More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on basic temperature sensing technology (thermistors) and its use as a replacement part for existing incubators and warmers. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the provided text.

No
The device is a temperature probe that provides feedback to maintain pre-selected temperature settings in infant incubators and warmers, which are therapeutic devices themselves. The probe is a diagnostic or monitoring component, not itself treating a condition.

No

The device is a temperature probe used to maintain pre-selected temperature settings in infant incubators and warmers, which is a monitoring/therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It provides feedback, but it doesn't interpret physiological signals to identify the presence or absence of a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the probes include thermistors, which are hardware components used for temperature sensing. The device is a physical probe, not software.

Based on the provided information, the Tarry Medical Temperature Probes are not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to measure skin or air temperature to maintain pre-selected temperature settings in infant radiant warmers and incubators. This is a physiological measurement taken directly from or near the patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue).
  • Device Description: The description reinforces the use as replacement temperature sensing probes for medical equipment used for patient care.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with IVD devices.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Tarry Medical Temperature Probes are used for direct physiological monitoring and environmental control for infants.

Dear Mr. Azary:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting vour device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Page 2 - Mr. Azary

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
