Device Description

ONLINE POWDER FREE, LATEX EXAMINATION GLOVES

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA to APL Products Sdn. Bhd. for their "Online Powder Free, Latex Examination Gloves". It does not contain information about the acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria.

The letter states that the FDA has determined the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices, meaning it does not require a premarket approval application (PMA). Substantial equivalence is generally based on demonstrating the new device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate device. This often involves comparing device characteristics and performance data to that of the predicate, but the specific acceptance criteria and detailed study results are not provided in this document.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided text.

Dear Mr. Hong:

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 (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 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.
