Blood temperature monitoring can function when C.O. measurement is not taken. The blood

pulmonary artery.

The blood temperature alarm function will not work during the C.O. measurement. When the

measurement ends, the function will automatically resume.

The current blood temperature is displayed in the C.O. parameter area.
