Intended Use
Measures and displays long-term "body temperature" as calibrated to the equivalent oral temperature standard. Will not provide valid data in ambient temperatures greater than patient body temperature. Requires 30 minute warm-up before achieving accurate readings. Will not operate while exposed directly to sun or other forms of radiant heat. Measures and displays patient temperature as calibrated to the equivalent oral temperature standard. The APM-2000 Ambulatory Patient Transcutaneous Temperature Monitor is an element of the Sabratek Corporation APM-2000 System.
Device Description
The document describes the Sabratek APM-2000 Ambulatory Patient Transcutaneous Temperature Monitor, which is an electronic thermometer that measures and displays patient transcutaneous temperature. It has a digital display with a resolution of ± 0.1 F, a warm-up time of 30 minutes, and an accuracy of 0.3° F over a range of 95° F-105° F. It uses a skin surface probe and is powered by a battery.

No
The document describes a standard electronic thermometer and explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found".

No
The device measures temperature, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. Therapeutic devices are meant to treat or alleviate a medical condition.

No
The device measures and displays patient temperature. It is a thermometer, which collects data. It does not analyze, interpret, or diagnose medical conditions based on the collected data.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "electronic thermometer" with a "digital display," uses a "skin surface probe," and is "powered by a battery," indicating it is a hardware device.

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.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device "Measures and displays patient transcutaneous temperature" using a "skin surface probe." This is a measurement taken on the body (in vivo), not from a sample taken from the body (in vitro).
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to measure "long-term 'body temperature'" and "patient temperature," which are direct physiological measurements.

Therefore, the Sabratek APM-2000 Ambulatory Patient Transcutaneous Temperature Monitor is a medical device for in vivo temperature measurement, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 880.2910 Clinical electronic thermometer.

(a)
Identification. A clinical electronic thermometer is a device used to measure the body temperature of a patient by means of a transducer coupled with an electronic signal amplification, conditioning, and display unit. The transducer may be in a detachable probe with or without a disposable cover.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in part 807, subpart E of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 880.9 and the following conditions for exemption:(1) Device is not a clinical thermometer with telethermographic functions;
(2) Device is not a clinical thermometer with continuous temperature measurement functions; and
(3) Appropriate analysis and testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions, as appropriate, of ISO 80601-2-56, “Medical electrical equipment—Part 2-56: Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of clinical thermometers for body temperature measurement,” or ASTM E1965, “Standard Specification for Infrared Thermometers for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1112, “Standard Specification for Electronic Thermometer for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1104, “Standard Specification for Clinical Thermometer Probe Covers and Sheaths”) must validate specifications and performance of the device.
