Its operation is based on measuring the natural thermal radiation from the ear canal with a built-in correction algorithm to compensate the influence of ambient temperature using a heated tip. Put the probe of the thermometer into a patient's ear canal, after a self-check, pressing the activation button to start the measurement of proposed infrared radiation. The electrical signal read out from the detector is fed to the circuit for amplification and calculation. The final measured temperature will be appeared on a LED display. It is recommended that adult take the measurement instead when infants and children cannot use the ear thermometer themselves. ## 7.0 Comparison of Technological Characteristics with Predicate Device | Item | Subject Device | Predicate Device<br>(K103800)<br>Braun Thermoscan®<br>PRO 4000) | Comparison Result | |------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Device name | Infrared Ear Thermometer | Infrared Ear Thermometer | -------- | | Models | PT5 | Braun Thermoscan® IRT<br>4000 series and Braun<br>Thermoscan® PRO 4000<br>series Clinical Infrared<br>Ear Thermometer | -------- | | Product code | FLL | FLL | Same | | Regulation<br>number | 21 CFR 880.2910 | 21 CFR 880.2910 | Same | | Manufacturer<br>(legal) | Andon Health Co., Ltd | Kaz, USA Inc | -------- | | Indications for<br>Use | The Infrared Ear<br>thermometer is intended for<br>the intermittent<br>measurement of body<br>temperature from the ear<br>canal on people of all ages<br>except for babies under 3<br>months.
