L'invention concerne un dispositif de vérification pour la vérification d'une sonde de mesure, le dispositif de vérification comprenant un appareil médical (10), l'appareil médical (10) comprenant un raccord de sonde de mesure (13), lequel peut être connecté à une sonde de mesure au moyen d'un câble de sonde de mesure (15) pour l'échange de valeurs de mesure de sonde. L'appareil médical (10) comprend un raccord de capteur (12), lequel peut être connecté à une unité de capteur au moyen d'un câble de capteur (14) pour l'échange de valeurs de mesure de capteur, et une unité de vérification (18) pour la vérification de la sonde de mesure est disponible, laquelle présente au moins un algorithme de vérification. L'algorithme de vérification est conçu de façon à déterminer une courbe de vérification après la détection d'au moins une première valeur de mesure de sonde de la sonde de mesure et après la détection d'au moins une première valeur de mesure de capteur de l'unité de capteur. L'invention concerne en plus un procédé pour la vérification d'une sonde de mesure et l'utilisation d'un respirateur pour la vérification d'une sonde de mesure.
