## Indications for Use

The Digital Forehead Thermometer FS-100 is an infrared thermometer intended for the intermittent measurement of human body temperature of people of all ages.

## Device Story

Hand-held, battery-operated infrared thermometer; measures natural thermal infrared radiation emitted from skin surface over temporal artery. Used for intermittent body temperature measurement in patients of all ages. Operated by clinicians or patients in clinical or home settings. Provides temperature reading to user to assist in clinical decision-making regarding patient health status.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on technological characteristics and design comparison to predicate.

## Technological Characteristics

Hand-held, battery-operated infrared thermometer. Sensing principle: detection of natural thermal infrared radiation from the temporal artery. Form factor: portable electronic device. No specific materials or software algorithm class specified.

## 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.

## The Digital Forehead Thermometer FS-100 is a Device Description: hand held, battery operated device that measures the skin temperature of the skin over the temporal artery. Operation is based on measuring the natural thermal infrared radiation emitted from the surface of the skin over the temporal artery. The Digital Forehead Thermometer FS-100 is an Intended Use: infrared thermometer intended for the intermittent measurement of human body temperature of people of all ages. The Digital Forehead Thermometer FS-100 has Technological Characteristics: the same general design and performance characteristics as the predicate device from Exergen Corpporation. The main difference is the physical size, shape and weight. The Digital Forehead Thermometer FS-100 has the same intended use, general design and incorporates similar materials and components, hence should therefore raise no new questions of safety and effectiveness. This submitter concludes that the Digital Forehead Thermometer FS-100 is therefore substantially equivalent to the predicate device from Exergen.
