Intended Use

The device is an electronic clinical thermometer using an infrared sensor to detect body temperature from the auditory canal in the neonatal, pediatric and adult population used in the home setting.

Device Story

Infrared ear thermometer; detects natural thermal radiation from tympanic membrane and adjacent auditory canal surfaces. Uses thermopile infrared detector to convert radiation into electrical signals; internal circuitry amplifies and calculates temperature; displays result on LCD. Operated by user in home setting; inserted into outer ear canal; measurement initiated via start button. Provides rapid temperature reading to assist in clinical decision-making regarding patient health status.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Compliance with ASTM E1965, IEC 60601-1, and IEC 60601-1-2 standards demonstrated.

Technological Characteristics

Infrared thermopile detector; electronic circuitry for signal amplification and calculation; LCD display. Complies with ASTM E1965, IEC 60601-1, and IEC 60601-1-2. Handheld form factor.

Indications for Use

Indicated for neonatal, pediatric, and adult populations for body temperature measurement via the auditory canal in a home setting.

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.

{0}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/0/Picture/0 description: The image shows the word "RADIANT" in large, bold, black letters. Above the word "RADIANT" is the word "INNOVATION" in smaller, black letters. Below the word "RADIANT" are four Chinese characters in black ink. Image /page/0/Picture/1 description: The image contains a line of traditional Chinese characters. The characters read from left to right as: 熱映光電股份有限公司. This translates to something similar to "Hot Light Optoelectronics Co., Ltd." in English. The characters are written in a clear, bold font. O N N O KUBO2224 EXHIBIT#1 # Special 510(K) SUMMARY This summary of Special 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR §807.92. The assigned 510(k) number is: FEB 2 7 2003 #### 1. Submitter's Identification: Radiant Innovation Inc., No. 40, Lane 19, Bade Road Hsin-Chu City Taiwan, R.O.C. ### Contact: Mr. Charles Chang Eng. Dep. Manager Date Summary Prepared: Jan 24, 2003 #### 2. Name of the Modification Device: Infrared Ear Thermometer, Models TH1 series #### 3. Current Clearance Device: Radiant Innovation Infrared Ear Thermometer, Models TH8 series. ( FDA# K011059) #### 4. Device Description: The Radiant Innovation Inc., Infrared Ear Thermometer, Models TH1 series are electronic thermometers using an infrared detector (thermopile detector) to detect body temperature from the auditory canal. Its operation is based on measuring the natural thermal radiation emanating from the tympanic membrane and the adjacent surfaces of the patient. To measure ear temperature, the ear thermometer is inserted into a patient's outer ear canal. A start button is pressed to start the measurement through the radiation exchanges. The electrical signal read out from the detector is fed to the circuit for amplification and calculation. The measured temperature then appears on a LCD display. The total operation takes a few seconds. {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Radiant Innovation Inc. The logo is divided into two parts, with the left side featuring the word "RADIANT" in bold, stylized letters, and the word "INNOVATION" above it in smaller letters. Below "RADIANT" are the Chinese characters for "Radiant". The right side of the logo features the company's name in Chinese characters, followed by "RADIANT INNOVATION Inc.," in English. #### 5. Intended Use: The device is an electronic clinical thermometer using an infrared sensor to detect body temperature from the auditory canal in the neonatal, pediatric and adult population used in the home setting. #### 6. Comparison to the Cleared Devices: The RII Infrared Ear Thermometer, Models TH1 series are substantially equivalent to RII's current clearance device: Infrared Ear Thermometer, Models TH8 series, on the principle of operation, scientific technology with the same intended use, technological characteristics and specifications. The only differences between TH8 and TH1 series Infrared Ear Thermometer are the outer appearance and the user's manual which will not significantly change the safety and effectiveness . #### 7. Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows: Compliance to applicable voluntary standards includes ASTM E1965, as well as IEC 60601 -1 and IEC 60601-1-2 requirements. Guidance Documents included the FDA "Guidance On The Content of Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Clinical Electronic Thermometers", " How to Prepare A Special 510(k) ", "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" .. #### 8. Conclusions: The RII Infrared Ear Thermometer, Models TH1 series, have the same intended use and similar characteristics as the cleared device, Model TH8 series. Moreover, bench testing contained in this submission supplied demonstrate that the modification of TH1 do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, the RII Infrared Ear Thermometer, Models TH1 series is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
