Device Description

Master Guard Disposable Nitrile Powdered Blue Examination Gloves

AI/ML Overview

This FDA 510(k) clearance letter for "Master Guard Disposable Nitrile Powdered Blue Examination Gloves" does not contain the detailed information necessary to describe acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance in the way requested.

The letter primarily focuses on the regulatory determination of substantial equivalence to a predicate device, which means the device is considered as safe and effective as a legally marketed device that was on the market prior to May 28, 1976.

Specifically, the document does not provide any information for the following requested items:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This type of data is typically found in a summary of safety and effectiveness or a test report, not in the clearance letter itself.
  2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: There is no mention of specific test sets or their size/origin.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications: Not applicable, as no such test is described.
  4. Adjudication method: Not applicable.
  5. Multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study: Not applicable.
  6. Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) study: Not applicable (this is a physical glove, not an AI algorithm).
  7. The type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable (this is a physical glove, not an AI algorithm).
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

The document does state the Indications for Use:
"A patient examination Nitrile Blue Powdered Glove is a disposable device intended for medical purpose that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner."

To find information on acceptance criteria and performance data for this type of device, one would typically need to refer to:

  • Voluntary consensus standards: Such as ASTM standards for medical examination gloves (e.g., ASTM D6319 for nitrile examination gloves), which define performance requirements for properties like tensile strength, elongation, puncture resistance, and barrier integrity (e.g., AQL for pinholes).
  • The 510(k) submission itself: The actual submission would contain the test reports and data that demonstrate the device meets these standards and any other specific performance claims, enabling the FDA to determine substantial equivalence.

Without access to the actual 510(k) submission, the requested information cannot be extracted from the provided text.

Dear Mr. Kon Fah:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice. labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
