Intended Use
The Infrared Ear Thermometer, Model DX-707 is intended for the intermittent measurement of human body temperature in home care environment. It is intended for use on people of all ages.
Device Description
The DX-707 Infrared Ear Thermometer is a hand-held, non-sterile, reusable clinical thermometer using an infrared sensor that measures patient body temperature through the opening of the auditory canal. Its operation is based on measuring the natural thermal radiation emitted from the tympanic membrane and adjacent surfaces. The DX-707 Infrared Ear Thermometer consists mainly of five parts with the associated circuit: (1) IR sensor, (2) Micom IC, (3) LCD module, (4) an ambient temperature sensor (thermistor), and (5) Keys, "I/O", "Measure". The DX-707 thermometer is powered by internal DC 3V battery, size CR2032 and it is supplied with probe cover.

The device description and performance studies focus on standard infrared temperature measurement and comparison to predicate devices, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data processing or interpretation.

No.
A therapeutic device is used to treat a disease or condition, whereas this device is a thermometer used for measurement and diagnosis.

Yes

Explanation: The device measures human body temperature, which is a physiological parameter. While not directly diagnosing a disease, it provides data that can be used by a healthcare professional to identify or monitor a medical condition (e.g., fever), thus serving a diagnostic purpose in a broader sense.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as an IR sensor, Micom IC, LCD module, ambient temperature sensor, keys, and a battery.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The DX-707 Infrared Ear Thermometer measures body temperature by detecting infrared radiation emitted from the ear. This is a direct measurement of a physiological parameter in vivo (within the living body), not an analysis of a specimen in vitro (outside the living body).
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "intermittent measurement of human body temperature," which is a direct physiological measurement.

Therefore, the DX-707 Infrared Ear Thermometer falls under the category of a general medical device, specifically a clinical thermometer, rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

A comparison study and clinical repeatability testing was performed on the following four ages group; 0-3years, 4-10 years, 11-65 years, and >65 years. Approximately 39% of the patients participating in the study were considered febrile. The comparison study demonstrated that the DX-707 Infrared Ear Thermometer measured ear temperature equivalently to the predicate devices in all age groups. The clinical repeatability is statistically and clinically acceptable.
