Abstract:
A method of detecting a thermocouple short circuit in a medical device, including obtaining a first temperature measurement from a thermocouple of the medical device; obtaining a second temperature measurement from the thermocouple; calculating a rate of change over time between the first and second temperature measurements; comparing the calculated rate of change over time to a predefined rate of change over time threshold; and generating an indication of a thermocouple short circuit based at least in part on the comparison.
