No
The summary describes a standard examination glove and contains no mention of AI or ML technology.

No.
The device, a patient examination glove, is intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, not to provide therapy or treatment for a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is an examination glove, which is used for preventing contamination, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Powder-Free Polymer-Coated Latex Examination Glove," which is a physical hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use of this device is to be worn on the hand or finger of an examiner to prevent contamination. It does not involve the analysis of biological samples.
  • The description focuses on a physical barrier. The device description and intended use clearly indicate it's a physical barrier for protection, not a tool for diagnosing or monitoring a medical condition through the analysis of in vitro samples.

The information provided aligns with a Class I or Class II medical device (depending on the specific regulations and risk classification), but not an IVD.

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.

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.
