LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator Operating Instructions
How Temperature Monitoring Works
The temperature probe contains a thermistor which converts temperature to electrical
resistance. The LIFEPAK 15 monitor/defibrillator measures the resistance and converts it into
degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit. The probe accuracy is ±0.1°C.
Note:
Celsius or Fahrenheit reporting may be selected in Setup mode. For more information, see
the
LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator Setup Options
provided with your device.
The temperature area of the home screen is blank until a temperature value between 24.8°
and 45.2°C (76.6° and 113.4°F) is detected. When a temperature value in this range is detected,
the value is automatically displayed.
After a valid body temperature between 31° and 41°C (87.8° and105.8°F) is detected, the device
monitors the temperature value for possible sensor dislodgement or disconnection. If the device
detects a temperature outside of the valid body temperature range, the
TEMP: CHECK SENSOR
message appears. The following table shows the screen messages and temperature values that
are displayed for each temperature range.

The temperature monitor performs an accuracy check each time it is turned on, and periodically
while monitoring temperature. If the temperature accuracy check fails, the message
TEMP:

is displayed, and the temperature value is "XXX".
Temperature Monitoring Equipment
The following accessories are required for temperature monitoring:
•
Temperature adapter cable
•
Measurement Specialties 4400 Series disposable temperature probe. You can use the
following probe types with the LIFEPAK 15 monitor/defibrillator:
– Esophageal/rectal
– Foley catheter
– Skin (Note: Measurement Specialties skin temperature probe 4499HD is approved for use
with the LIFEPAK 15 monitor/defibrillator. Do not use Measurement Specialties part
number 4499.)
