Digital Pacifier Thermometer TM-03 is a non-sterile, reusable & battery-operated clinical electronic thermometer for use by medical professional or at home. The TM-03 is intended to measure the oral temperature of infant to children up to 5 years old.

Device Description

Digital Pacifier Thermometer TM-03 is a reusable, battery-operated clinical electronic thermometer, with which a thermistor installed inside the nipple, for use by medical professional or at home. Different from the traditional electronic thermometer, our TM-03 is designed specifically for the measuring the oral temperature of baby or little child. Therefore, our TM-03 is molded as a pacifier. The patient contact portion is the thermometer's nipple which is made of medical silicon rubber. The body of TM-03 is then manufactured by ABS hard plastic. TM-03 utilizes the phenomenon of thermal conductivity changes of our selected NTC thermistor when there are changes of external environment temperature. Whenever the external temperature changed, the resistance of our thermistor changed uniformly. Then, the changes in resistance are converted to the changes of frequency of R-C oscillator circuit. This means TM-03 keep monitoring the frequency of the oscillator and the temperature can be measured accurately.

Study Details

1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for the clinical test. For the independent laboratory test based on ASTME1112, the sample size is not specified.
  • Data Provenance: The general nature of the studies (clinical test and independent laboratory test) suggests prospective testing of the device. The country of origin for the data is not specified, but the applicant is Cotronic Technology Limited from Hong Kong/China.

2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

  • This information is not provided in the document. The studies focus on device accuracy against established standards rather than expert-derived ground truth for diagnostic interpretation.

3. Adjudication method for the test set:

  • Not applicable as the studies relate to temperature measurement accuracy and safety, not diagnostic interpretation requiring adjudication.

4. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

  • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is a clinical electronic thermometer, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool that assists human readers.

5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

  • Yes, the performance tests conducted were standalone, evaluating the device's accuracy and safety specifications directly. The "clinical test" and independent laboratory test assessed the thermometer's ability to measure temperature accurately.

6. The type of ground truth used:

  • The ground truth for the accuracy tests was comparison against established temperature references or standards, as implied by the ASTME1112 standard and the statement "meets the requirement of +/-0.2°F". For safety tests, the ground truth was adherence to international and national standards (e.g., ISO10993, EN60601-1, FCC Part 15, IEC60601-1-2, CPG Sec. 500.450).

7. The sample size for the training set:

  • Not applicable. This device is a traditional electronic thermometer; it does not involve machine learning or AI models that require specific training sets.

8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

  • Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.
