The device description and performance studies focus on basic temperature sensing technology (thermistor) and standard medical device testing, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
The device is used for monitoring temperature, which falls under diagnostic purposes, not therapeutic (treatment or cure).
No
The document states the device is "intended to be used for monitoring temperature," which is a measurement function, not a diagnostic one. It doesn't claim to diagnose any condition based on the temperature readings.
No
The device description clearly states it consists of physical components (plug connector, thermistor) and is a hardware probe used for temperature measurement.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to examine these samples outside of the body.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that these are temperature probes intended for monitoring temperature from the rectum or skin. This involves direct contact with the patient's body to measure a physiological parameter.
- Lack of Sample Analysis: There is no mention of collecting or analyzing any biological samples from the patient. The device directly measures temperature in vivo.
Therefore, these temperature probes fall under the category of medical devices used for physiological monitoring, not in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
Disposable temperature probes are used during patient temperature measurement. These probes consist of a plug connector on the adapter cable end and a thermistor on the patient end. Temperature probes measure temperature by a resistor that is sensitive to temperature changes. These probes are connected to the patient monitor by using an interconnect cable. These probes have a skin or rectal contact with adult patients. Both the skin and rectal probe are single use and provided non-sterile.
These temperature probes are typically used with legacy Nihon Kohden monitors BSM-5135A.

Use | Rectal Temperature Probe:
The Disposable Rectal
Temperature Probes are intended
to be used for monitoring
temperature from the rectum.

patient use with monitors of
Nihon Kohden model BSM-
5135A. These devices are
indicated for use by qualified
medical personnel only.

temperature probes are intended for
patient core body temperature
measurement in combination with
Draeger and Siemens patient
monitoring systems. The probes are
inserted into the oesophagus or the
rectum.

monitoring systems. The probes are
affixed on the patient's skin with an
adhesive cover. | Different (5) |
Justifications for differences between Caremed Temperature Probe and the predicate device are shown as below:
Different (1): It's different with the patient contacted material of predicate device. However, it's conformed with ISO 10993 series standard. According to analysis results, all the Patient Contacting Materials shows no cytotoxicity, irritation response was negligible and no sensitization. Thus, different material will not raise any safety or biocompatibility issues.
Different (2): The cable length of proposed device is different with predicate device. All subject devices were conducted performance testing according to ISO 80601-2-56. Thus, different cable length will not raise any safety or performance issues.
Different (3): It's different with the cable material of predicate device. However, it's conformed with ISO 10993 series standard. According to analysis results, all the cable shows no cytotoxicity, irritation response was negligible and no sensitization. Thus, different material will not raise any safety or biocompatibility issues.
Different (4): The subject device contains an interconnect cable which is designed to connect the monitor and the temperature probe. All components were conducted safety, EMC and performance testing. Thus, this different will not raise any question of safety and effectiveness.
Different (5): The compatible monitors of proposed devices are different from the predicate device. The
6
proposed devices are intended to use with Nihon Kohden monitors and the predicate devices are intended to use with Draeger and Siemens monitors. The core component of temperature probe is Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) which is identical to the NTC used in predicate device. The NTC determines the accuracy and range of temperature measurement. Therefore, the indication for use of proposed devices is essentially the same as predicate device.
