en Section IV - Instructions for Use Peak Select System The Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base uses the patented Peak Select System. It takes multiple readings and selects the highest temperature for display.
Equivalence Modes Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base is an ear canal thermometer for infants, children, and adults. Prior to the introduction of tympanic thermometry, patient temperatures were measured in the mouth (oral), or in the rectum (rectal). If a patient’s temperature was measured at the same time with each of these methods, different temperatures would result. The Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base accounts for the average difference at each of these sites by adjusting the displayed temperature. The following equivalence modes are available on the Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base. Data is available from Covidien on request. Ear: In ear (EAR) mode, the display will indicate the absolute temperature without adjustment. The EAR mode is also the UNADJUSTED MODE or DIRECT MODE of temperature acquisition. Oral: In oral (ORL) mode, the ear temperature is adjusted to display the oral temperature equivalent. Oral Mode = Ear Mode -0.09 °C Clinical Bias = 0.09 °C Limits of Agreement = (+/-) 0.64 °C Clinical Repeatability = 0.13 °C Reference Body Site = Oral Cavity Measuring Body Site = EAR Rectal: In rectal (REC) mode, the ear temperature is adjusted to display the rectal temperature equivalent. Rectal Mode = Ear Mode +0.56 °C Clinical Bias: = 0.5 °C Limits of Agreement: = -0.47 / +1.66 °C Clinical Repeatability: = 0.231 °C Reference Body Site: = Rectum Measuring Body Site: = EAR
Probe Covers The Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base uses single use probe covers. The use of non-Covidien probe covers will cause incorrect readings. The probe covers are held in a cassette stored in the thermometer base. To load a probe cover on the thermometer, firmly push the probe tip into the probe cover. When installed on the thermometer, the probe cover film should be smooth with no holes, tears, or wrinkles. After the reading has been taken, eject the probe cover by pressing the eject button. Probe covers should be disposed of properly after use. In order to help prevent and control infection, always use a new probe cover before taking a reading.

Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base, including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.
3V/m
Recommended separation distance d = 1.2√P 80 MHz to 800 MHz d = 2.3√P 800 MHz to 2.7 GHz Where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in meters (m). Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey, should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range. Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:
Note 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies. Note 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people. a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the Genius 3 Tympanic Thermometer and Base. b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

* Values for minimum separation distance based on actual test data. Frequency and Maximum Power values were obtained from Table 9 of IEC 60601-1-2:2014. The Genius 3 will maintain laboratory accuracy in its rated output range in accordance with ISO 80601-2-56:2017 when the minimum separation distance is met. ** The Genius 3 thermometer is not intended to be used in close proximity to 2-way radios and walkie-talkie radios commonly used by personnel operating in emergency vehicles such as ambulances and helicopters. Using the Genius 3 near this type of communication equipment can cause erroneous temperature readings. Warning: Portable or mobile wireless RF communications equipment should be used no closer to the Genius 3 thermometer than stated above. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of the Genius 3 could result. If the Genius 3 thermometer is to be used near transmitters having maximum power other than the values listed in the table, the separation distance can be calculated with the following equations: 6 For transmitters operating at frequencies within range 704 to 787 MHz: d = 9– P 6
– P For transmitters operating at frequencies within range 800 to 2570 MHz: d = 28 6 For transmitters operating at frequencies within range 5100 to 5800 MHz: d = 9– P
where d is the distance in meters and P is the transmitter power in Watts.
