No
The device description and intended use focus on a passive thermistor and its interface with existing temperature monitors, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The device is used for routine monitoring of the patient's core body or skin surface temperature. It does not treat, mitigate, or cure any condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a temperature monitoring probe used for "routine monitoring" of temperature. While temperature monitoring is often part of a diagnostic process, the monitor itself does not diagnose a condition, but rather provides data for a healthcare practitioner to interpret.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical probe with a wire set, connector, and thermistor chip, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided text, the DeRoyal Temperature Monitoring Probe is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Function: The DeRoyal Temperature Monitoring Probe directly measures the patient's body temperature (core or skin surface) by being placed in or on the body. It does not analyze a specimen taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "routine monitoring of the patient's core body or skin surface temperature." This is a direct physiological measurement, not an analysis of a biological sample.
Therefore, the DeRoyal Temperature Monitoring Probe falls under the category of a general medical device used for physiological monitoring, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The DeRoyal Temperature Monitoring Probe is used for routine monitoring of the patient's core body or skin surface temperature.
The probe is offered in the following three configurations :
-
General Purpose Temperature Probe for routine monitoring of the core body temperature in adult and pediatric patients by insertion into the nasopharyngeal, esophageal, or rectal cavities.
-
Adult Skin Temperature Sensor for routine monitoring of skin temperature by application of the probe's adhesive cover to an adult patient's skin surface.
-
Tympanic Temperature Probe for routine monitoring of the core body temperature in adult and pediatric patients by insertion of the ear piece into the aural canal.
The device is single use and for use by licensed healthcare practitioners only. The probes are designed to interface with DeRoyal- branded cables for connection with YSI 400 or 700 series compatible monitors, including the following patient monitors and equivalent models: Mindray Passport. Philips IntelliVue, Siemens/Draeger Infinity, and GE Datex-Ohmeda brands.

Device Description
The DeRoyal Temperature Monitoring Probe is used for routine patient temperature monitoring. Each probe is single use and contains a wire set with a blue connector at the proximal end and a thermistor chip at the distal end. The thermistor passively modifies the electrical current traveling through the probe. The connector interfaces with a cable that is connected to an independent temperature monitor used to display the temperature readings.
There are three probe configurations included in this submission:
-
- An adult skin temperature sensor that consists of the wire set with an adhesive probe cover that is applied to the patient's intact skin for monitoring of skin surface temperature.
-
- A tympanic temperature probe that consists of the wire set with a foam ear plug that is inserted into the aural canal for monitoring of core body temperature.
-
- A general purpose temperature probe that consists of the wire set enclosed in a tube that may be inserted into the esophageal, rectal, or nasopharyngeal cavities for monitoring of core body temperature.
All probes are individually packaged. The tympanic configuration is non-sterile. The other two configurations are sold sterile. The probes are designed to interface with DeRoyal-branded cables for connection with YSI 400 or 700 series compatible monitors, including the following patient monitors and equivalent models: Mindray Passport, Philips IntelliVue, Siemens/Draeger Infinity, and GE Datex-Ohmeda brands.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The proposed device has been tested and/or evaluated according to the following standards: ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10, ISO 80601-2-56, IEC 60601-1, and IEC 60601-1-2.
The following biocompatibility tests were performed on final, finished products manufactured with the proposed change: cytotoxicity, skin sensitization, and irritation. This testing was performed on each of the three configurations contained within this submission.
Testing according to IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 was performed to ensure the change in the encapsulation did not affect the electrical safety of the device. Accuracy and time response testing according to ISO 80601-2-56 was performed to ensure the proposed device completed its essential performance safely and effectively. A leakage current test also was performed after submerging the device in solution to ensure the encapsulation method is effective.
All testing was performed on final, finished products manufactured with the proposed modification. The test results met the requirements of the aforementioned standards and demonstrate that the proposed modification does not impact the safety or efficacy of the device.
The results of performance testing demonstrate the DeRoyal Temperature Monitoring Probe is substantially equivalent to the predicates.

Summary of Performance Tests
The proposed device has been tested and/or evaluated according to the following standards: ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10, ISO 80601-2-56, IEC 60601-1, and IEC 60601-1-2.
The following biocompatibility tests were performed on final, finished products manufactured with the proposed change: cytotoxicity, skin sensitization, and irritation. This testing was performed on each of the three configurations contained within this submission.
Testing according to IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 was performed to ensure the change in the encapsulation did not affect the electrical safety of the device. Accuracy and time response testing according to ISO 80601-2-56 was performed to ensure the proposed device completed its essential performance safely and effectively. A leakage current test also was performed after submerging the device in solution to ensure the encapsulation method is effective.
All testing was performed on final, finished products manufactured with the proposed modification. The test results met the requirements of the aforementioned standards and demonstrate that the proposed modification does not impact the safety or efficacy of the device.
Conclusion
The results of performance testing demonstrate the DeRoyal Temperature Monitoring Probe is substantially equivalent to the predicates. With the exception of the proposed change to the encapsulation method, the proposed device is identical to the predicate devices, which have been on the market since 1994. Therefore, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate.
