No
The 510(k) summary describes latex examination gloves, which are a simple barrier device and do not involve AI/ML technology. The summary also explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found".

No
The gloves prevent contamination, but they do not actively treat or diagnose a medical condition in a patient.

No.
The device, "Latex examination powderfree gloves," is described as being worn by personnel to prevent contamination, which is a protective function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device is described as "Latex examination powderfree gloves," which are physical hardware and not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and the patient by being worn on the hands. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing information about a patient's health status, disease, or condition.
  • Device Type: Latex examination gloves are a physical barrier device, not a diagnostic instrument or reagent.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This description clearly indicates a protective barrier device.

Dear Mr. Chai:

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.
