2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
-
Sample Sizes:
- Skin Sensitization, Skin Irritation, and Cytotoxicity: The document states "All grades are 0. All animals were survived and no abnormal signs were observed during the study." for sensitization, and "The primary irritation index is 0." for irritation, and "Viab.% of 100% test article extract is 71.75%" for cytotoxicity. While it indicates successful testing, the specific numerical sample size for these biological evaluation tests (e.g., number of animals or cell cultures) is not explicitly provided in the summary.
- Freedom from Holes (ASTM D5151-06): 125 gloves.
- Residual Powder (ASTM D6124-06): Not specified, but implied to be sufficient for a quantitative measurement (0.06 mg/glove).
- Dimensions and Physical Properties (ASTM D6319-10): Specific sample sizes for each dimension, thickness, and physical property measurement are not provided in this summary, but the results for ranges are given.
-
Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin or whether the studies were retrospective or prospective. Given that this is a 510(k) summary for a Chinese manufacturer (JIANGSU SHENGLIJIE SAFETY PRODUCTS CO.,LTD), it is highly probable that the testing was conducted in China. These types of performance studies are typically prospective.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
This information is not applicable to this type of device and study. The ground truth for these tests (e.g., irritation index, viability percentage, presence of holes, tensile strength) is established by standardized laboratory procedures and measurements, not by expert consensus or interpretation of images.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable. As stated above, the "ground truth" for these performance tests is determined by objective, standardized measurements rather than human interpretation that would require adjudication.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic imaging devices where human readers interpret and a comparative effectiveness with and without AI assistance is measured. This document is for disposable nitrile gloves, which do not involve such a scenario.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done
No, a standalone (algorithm only) study was not done. This concept applies to AI/ML software as a medical device. Disposable nitrile gloves are a physical medical device, and their performance is evaluated through physical and biological testing, not through algorithms.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth used for these tests is objective, standardized measurements and laboratory observations according to established international and national standards (ISO 10993, ASTM D6124, ASTM D5151, ASTM D6319). This includes:
- Quantitative measurements (e.g., primary irritation index, viability percentage, powder content, dimensions, tensile strength, elongation).
- Qualitative observations based on standardized protocols (e.g., presence/absence of abnormal signs for sensitization, water leakage for holes).
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This device (disposable nitrile gloves) does not utilize a training set in the context of machine learning or AI models. The testing described is for physical and biological performance, not for developing an algorithm.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable. There is no training set for this device.

9. Summary of Clinical Performance Test
No clinical study is included in this submission.
10.0 Conclusion
The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the proposed device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed predicated device.
§ 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.
