Chapter 4: Temperature Measurement
Root takes a temperature measurement through the use of a temperature probe. The
temperature probe is designed for use on adult and pediatric patients. Patient temperature
can be measured via an oral/axillary or rectal probe.
Operation - Temperature
Spot Check Mode
Spot Check mode provides a one-time predictive measurement that takes a temperature in
approximately 6 to 15 seconds, before a steady state temperature is achieved. Predictive
measurements reduce the time required for measurement by using algorithms to predict
what the temperature would be if the probe were left in place until steady state is achieved.
Continuous Mode
Continuous mode provides continuous temperature readings through a direct measurement.
Direct measurement is used to continuously read temperatures until it reaches the thermal
steady state (unchanging). The thermal steady state is achieved through an oral or rectal
measurement in approximately 3 minutes and through an axillary measurement in
approximately 5 minutes.
Taking Temperature Measurement
1. Ensure that the correct measurement site is selected before measurement.
Note : If a rectal probe is attached, the Site button will not appear.
Note:
The site selection toggle is disabled once the probe has been placed on the
site. The toggle will be re-enabled once the probe has been returned to the probe
well holder.
