Intended Use
The Infrared Thermometer (model: E201) is a non-sterile, reusable, handheld device. It is intended for measuring human body temperature for people of all ages by detecting infrared heat from the forehead and auditory canal. When measuring forehead temperature, it is non-contact and the distance of measurement is 1~5cm. The device can be used by consumers in homecare environment.
Device Description
The Infrared Thermometer, model E201, is a light weight, handheld and reusable infrared thermometer that measures temperatures for people of all ages by detecting infrared energy radiated from the forehead and auditory canal in the homecare environment. It uses 3.0V alkaline batteries and can be operated continuously. To measure body temperature, the probe of the thermometer is inserted into a patient's outer ear canal or put onto the skin of a patient's forehead mode, the thermometer must keep 1-5 cm distance with the forehead of patient, a probe cover is not needed for the forehead and ear mode. 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.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on standard infrared temperature measurement technology and clinical accuracy testing, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data processing or interpretation.

No

The device is intended for measuring human body temperature, which is a diagnostic tool, not a therapeutic intervention. It helps in identifying a condition (fever) but does not treat it.

No.
A diagnostic device typically identifies or characterizes a disease or condition. This device is an infrared thermometer, intended only for measuring body temperature, which is a physiological parameter, not a diagnosis in itself.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "handheld device" and lists hardware components such as an infrared sensor, signal receiving processor, buttons, buzzer, LCD display, and batteries.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • This device directly measures a physiological parameter (body temperature) from the human body (forehead and ear) using infrared heat. It does not analyze a biological specimen.

The description clearly indicates it's a device for measuring body temperature directly from the patient, which falls under the category of a medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

F. Principle Operation

The Infrared Thermometer measures temperatures of people by detecting the infrared energy radiated directly from the forehead without physical contact. All the temperature in nature above absolute zero (-273°C or -459.4°F) objects will radiate infrared, and the radiation of infrared energy and temperature is proportional to the relationship. Using this relationship, an object's temperature can be calculated by measuring its infrared intensity.
