Infrared forehead Thermometer Omron Gentle Temp 720 is a medical device meant for measurement of temperature. The thermometer detects the infrared emission of the skin of the forehead at the measured point, and then calculates the oral-equivalent value using a unique algorithm based on actual body temperature survey data. The Gentle Temp 720 also measures the surface temperature of an item for example baby's milk.
The manufacturer produces the forehead thermometer Omron Gentle Temp 720 with the applicable accessories included, necessary for the application of its intended purpose.
The complete set of the medical device is specified in the Instruction Manual in the Technical Data section.
The above mentioned medical device belongs to a IIa (MDD Annex IX Rule 10) potential risk class.

Medical product's intended use as determined by the manufacturer.
The device is an infrared forehead thermometer that measures the temperature at the surface of the forehead by sensing infrared emission of the skin at the measured point, and then converts this heat into an oral-equivalent value using an algorithm based on survey data.
Application field:
This device is designed for use in a home environment.
User:
This device is designed be used by an adult on themselves or children/babies.
OMRON is introducing the Gentle Temp 720 as its first forehead thermometer. It uses a highly accurate technology and has advanced features such as one-second measurement, selectable centigrade/Fahrenheit readings and room temperature display before turning off. To assist with readings in the dark (on a ward or in a child's room at night) the device also has backlight function. The 3-in-1 function enables various types of measurement, suitable for forehead, surface and room temperature reading.
The Gentle Temp 720 is an innovative, new supplement to our current EFT portfolio.
The infrared forehead thermometer Omron Gentle Temp 720 detects the infrared emission of the skin of the forehead at the measured point, and then calculates the oral-equivalent value using a unique algorithm based on actual body temperature survey data. For surface and room temperature the device measures the infrared heat given off by the air or surface.
Efficient measurement of the body temperature is one of the most important elements of disease control. The device allows the care giver to easily and accurately measure the patient's body temperature. Infrared method is used for detecting the temperature.
Since forehead temperature measurement involves no bodily support of the thermometer, the resulting measured temperature is typically lower than that of the armpit or mouth. However, as the forehead has blood vessels that are much less prone to vascular constriction (a natural function of body temperature adjustment), it is supposedly a better measurement area for determining core body temperature, even in a lower temperature environment.
