Plus temperature module
The temperature module uses a thermistor thermometer design and a predictive algorithm to
calculate patient temperatures in the Predictive mode.
WARNING
Patient injury risk. Prior to taking a temperature, instruct the patient
not to bite down on the probe as patient injury and damage to the probe may result.
WARNING
Patient injury risk. Do not exceed the recommended temperature
measurement durations in Direct mode. Continuous measurement durations of 3
minutes at the oral and rectal sites and 5 minutes at the axillary site are
recommended for accurate measurement. Do not continuously measure beyond 10
minutes in any mode.
WARNING
Probe covers are single-use only. Re-use of a probe cover may result
in spread of bacteria and cross-contamination.
WARNING Patient injury risk. Use only Welch Allyn single-use disposable probe
covers. Never take a temperature measurement without a single-use probe cover
securely attached. Failure to use a probe cover can cause patient discomfort from a
heated probe, patient cross-contamination, and inaccurate temperature readings.
WARNING
Patient illness may result from improper use of oral and rectal
temperature probes. Using the incorrect probe may also produce inaccurate
measurements.
•
Use only oral probes, identified by a blue ejection button at the top of the probe, to
take oral and axillary temperatures.
• Use only rectal probes, identified by a red ejection button at the top of the probe, to
take rectal temperatures.
