Intended Use
This device is an electronic clinical thermometer using an infrared sensor to detect body temperature from the auditory canal or on the forehead in the neonatal, pediatric and adult population used at home.
Device Description
The easytem duo Forehead/Ear Thermometer is a dual purpose hand held instrument that measures body temperature on the forehead or through the opening of the auditory canal. The forehead operation is based on measuring the temperature on the surface of the forehead while the ear operation measures the natural thermal radiation emitted from the tympanic membrane and adjacent surfaces.

No
The summary describes a standard infrared thermometer and does not mention any AI or ML components or capabilities.

No
The device is an electronic clinical thermometer used to detect body temperature, which is a diagnostic tool, not a therapeutic intervention.

No
The device measures body temperature, which is a physiological parameter, but it does not diagnose a disease or condition. It is used to monitor a vital sign.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "hand held instrument" using an "infrared sensor," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.

No, 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 about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • This Device's Function: This device measures body temperature directly from the body (forehead or ear) using infrared technology. It does not analyze any specimens taken from the body.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a clinical thermometer and not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 880.2910 Clinical electronic thermometer.

(a)
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.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in part 807, subpart E of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 880.9 and the following conditions for exemption:(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.

Device Description: The easytem duo Forehead/Ear Thermometer is a dual purpose hand held instrument that measures body temperature on the forehead or through the opening of the auditory canal. The forehead operation is based on measuring the temperature on the surface of the forehead while the ear operation measures the natural thermal radiation emitted from the tympanic membrane and adjacent surfaces. Intended Use: The easytem duo Ear Thermometer is intended for the intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature in the home. It is intended for use on people of all ages. Technological Characteristics: The eusytem duo Forehead/Ear Thermometer has the same general design and performance characteristics as the predicate devices from Braun, and SAAT. The main difference is the physical size, shape and weight. The easytem duo Forehead/Ear Thermometer has the same intended use, general design and incorporates similar materials and components, hence should therefore raise no new questions of safety and effectiveness. This submitter concludes that the easytem duo Thermometer is therefore substantially equivalent in the 'ear mode' as to the predicate devices "Braun Thermoscan RT3520" and to the "ThermoTek 718F" in the 'forehead mode'.
