The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and barrier function of a nitrile examination glove, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
No.
Gloves are barrier devices, not therapeutic devices intended to treat or cure a disease or condition.
No
This device is a glove, intended for barrier protection, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device is a physical examination glove made of nitrile, which is a hardware component, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Device Intended Use: The intended use of the True Advantage Non-Sterile Powder Free Purple Nitrile Patient Examination Glove is clearly stated as "a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This is a barrier device used externally.
- Lack of Specimen Examination: The device description and intended use do not involve the examination of any specimens taken from the human body. It's a physical barrier.
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a medical device, specifically a patient examination glove, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The True Advantage Non-Sterile Powder Free Purple Nitrile Patient Examination Glove is "a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner.". (21CFR 880.6250).

Device Description
a. HOW THE DEVICE FUNCTIONS: Nitrile films form a barrier to body fluids and bloodborne Pathogens.
b. SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS THAT FORM THE BASIS FOR THE DEVICE: The nitrile rubber is water tight under normal conditions of use. It's tensile Properties cause it to conform to the hand, allowing movements necessary for a medical procedure.
c. PHYSICAL AND PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS SUCH AS DESIGN, MATERIALS AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: Nitrile Rubber is known to create a barrier to bloodborne pathogens and and body fluids. ASTM D6319 conforming tensile properties create a glove that Is strong and flexible. The leaching process removes traces of chemical accelerants that may be chemically irritating. The glove is manufactured in accordance with the Requirements of ASTM D6319-00 and ASTM D5151-99 requirements.

Dear Dr. Perrella:
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.
