## Indications for use
The Scout is a combination digital camera and long-wave infrared camera. The digital camera is indicated for the use of capturing visual images to measure the diameter, surface area, and perimeter of a part of the body or two body surfaces. The long-wave infrared camera is indicated for the use of capturing thermal images to measure the thermal intensity data of a part of the body or two body surfaces. Both components of the Scout are non-contact with respect to the patient and provide an adjunctive tool to help a trained and qualified health care professional measure and record external wound and body surface data. Intended for qualified healthcare professionals who are trained in its use, the Scout is a non-invasive and non-radiating device. The Scout is to be used on a patient population that includes non-pregnant female or male patients 18 years of age or older. The Scout is intended to be used in hospital, acute and sub-acute care settings, long term care, surgery, health care practitioner facilities, outpatient, home healthcare, or in any environment where health care is provided by a qualified health care professional. The Scout does not provide a diagnosis or therapy.
