Device Description

Classified by FDA's General and Plastic Surgery Device panel as Class I, 21 CFR 880.6250, Powdered Vinyl Patient Examination Glove, 80LYZ, Powdered with Absorbable Dusting Powder, USP, Class III and meets all requirements of ASTM Standard D5250-00.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information based on the provided document:

This document describes a 510(k) submission for patient examination gloves, which are low-risk devices. Therefore, the "study" described is primarily a series of non-clinical bench tests and biocompatibility assessments demonstrating equivalence to a predicate device, rather than a clinical trial involving human patients or complex AI algorithms.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Physical and Dimensions Testing (based on ASTM-D-5250-00)All testing meets requirements for Physical and Dimensions Testing conducted on gloves, Inspection Level S-2, AQL 4.0.
Pinhole Requirement (FDA 1000 ml. Water Fill Test)Conducted with samplings of AQL 2.5, Inspection Level I, meeting requirements.
Biocompatibility (Primary Skin Irritation and Skin Sensitization)Results showing no primary skin irritant or sensitization reactions.
Labeling ClaimsNo special labeling claims; does not claim gloves as hypoallergenic.

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

  • Physical and Dimensions Testing: "Inspection Level S-2, AQL 4.0" (The exact sample size isn't explicitly stated but is determined by the AQL and inspection level from ASTM-D-5250-00, which are standard statistical sampling plans.)
  • Pinhole Test (FDA 1000 ml. Water Fill Test): "AQL 2.5, Inspection Level I" (Similar to above, sample size is determined by AQL and inspection level from standard testing protocols.)
  • Primary Skin Irritation and Skin Sensitization: Not explicitly stated, but these are typically performed on a limited number of animal or human subjects/patches under controlled lab conditions.
  • Data Provenance: The tests were conducted by the manufacturer, Shijiazhuang Eversharp Plastics Products Co., Ltd., in Hebei Province, P.R. China. The data would be prospective as it was generated specifically for this 510(k) submission.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of those Experts

Not applicable for this type of device. The "ground truth" for glove performance is established by standardized test methods (ASTM standards, FDA water fill test) and the results are analytical measurements, not subjective interpretations by experts.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. The tests involve objective measurements against predefined thresholds, not subjective assessments requiring adjudication.

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

Not applicable. This device is a physical medical product (gloves) and does not involve AI or human readers for diagnostic interpretation.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or software.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used for these tests were:

  • Standardized Thresholds: Defined by ASTM-D-5250-00 for physical properties and dimensions, and by FDA requirements for the pinhole test.
  • Biocompatibility Standards: Established limits and criteria for irritation and sensitization reactions based on recognized testing protocols.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This device is not an AI or machine learning model that requires a "training set."

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

Not applicable. This device is not an AI or machine learning model.
