The Powder Free Polymer Coated Latex Surgical Glove, Sterile with Protein Content Labeling (50 micrograms or less) is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn by surgeon's and / or operating room personnel to protect a surgical wound from contamination.

Device Description

The Powder Free Polymer Coated Latex Surgical Glove, Sterile with Protein Content Labeling (50 micrograms or less) meets all the requirements of ASTM Standard D 3577 - 00 and FDA 21 CFR 800.20.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided 510(k) summary, aiming to extract the requested information about acceptance criteria and the supporting study:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

CharacteristicsAcceptance Criteria (Standards)Reported Device Performance
DimensionsASTM D 3577 - 00Meets
Physical PropertiesASTM D 3577 - 00Meets
Freedom from pinholesASTM D 3577 - 00, FDA 21 CFR 800.20Meets
Powder-FreeASTM D 6124 - 97< 2 mg/glove
Protein LevelASTM D 5712 - 95< 50 µg/g (per glove, implied)
Biocompatibility:
Primary Skin IrritationPrimary Skin Irritation in RabbitsPasses (Not a primary skin irritant)
Dermal SensitizationDermal SensitizationPasses (Not a contact sensitizer)

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

The document does not specify the sample size for the test set used for each characteristic. It also does not explicitly state the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective). The testing was conducted by the manufacturer, WRP Specialty Products Sdn. Bhd. in MALAYSIA.

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

This type of study (evaluating physical and chemical properties of surgical gloves) does not typically involve human experts establishing a "ground truth" for the test set in the same way clinical diagnostic devices do. The ground truth for these characteristics is established by objective, standardized laboratory measurements against defined ASTM and FDA standards.

4. Adjudication Method

Not applicable. The evaluation relies on objective laboratory tests against pre-defined standards, not human interpretation that would require adjudication.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No. A MRMC comparative effectiveness study is not applicable to the evaluation of surgical glove physical and chemical properties. This type of study is used for diagnostic devices where human readers interpret medical images or data.

6. Standalone Performance Study

Yes, in a sense. The reported "Device Performance" for each characteristic (dimensions, physical properties, freedom from pinholes, powder-free, protein level, and biocompatibility through skin irritation and dermal sensitization tests) represents the standalone performance of the device as measured against established objective standards. It's an algorithm (or device) only evaluation, as there is no human-in-the-loop performance involved in these specific tests.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used is based on:

  • Objective, standardized laboratory measurements: For dimensions, physical properties, freedom from pinholes, powder-free content, and protein level. These are quantitative or qualitative assessments against specific ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) standards and FDA regulations.
  • Biological assay results: For biocompatibility (Primary Skin Irritation in Rabbits and Dermal Sensitization), the ground truth is established by the outcome of standard biological tests indicating whether the material is an irritant or sensitizer.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This device is a physical product (surgical glove) and not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set. The "design" and "manufacturing process" for such a device are validated through established engineering principles and quality control, rather than through a machine learning training paradigm.

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

Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

Dear Ms. Hussein:

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 vour 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.
