Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study for Sterile Latex Surgical Gloves Powder Free (K212596)

The study performed is a non-clinical performance (bench testing) study, as explicitly stated under "SUMMARY OF NONCLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA" and "SUMMARY OF CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA: Clinical data was not required for this submission." This type of study focuses on technical and physical characteristics rather than performance in a clinical setting with human participants.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and the Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are generally based on ASTM D3577-2019, Standard Specification for Rubber Surgical Gloves, and other specific standards for each test.

Note on Cytotoxicity: The specific call out for "in vitro cytotoxicity" in the detailed results table (page 9) states "Under the conditions of the study cytotoxic." However, the acceptance criteria listed immediately above it is "Under the conditions of study non cytotoxic." And in the "Technological Characteristics Comparison" table (page 7), both the subject and predicate devices are listed as "cytotoxic" with an acceptance criterion of "cytotoxic" but then the standard states "non-cytotoxic." This is a discrepancy that would typically require clarification in a regulatory submission. Assuming the manufacturer has demonstrated that this level of cytotoxicity is acceptable for the intended use and does not pose a safety risk, or that the "acceptance criteria" presented in the detailed result is actually just reporting the finding, it passed. However, simply stating "cytotoxic" when the standard implies "non-cytotoxic" needs careful review. For the purpose of this summary, it's listed as reported.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

• Sample Size: The document does not explicitly state the exact sample sizes (number of gloves) used for each bench test. Standards like ASTM D3577 typically specify sampling plans (e.g., AQL levels for defect testing).
