Glossary
Note: A Note provides additional information to clarify a point in the text.
Important: An Important statement is similar to a Note but used for greater emphasis.
CAUTION: A CAUTION statement is used when the possibility of damage to the
equipment exists.
WARNING: A WARNING statement is used when the possibility of injury to the patient or the
operator exists.
Accuracy: As stated in the performance specifications, the assigned accuracy of the
equipment; including all the system components from the sensors to the display.
Desired Environmental Temperature (DET): The air temperature required to maintain the
infant’s temperature at the patient control temperature (patient control mode).
Air Control Mode: Manual Mode of operation. The incubator air temperature is
maintained at the air control temperature.
Incubator Temperature: The air temperature measured at a point 10 centimeters
(4 inches) above the center of the mattress.
Patient Control Mode: Servo Mode of operation. The incubator changes the
DET to maintain the desired patient skin temperature.
Patient Probe: The Ohio patient temperature probe, model LA003, or the Ohmeda
skin temperature probe, model LA005.
Temperature Rise Time: The time required for the incubator temperature to rise 11°C.
Temperature Equilibrium: The condition where the average incubator temperature does not
vary by more than 0.2°C in a one hour period.
Temperature Variability: The maximum difference between the incubator temperature and
the average incubator temperature during temperature equilibrium.
Temperature Overshoot: The number of degrees by which the maximum incubator
temperature exceeds the average incubator temperature at temperature equilibrium
following a change in the air control temperature (air control mode).
