Measurement Accuracy (Specific ranges per ASTM E1965-98 and ISO 80601-2-56)$±0.2°C :35.0°C ~42.0°C$, $± 0.3°C: 32.0°C 34.9°C, 42.1°C43.0°C$ (These values are stated as meeting the standard requirements, implying they are the device's performance within the acceptable limits of the standards.)

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • Sample Size for the test set: 150 subjects.
    • 50 subjects: one month to one year old
    • 50 subjects: one year to five years old
    • 50 subjects: over 5 years old
  • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin of the data. It mentions the manufacturer is in Shenzhen, China, but this doesn't confirm the location of the clinical study. The study is described as a "clinical investigation," which typically implies prospective data collection.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set. It only mentions a "clinical study" was conducted, and the ground truth would typically be established by a reference thermometer or standard clinical measurement methods.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

The document does not specify any adjudication method for the test set.

5. 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

This device is an infrared thermometer, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool typically assessed with MRMC studies involving human readers. Therefore, no MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done and this question is not applicable.

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

Yes, a standalone study (clinical study of the device itself) was done. The entire Section 8, "Clinical Study," describes this. The device performance (clinical bias and clinical repeatability) was measured directly.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

The ground truth for the clinical study would have been established by a reference thermometer or standard clinical measurement methods as per the requirements of ASTM E1965-98 (Reapproved 2016). The document does not explicitly state the type of reference standard used, but for thermometer accuracy studies, it typically involves comparing readings against highly accurate clinical reference thermometers.

8. The sample size for the training set

The document does not provide information regarding a separate training set or its sample size. The description of the study focuses solely on the clinical validation (test set).

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

As no training set is mentioned, information on how its ground truth was established is not available in the document.
