System comprises multi-channel electronic temperature monitor (T-Box™) and single-use thermocouple-based temperature probes (T-Probe™). Device provides real-time temperature feedback to clinicians during procedures. Used in clinical settings to assist in monitoring thermal conditions; output allows clinicians to track tissue temperature, facilitating informed clinical decision-making during thermal-based interventions. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. ## Technological Characteristics System consists of a multi-channel electronic temperature monitor (T-Box™) and single-use thermocouple-based temperature probes (T-Probe™). Materials are biocompatible and previously cleared in other devices. ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - Luxtron Multichannel 2000 Fluoroptic Thermometer ([K841105](/device/K841105.md)) - Endocare Electronic Thermometer System ([K961365](/device/K961365.md)) - URI Therm-X Model TX-100 Multichannel Thermocouple Thermometry System ([K843381](/device/K843381.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. {3}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 – Mr. Kim Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
