Temperature selection of the under-pad heating device
Heat is conducted to the patient The temperature selection of the under-pad heating depends on several factors, e.g.: •
Age and maturity of the patient.
•
Weight.
•
Does the patient suffer from Hypothermia / Hyperthermia?
•
Are vital functions impaired?
•
Which accompanying therapies are applied?
•
Is the patient clothed or unclothed?
For a mature unclothed infant a bassinet temperature of approx. 36.5°C should be selected.
Heat is withdrawn from the patient
For a pre-term neonate a temperature of approx. 37° to 37.5°C is recommendable. For clothed infants the bassinet temperature can be selected 0.5 to 1°C lower. For temperature selection it must be considered that the temperature of the gel pad has a direct influence on the patient (thermal conduction). When the pad temperature is higher than the patient's temperature, heat is supplied to the patient.
Temperature balance
When on the other hand the pad temperature is lower than the patient's temperature, heat may be withdrawn from the patient!
The patient's temperature must be checked in regular intervals or monitored. When the under-pad heating device is switched off, the gel pad may cause a reduction of the patient's temperature. When nevertheless the warming bed shall be used with switched off under-pad heating device, for insulation purposes a foam pad or woollen nappy, at least 2 cm thick, must be placed between patient and pad! In case of ambient temperature above 30°C and a temperature selection of 30°C a high temperature alarm may be released. In that case increase the temperature selection to 32°C or switch off the under-pad heating device.

≡ LT-alarm 4.)
Automatic alarm pause caused by a logical action of the user (e. g. temperature adjustment).
5.)
When alarms are paused repeatedly there is a permanent fault which must be removed. In such cases the heating is cut off automatically and the audio alarm can no longer be paused. Switch off the under-pad heating with key (3.4) and switch it on again when the fault has been removed.
6.)
At an ambient temperature above 30°C and a temperature selection of 30°C a high temperature alarm may be released. In that case increase the temperature selection to 32°C or switch off the under-pad heating device. When the under-pad heating device is switched off, place a foam pad at least 2 cm thick or a woollen blanket between patient and gel pad in order to avoid that heat is withdrawn from the patient by the cooling gel pad.
