Intended Use

The Digital Thermometer Model V901US is used for the intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature, orally, rectally and under the arm. This thermometer is intended for the adult and pediatric population. The Digital Thermometer Model V901US is a hand- held, non-sterile, reusable clinical thermometer intended for the determination of human temperature in either predictive or Instant mode ( 10-seconds in oral, rectal mode and under the arm mode-predicative temperature ), or standard mode (actual determination of temperature).

Device Story

Hand-held, reusable digital clinical thermometer; measures human body temperature via oral, rectal, or axillary sites. Operates in predictive (instant) mode or standard (actual) mode. User-operated by clinicians or patients (OTC). Device processes thermal sensor input to calculate temperature; provides visual display of results and audible alerts (10 beeps for measurement completion, fever alert). Features include auto-power down after 10 minutes and a password-protected factory mode for calibration verification. Output assists healthcare providers in assessing patient febrile status; aids in clinical decision-making regarding patient health and fever management.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification activities confirmed performance specifications including measurement accuracy in water-bath simulations, battery functionality, auto-power down timing, and audible alert verification. No clinical data presented.

Technological Characteristics

Hand-held electronic thermometer; powered by 1.5V LR41 battery. Sensing via thermistor. Features LCD display with 'Lo'/'Hi' indicators. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Non-sterile. Software: Embedded firmware for temperature calculation, predictive algorithm, and user interface management (beeps, auto-off, fever alert).

Indications for Use

Indicated for intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature in adult and pediatric populations 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.
