Intended Use
The Lumiscope Model 2018 Thermometer has the same intended use as the predicate device. It is indicated for use in the measurement of oral and axillary temperature. It is not intended for rectal (rectum) temperature measurement. The device also provides a clock function when not in the temperature mode. The Lumiscope Model 2018 Thermometer is intended for use by adults and may be used by the infant or pediatric patient population for measurements of axillary body temperature or for measurements of oral body temperature if the child is able to hold the thermometer beneath the tongue while his mouth is closed.
Device Story
Digital electronic thermometer; consists of flexible probe, connecting cord, and display unit. Input: thermal signal via transducer. Operation: standard electrical transducer design; converts thermal input to digital temperature reading. Output: LCD temperature display and audible alert. Secondary function: quartz clock. Used in home or clinical settings; operated by adults or caregivers. Provides temperature data to assist in fever monitoring and clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Device meets ASTM E 1112-86 Standard Specification for Electronic Thermometer for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature. Accuracy, precision, and repeatability confirmed. Materials identical to those used in other legally marketed devices.
Technological Characteristics
Electrical transducer design; flexible probe; 1.5V DC button battery; LCD display; slide switches for mode selection; temperature alert beeper. Complies with ASTM E 1112-86. Materials identical to predicate.
Indications for Use
Indicated for oral and axillary temperature measurement in adults, infants, and pediatric patients. Contraindicated for rectal use. Pediatric oral use requires child's ability to hold thermometer under tongue with mouth closed.
Regulatory Classification
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.
