More Information

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

No
The device is a thermometer used for detecting body temperature, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. It does not treat or prevent any condition.

No

Explanation: A thermometer measures a physiological parameter (temperature) but does not diagnose a specific disease or condition. While an abnormal temperature can be a symptom, the device itself simply provides a measurement, not a diagnosis. Its intended use is to "detect human body temperature", not to diagnose.

No

The device description explicitly states it uses an "infrared sensor" and "infrared technology" to measure temperature, indicating it is a hardware device with embedded software, not a standalone software-only device.

Based on the provided information, the U-RIGHT TD-1240 Thermometer is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to detect human body temperature from the surface of the skin using an infrared sensor. This is a direct measurement of a physiological parameter (temperature) on the body.
  • Device Description: It measures infrared energy emitted from the skin surface. This is a non-invasive measurement taken externally.
  • Lack of In Vitro Testing: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the body to provide information about a person's health. This device does not involve the analysis of any such specimens.

The U-RIGHT TD-1240 Thermometer is a medical device, specifically a thermometer, but it falls under the category of devices that measure physiological parameters directly on the body, not IVDs.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The thermometer measures temperature by reading infrared radiation emitting from the skin and converts it into a temperature value. U-RIGHT TD-1240 Thermometer has the same performance characteristics as the predicate device. A comparison of system accuracy performance demonstrated that U-RIGHT TD-1240 Thermometer and Fora ComfortScan Ear Thermometer (cleared under K081445) are substantially equivalent. Software verification and validation, performance and safety tests confirmed that the performance, safety and effectiveness of the U-RIGHT TD-1240 Thermometer are equivalent to the predicate device.
