No
The device description and intended use clearly define a physical examination glove, with no mention of software, data processing, or AI/ML terms.

No
The device, a Nitrile Powder-free Examination Glove, is intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, not to provide therapy or treatment for a disease or condition.

No
The provided text describes a glove used for preventing contamination, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical glove made of synthetic materials, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is a glove worn on the hand or finger(s) to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. This is a physical barrier function.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any testing of biological samples, analysis of bodily fluids, or any diagnostic purpose related to analyzing substances outside the body.

Therefore, the Nitrile Powder-free Examination Glove, as described, falls under the category of a medical device used for barrier protection, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
