Intended Use

The NIR is non-sterile non-invasive infrared thermometer intended for the intermittent calculation of human body temperature of people of all ages for home and professional use.

Device Story

Non-invasive infrared thermometer; measures temperature above artery on skin (temple). Input: infrared radiation detected by thermopile sensor; ambient temperature via external thermistor; self-temperature via internal thermistor. Operation: thermopile sensor mounted on reflector to reduce field of view; distance measurement sensor minimizes distance effects; internal/external thermistors provide thermal equilibrium correction. Output: calculated body temperature displayed to user. Used in home and professional settings; operated by patients or clinicians. Output used for clinical decision-making regarding patient health status; provides non-invasive, intermittent temperature monitoring.

Clinical Evidence

Safety and effectiveness established through comparative bench and clinical testing against market-cleared devices. Compliance with ASTM E1965-98, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60825-9, and ISO 14971 confirmed. Clinical and bench tests demonstrated accuracy and effectiveness.

Technological Characteristics

Infrared thermopile sensor; medical grade ABS housing; 3.0V battery powered. Features distance measurement sensor and internal/external thermistors for thermal equilibrium correction. Complies with ASTM E1965-98, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60825-9, and ISO 14971. Non-sterile.

Indications for Use

Indicated for intermittent human body temperature measurement in patients of all ages in home and professional settings. No contraindications reported.

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.

Medisim's NIR and the aforementioned predicate device share the technology as well as the intended use. NIR as well as Exergen's TemporalScanner are intended for the intermittent measurement of human body temperature of people of all ages. NIR device as well as the predicate device measure the temperature of a human by means of a thermopile infrared sensor/s transducer coupled with electronic signal amplification, conditioning, and display unit. Both NIR and meet ASTM E1965-98 Standard for Infrared Thermometers for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature, to the extent that this standard applies to them. For convenience, the various similarities and differences are summarized in the substantial equivalence comparison table. | | NIR | The Predicate | |-------------------------|-----------------------------------|----------------------------------| | Device Name | NIR | TemporalScanner | | Manufacturer | Medisim, Ltd. | Exergen corporation | | 510(k) number | K090386 | K011291 | | Thermometer type | Infrared | Infrared | | Intended use(s) | Measuring human body temperature | Measuring human body temperature | | Measurement<br>Location | Temple | Temple | | Clinical Setting | Home Use | Home Use | | Labeling | Instructions For Use are attached | User Manual is attached | | Sensor Type | Thermopile | Thermopile | | Power<br>requirements | 3.0V battery | 9.0V battery | | Product Material | Medical grade ABS | Medical grade ABS | {2}------------------------------------------------ | | NIR | The Predicate | |----------------------------------|-----------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------| | Measured<br>Temperature<br>range | 22.0 °C to 40.0°C (71.6 °F to 104.0 °F) | 15.5°C to 42.0°C (60.0°F to 107.6°F) | | Storage<br>environment | -20° C to 50° C (-4°F to 122°F) | Ambient temperature: -20.0°C to<br>+50.0°C (-4.0 °F to 122.0 °F) | | Accuracy | Below 0.3°C | ±0.2°C/0.4°F between 37.0°C-39.0°C<br>(98°F to 102 °F) | ## NIR thermometer description: The device is built of one or more infrared thermopile sensors that is/are designed to measure a temperature above the artery on the skin. Each of the sensor/s is mounted on a reflector which is used to reduce the sensor field of view. In order to minimize distance effects on the readouts the device is equipped with a distance measurement sensor. Each of the thermopile/s has its own thermistor which is used for calculating the self temperature of each sensor . In addition there is another external thermistor which is used for measuring the ambient temperature and to asses the thermal condition of the thermal equilibrium of the device and to correct the result according to its value and the difference between the external sensor and the internal termistors readout. Non-Clinical and Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence: The safe and effective performance of the device has been non-clinically and clinically established through comparative testing with market-cleared devices. NIR's safety has been checked and validated by Medisim's internal checks and Israeli Institute of standards. The clinical and bench tests demonstrated its accuracy and effectiveness. NIR thermometer complies with additional voluntary standards: IEC60601-1 (1995) General safety requirements for medical devices IEC 60825-9 (1999) Safety of laser products {3}------------------------------------------------ ISO 14971 (2007) Risk analysis for medical device ## Conclusion: Based on the safety and performance testing and compliance with acceptable voluntary standards, we believe that the NIR Electrical Thermometer is substantially equivalent to its predicate device cited above without raising new safety and/or effectiveness issues. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
