Unlike passive skin surface temperature sensors, the 3M™ Bair Hugger™ temperature monitoring system's single-use sensor consists of a thermal insulator adjacent to the skin which is covered by a flex circuit. Once connected to the Bair Hugger temperature monitoring system’s control unit, the flex circuit actively regulates its temperature to create a zone of perfect insulation - a condition where heat loss to the environment is eliminated.
