Intended use
The product is intended for measuring the
temperature of the human body.
The device is intended for all ages in a home
environment.
General
This Philips ear thermometer has been developed
for accurate and fast human body temperature
measurements in the ear in the adjusted mode.
Research indicates that the ear is an ideal site for
taking the body temperature.
The body core temperature is regulated by
the hypothalamus (Fig. 2). The hypothalamus (A)
shares the same blood supply as the tympanic
membrane (B).
Measurement results can be transmitted via
Bluetooth
to the Philips HealthSuite health app
®
for charting and tracking purposes.
