2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not explicitly state a specific "sample size for the test set" in the context of an AI/ML algorithm or a typical clinical trial test set. The tests performed are non-clinical performance tests on the physical product.

  • For Watertightness (ASTM D5151): The test involved a sample size of 125 units for each color (Green, Blue, Black). The data provenance is implied to be from the manufacturer's internal testing as part of their 510(k) submission, likely conducted in China given the submitter's address. This is retrospective data in the sense that it's reported from completed tests.

For other physical tests (dimensions, physical properties), the specific number of units or measurements per unit is not explicitly stated in this summary, but it would align with the requirements of the respective ASTM standards.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

This document is a 510(k) submission for medical examination gloves, which are low-risk Class I devices. The studies performed are physical and biocompatibility tests, not studies involving expert interpretation of medical images or patient outcomes.

  • Therefore, no experts (e.g., radiologists) were used to establish ground truth in the context of typical AI/ML algorithm validation. The ground truth for these tests is based on objective physical measurements and chemical/biological assays defined by international and national standards (ASTM, ISO).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

As the tests are objective physical and chemical/biological assessments, no adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1 for expert interpretations) was necessary or performed. The results are quantitative measurements against predefined criteria.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No MRMC study was done. This type of study is typically performed for diagnostic devices (e.g., AI for medical imaging) to assess how AI assistance impacts human reader performance. Examination gloves do not involve human diagnostic interpretation.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

  • Not applicable. This document describes a physical medical device (examination gloves), not an algorithm or AI system. Therefore, there is no "standalone algorithm" performance to report.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth for this device's performance claims is based on objective measurements and laboratory testing against established industry standards:

  • Physical Standards: Adherence to ASTM D6319 (dimensions, physical properties), ASTM D5151 (freedom from holes), and ASTM D6124 (powder content).
  • Biocompatibility Standards: Adherence to ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity) and ISO 10993-10 (irritation, sensitization).

This is a form of "reference standard" based on published, peer-reviewed, and globally recognized test methodologies.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not applicable. This document describes a physical medical device. There is no AI/ML algorithm involved, and therefore no "training set."

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • Not applicable. As there is no training set, the question of its ground truth establishment is irrelevant in this context.

Dear Boyle 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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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

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

statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's 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) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

9.0 Summary of Clinical Testing

Clinical testing is not needed for this device.

Conclusion 10.0

The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the subject device, Nitrile Examination Gloves,Green/Blue/Black Color, are as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed predicated device under K171422.

§ 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.
