Abstract
A device detects a discontinuity in the communication of a sensor with a patient by detecting separation of the sensor from the patient. An alarm responds to the detected separation of the sensor from the patient to signal the discontinuity in the sensor operation. The device is particularly useful with a patient warming device which is responsive to the patient's temperature as sensed by the sensor for controlling the heat applied to the patient.
