No
Explanation: The device, a patient examination glove, is intended to prevent contamination between the patient and the examiner. It does not perform any diagnostic function such as identifying, assessing, or monitoring a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "patient examination glove," which is a physical, hardware device. There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use of a patient examination glove is to prevent contamination between patient and examiner by being worn on the hand or finger. 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 Diagnostic Function: The glove itself does not perform any diagnostic test on a biological sample. It is a physical barrier used during an examination.

The provided information clearly describes a physical barrier device, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

Dear Mr. Choon:

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.
