Indications for Use

This device is an electronic clinical thermometer using a themistor probe sensor to detect and measure oral, rectal or axillary temperatures. It is intended for home use on people of all ages.

Device Story

9 second Digital Thermometer (Model BT-S09) measures body temperature via thermistor probe sensor. Metal tip contact with body generates electrical resistance change; microcomputer chip processes signal; temperature displayed on screen. Intended for home use by patients of all ages. Provides rapid temperature readings to assist in health monitoring.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on design and performance characteristics compared to predicate.

Technological Characteristics

Electronic clinical thermometer; thermistor-based sensing; microcomputer chip processing; handheld form factor; battery-powered.

Indications for Use

Indicated for intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature in the home for people of all ages via oral, rectal, or axillary routes.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A clinical electronic thermometer is a device used to measure the body temperature of a patient by means of a transducer coupled with an electronic signal amplification, conditioning, and display unit. The transducer may be in a detachable probe with or without a disposable cover.

Special Controls

(1) Device is not a clinical thermometer with telethermographic functions; (2) Device is not a clinical thermometer with continuous temperature measurement functions; and (3) Appropriate analysis and testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions, as appropriate, of ISO 80601-2-56, “Medical electrical equipment—Part 2-56: Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of clinical thermometers for body temperature measurement,” or ASTM E1965, “Standard Specification for Infrared Thermometers for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1112, “Standard Specification for Electronic Thermometer for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1104, “Standard Specification for Clinical Thermometer Probe Covers and Sheaths”) must validate specifications and performance of the device.

The device is measuring oral, rectal or axillary temperatures by change of resistance in a thermistor located in the tip of the device. When the probe, particular the metal tip is in contact with the body, the thermistor in the probe will generate equivalent electrical resistance, which will be processed by a micro computer chip in the circuitry and then displayed. The 9 second Digital Thermometer is intended for Intended Use: the intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature in the home. It is intended for use on people of all ages. The 9 second Digital Thermometer has the same Technological Characteristics: general design and performance characteristics as the predicate device from Microlife. The main difference is the physical size, shape and weight. The 9 second Digital Thermometer has the same intended use, general design and incorporates similar materials and components, hence should therefore raise no new questions of safety and > effectiveness. This submitter concludes that the 9 second Digital Thermometer is therefore substantially equivalent to the predicate device "Microlife MT3001 (QT1JA1). {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
