## Indications for Use

The device measures the human body temperature from oral, axillary and rectal. The device is reusable and intended for clinical or home use on people of all ages.

## Device Story

Clinical Electronic Thermometer; reusable device for oral, axillary, or rectal temperature measurement. Used in clinical or home settings by patients or healthcare providers. Device captures thermal signals; processes data to determine body temperature; displays result for user. Provides objective temperature readings to assist in clinical decision-making and patient monitoring.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data; controlled human clinical studies were not conducted. Substantial equivalence based on bench testing and adherence to recognized standards.

## Technological Characteristics

Electronic thermometer; reusable; conforms to ASTM E1112, IEC 60601-1, and IEC 60601-1-2. Sensing principle based on electronic temperature measurement.

## 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

- Digital Thermometer classic type and flexible type ([K023711](/device/K023711.md))

# 6. Comparison to Predicate Devices:

The Clinical Electronic Thermometer is substantial equivalence to Acute Ideas' Digita! Thermometer Classic type and Flexible type.

# 7. Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows:

In terms of physical requirements and operating parameters, the Clinical Electronic Thermometer conforms to ASTM E1112, "Standard Specification for Electronic Thermometer for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature", as well as IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 requirements.

#### 8. Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed:

Controlled human clinical studies were not conducted using the Clinical Electronic Thermometer and predicate devices.

#### 9. Conclusions:

The Clinical Electronic Thermometer has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as predicate devices. Moreover, any differences in their technological characteristics that do exist would not have a significant effect on the safety or effectiveness of the device. Thus, the Clinical Electronic Thermometer is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Dear Mr Wan:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.
