Intended Use

The Vinyl Patient Examination Glove (Yellow) is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hands to prevent contamination between patient and examiner.

Device Description

The proposed device is Powder Free Vinyl Patient Examination Gloves. The proposed device is yellow. The design of proposed device is addressing the standards as ASTM D6124, ASTM D5151, and ASTM D5250. The proposed device is non-sterile.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text details the 510(k) summary for the "Vinyl Patient Examination Glove (Yellow)" (K173580) and compares it to a predicate device (K163168). The information specifically relates to the technical specifications and performance of the examination gloves, rather than an AI/ML device or a medical imaging system. Therefore, many of the requested categories in the prompt regarding AI/ML device evaluation are not applicable.

Here's an analysis based on the available information:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The acceptance criteria for the Vinyl Patient Examination Glove (Yellow) are primarily based on established industry standards and specific physical and biological properties. The reported device performance is presented in comparison to a predicate device and adherence to these standards.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document does not specify general "test set" sample sizes or data provenance in the context of clinical studies (as it states "No clinical study is included in this submission"). For non-clinical tests like physical properties and freedom from holes, the standards (e.g., ISO 2859-1 for sampling) outline the sampling procedures, but specific sample sizes used in this submission are not explicitly stated. The manufacturer is "NATURE MEDICAL PRODUCTS CO., LTD." in Hebei, China, which suggests the tests were likely conducted in China. These non-clinical tests would be considered prospective for the device being evaluated.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This is not applicable as the device is a Vinyl Patient Examination Glove, not an AI/ML device requiring expert medical interpretation for ground truth. The "ground truth" for these types of devices is based on established laboratory testing and adherence to recognized performance standards (e.g., ASTM, ISO standards) for physical and biological properties.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This is not applicable since this document relates to a physical medical device (examination gloves) and not a diagnostic system requiring human interpretation or adjudication for ground truth.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

This is not applicable. The device is an examination glove, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

This is not applicable. The device is an examination glove.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

The "ground truth" for this device is based on:

  • Industry Standards: Compliance with established physical and chemical property requirements outlined in standards such as ASTM D5250, ASTM D5151, ASTM D6124.
  • Biocompatibility Testing: Results from in vitro and in vivo tests (ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10) determining irritation, sensitization, and cytotoxicity.
  • Manufacturing Specifications: Adherence to the manufacturer's own design and material specifications.

8. The sample size for the training set

This is not applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of an AI/ML model for this type of physical medical device.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

This is not applicable as there is no training set for an AI/ML model.

Dear Ray Wang:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's

{1}------------------------------------------------

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.

For comprehensive regulatory information about mediation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/) and CDRH Learn (http://www.fda.gov/Training/CDRHLearn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic.

§ 880.6250 Non-powdered patient examination glove.

(a)
Identification. A non-powdered patient examination glove is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. A non-powdered patient examination glove does not incorporate powder for purposes other than manufacturing. The final finished glove includes only residual powder from manufacturing.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). The device, when it is a finger cot, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 880.9.
