provides for two temperature probes,
allowing for patient temperature measurements from two different
locations. The user is not required to use both probes simultaneously
nor is one probe dominant over the other.

Skin surface temperature monitoring is intended for the detection of
hypothermic and hyperthermic conditions. The skin temperature
sensor is designed for placement on the surface of the skin only.
To insure the proper performance of the temperature accessories,
follow the precautions listed below.
• Skin abrasion and tissue burn hazard! Separate the monitor and
temperature cables from electrocautery systems; keep both
active and ground electrodes of the electrocautery system in
close proximity so that the temperature sensor is outside the
radio-frequency current field.
