The device description details a simple electronic thermometer with a sensor, PCB, and LCD. There is no mention of AI or ML capabilities, and the device is explicitly stated as "non-predictive."
No
The device is strictly for measuring human body temperature and does not provide any therapeutic function or treatment.
No
Explanation: A diagnostic device is used to identify the nature or cause of a disease or condition. This device is a clinical thermometer intended to measure human body temperature, which is a physiological measurement, not a diagnostic one. While temperature can be a symptom, measuring it alone does not diagnose a condition.
No
The device description explicitly details physical components like an electronic sensor, metal probe, PCB, Liquid Crystal Display, and plastic housing, indicating it is a hardware device with embedded software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that this device "precisely measure human body temperature." It measures temperature directly from the body (oral, axillary, rectal).
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing any biological specimens. The device interacts directly with the patient's body.
Therefore, this digital clinical thermometer falls under the category of a medical device, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
For all variant Thermometers the intended use is as medical device supplied by internal power and intended to precisely measure human body temperature. It can be used in the measurement of oral, axillary and rectal temperature. They are used alone for human beings at all ages, especially professional medical practitioners, to diagnosis or observe human states of health. All kinds of Actherm Digital Clinical Thermometer help to detect and to make accurate judgements of states of health, protect user safety and public health.
All Digital Clinical Thermometers are intended to precisely measure human body temperature. The Thermometers can be used in the measurement of oral, axillary and rectal temperature.

Device Description
The Classic/Hypothermia Digital Clinical Thermometer consists of an electronically sensor which is located in a metal probe and is connected with a PCB and a Liquid Crystal Display all situated in a pen-like plastic housing. This structure is used for all kind of Thermometer mentioned in this description.
Hypothermia Thermometer have a greater measuring range so that they can be used as device for under cooled person temperature monitoring.
A flexible probe tip is provided by the Flexible Digital Clinical Thermometer that makes the measuring of the temperature more comfortable and safer.
With the patented 10-Second Digital Clinical Thermometer every user is able to receive the result of the measurement in a very quick time. The Express Models also operates with the vame efficient reliability and accuracy like the other Thermometer.
Due to a special integrated sensor in the Left-Right Handed Digital Clinical Thermometer display can easily be read whether the Thermometer is held in the right or the left hand. Especially for left-handed people it makes the measuring result read off more pleasant.
The Basal Digital Clinical Thermometer have a fourth digit on the display, because the measurement of this Thermometer is even more accurate compared with normal Thermometer. This precisely measuring method can be used to monitor and interpreting basal temperature changes.
The Lightweight-Probe Digital Clinical Thermometer consists of a flexible probe, connection cord and a display unit embedded in a round housing.
Variants Descriptions: "+" or Hypothermia, Express, Dual scale, Backlight, LR, following with the model numbers indicates different measuring range, different measuring time, scale switchable, with backlight with Left-Right Handed function.
For all Thermometers is essential, that they consist of a temperature sensor embedded in a special designed metal probe, which could be flexible or inelastic. This sensor is connected with the IC unit, which is connected with a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to display the measured temperature. All parts are situated in a pen-like plastic housing. During measuring, only the maximum measured value is displayed on LCD window and all devices are non-predictive.

`omparison to Predicate Devices
The Classic/Hypothermia, Flexible, 10-Second, Left-Right Handed and the Basal
Digital Clinical Thermometer are substantial equivalent to the Predicate Devices Actherm Digital Clinical Thermometer. All new devices use the same kind of technology and have the same design as the predicate devices. (Exception is Model ACT3230 Express which has a new, slightly changed design.) All devices are only supported by a new Model feature in comparison to the redicate devices to increase the device performances. I.e. the Basal Digital Thermometer has poligher accuracy. The material, chemical composition and the energy source remains the used Predicate Devices.
The Lightweight-Probe Digital Clinical Thermometer is substantial equivalent to the Predicate Device Lumiscope Model 2018 Thermometer (K954792). Only the design and the used technology are adapted to the Actherm Inc. corporate policy. The material and the chemical commonition remains the same as the used Predicate Devices.
Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed Determination of Substantial Equivalence is as follows:
Compliance to applicable voluntary standards includes ASTM E1112-00, EN 12470-3 as well as IEC 60601-1, IEC 606001-1-2 and ISO 10993-1 requirements.
Guidance Documents included the "FDA Guidance on the Content of the Premarket Notification 510 (k) Submissions for Clinical Electronic Thermometers".
Jonclusion
Classic/Hypothermia Digital Clinical Thermometer, The Flexible Digital Clinical Thermometer, 10-Second Digital Clinical Thermometer, Left-Right Handed Digital Clinical Thermometer, Basal Digital Clinical Thermometer and the Lightweight-Probe Digital Clinical Thermometer with all corresponding Models have the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as the cleared devices of Actherm Inc. Digital Clinical Thermometer. Moreover, verification and validation tests contained in this submission clearly demonstrate that any differences in their characteristics do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Furthermore, those engineering differences do not affect the intended use or alter the fundamental scientific technology of the cleared devices of Actherm Inc. Digital Clinical Thermometer.
Thus, the Classic/Hypothermia Digital Clinical Thermometer, Flexible Digital Clinical Thermometer, 10-Second Digital Clinical Thermometer, Left-Right Handed Digital Clinical Thermometer, Basal Digital Clinical Thermometer, and the Lightweight-Probe Digital Clinical Thermometer with all corresponding Models are substantially equivalent to the Predicate Devices.
