The reference body site of E201 infrared thermometer is oxter (axillary). The device has the following features: 1) The device is intended to be used in the homecare environment; 2) The device is mainly composed of infrared sensor(Thermopile), signal receiving processor, buttons, buzzer, LCD display. It is powered by 2*1.5 AAA batteries; 3) Switching between °C and °F; 4) Multi-functional, can measure ear and forehead temperature; 5) The 32 sets measurement data can be stored, the user can view the previous measurement results; 6) Low battery indication, and auto shut-down within 30s.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text to extract the acceptance criteria and study information for the Infrared Thermometer (model: E201):

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are primarily derived from the "Measuring accuracy" in the comparison table and the clinical accuracy testing based on ISO 80601-2-56.

Acceptance Criteria (from "Measuring accuracy" & ISO 80601-2-56)Reported Device Performance (from "Measuring accuracy" & Clinical Accuracy Testing)
Measuring Accuracy (Device Output vs. Reference)
±0.3°C for temperatures between 32.0°C and 34.9°C±0.3°C (32.0°C~34.9°C)
±0.2°C for temperatures between 35.0°C and 42.0°C±0.2°C (35.0°C~42.0°C)
±0.3°C for temperatures between 42.1°C and 43.0°C±0.3°C (42.1°C~43.0°C)
Clinical accuracy and repeatability within acceptable scope specified in standard ISO 80601-2-56Clinical accuracy and repeatability met requirements per referenced standards (ISO 80601-2-56)

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Test Set Sample Size: 150 subjects total.
    • 50 subjects in the 0-1 year age group.
    • 50 subjects in the 1-5 years age group.
    • 50 subjects in the over 5 years age group.
  • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated regarding country of origin. The study is described as a "clinical accuracy study for the E201 infrared thermometer was performed," implying a prospective clinical study. It does not mention retrospective data.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This information is not provided in the document. The text only states that the "reference body site of infrared thermometer is oxter (axillary)" and that clinical accuracy/repeatability testing was performed. It doesn't specify how many experts established the ground truth or their qualifications.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not provided in the document.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs. Without AI Assistance

This is not applicable as the device is an Infrared Thermometer, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers. No MRMC study was conducted.

6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done

This is not applicable in the context of an infrared thermometer. The device itself is the "standalone" entity that measures temperature. Its performance is evaluated directly against a reference body site.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Ground Truth: The "oxter (axillary)" temperature as the reference body site.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not applicable as this is a traditional medical device (infrared thermometer), not an AI/ML device that requires a distinct training set. The device's algorithms are based on established physical principles of infrared radiation and temperature conversion, calibrated during manufacturing, rather than being "trained" on a dataset in the AI sense.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This is not applicable for the same reasons as point 8. The device's calibration and accuracy are verified against known temperature standards and clinical measurements (using oxter temperature as reference), not established through a "training set" with ground truth in the AI sense.
