    Intended Use

    General Purpose Temperature probes Dräger disposable general purpose temperature probes are intended for patient core body temperature measurement in combination with Dräger and Siemens patient monitoring systems. The probes are inserted into the oesophagus or the rectum. Skin Temperature probes Dräger disposable skin temperature probes are intended for patient skin temperature measurement in combination with Dräger and Siemens patient monitoring systems. The probes are affixed on the patient's skin with an adhesive cover.

    Device Description

    Temperature probes are used during patient temperature measurement and consist of a plug connected to a patient monitor and a thermistor on the patient end. The thermistor consists of a resistor which is sensitive to temperature changes. The portfolio includes General Purpose Temperature probes to be inserted into the oesophagus or the rectum and Skin Temperature Probes. The devices are intended for single patient use and can be used with Dräger and Siemens patient monitors.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the provided 510(k) summary, aiming to describe the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them, based on the input text:

    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for Dräger Temperature Probes (K121999)

    Based on the provided 510(k) summary (K121999) for Dräger Temperature Probes, the document outlines verification and validation measures, but it does not explicitly state specific numerical acceptance criteria or detail the quantitative results of a study demonstrating these criteria have been met for accuracy. Instead, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices and adherence to general performance and safety tests.

    The document indicates that the device's performance is within an acceptable range for clinicians, implying that the acceptance criteria for these tests were met, but the specific metrics are not provided.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Acceptance Criteria (as implied)Reported Device Performance (as implied)

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

    The provided text does not specify the sample size used for the test set or the country of origin of the data. It mentions "Verification & validation measures include but are not limited to the following key tests," implying these tests were conducted, but offers no details about the testing methodology, sample sizes, or data provenance (retrospective or prospective) for each specific test.

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

    The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for a test set. This type of device (temperature probes) typically relies on metrological standards and comparisons to reference instruments rather than expert opinion for ground truth.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    As there's no mention of expert ground truth establishment, there is no adjudication method described.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not performed or is not mentioned in the provided document. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic imaging interpretation devices, not for basic medical instruments like temperature probes.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

    The device is a physical temperature probe, not an algorithm, so a "standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance)" study is not applicable and therefore not mentioned. The probes' performance is evaluated standalone in terms of their physical and electrical properties when connected to a monitor.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    The ground truth for the verification and validation tests would typically be established by metrological reference standards for temperature measurement, and possibly by laboratory testing against known environmental conditions, for tests like accuracy, electrical safety, mechanical tests, and environmental resistance. For biocompatibility, the ground truth is established by adherence to recognized biocompatibility standards (e.g., ISO 10993). The document confirms that for accuracy, the "function and principle of operation as well as the characteristic of the used NTC (YS1400) are equal" to predicate devices, implying that their inherent accuracy characteristics are comparable using established physical principles.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    There is no mention of a "training set" in the context of this device. Temperature probes are not AI/ML devices that require training sets. Their performance is based on physical design and manufacturing.

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

    As there is no training set, this question is not applicable.
