No
The 510(k) summary describes a standard examination glove and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

No.
The device, an examination glove, is intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, which is a protective rather than therapeutic function.

No
This device is an examination glove, worn to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. It does not collect or analyze data to diagnose a condition.

No

The device is a physical examination glove, not a software application.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "disposable device intended for medical purpose that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This describes a barrier device used for protection during physical examination, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide diagnostic information.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: The description does not mention any function related to analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic results.
  • Focus on Barrier Protection: The emphasis is on preventing contamination, which is a function of a medical glove, not an IVD.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This glove does not fit that description.

Dear Ms. Chou:

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.

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 requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (section 534-542 of the Act; 21): CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
