Abstract:
A thermal control unit for delivering temperature-controlled fluid to one or more patient therapy devices (e.g. pads, blankets, etc.) that are in contact with a patient is disclosed. The thermal control unit allows multiple patient therapy devices to be fluidly coupled thereto and to individually monitor the temperatures, flow rates, and/or connections/disconnections of the patient therapy devices. A user interface enables a user to designate outlet ports to the therapy devices as active or inactive, and the control unit provides notifications to the user if any of the active ports experience an undesired condition, or if a patient therapy device is connected to an inactive port. The user interface further allows the user to designate one of multiple patient temperature probes as a primary probe. The primary probe is used to control the temperature of the fluid circulating through the control unit.

Claim (Index 4):
The thermal control unit of  claim 2  further comprising:\n a third fluid outlet adapted to fluidly couple to a third fluid supply line; \n a third fluid inlet adapted to fluidly couple to a third fluid return line; and \n wherein the sensing subsystem is further adapted to detect if the third fluid outlet becomes disconnected from the third fluid supply line, and wherein the controller is further adapted to provide a third indication to the user if the third fluid outlet becomes disconnected from the third fluid supply line.
