No
The summary describes a standard vinyl examination glove with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is a patient examination glove, which is used for preventing contamination between patient and examiner, not for treatment or therapy.

No
The text describes a disposable vinyl patient examination glove used to prevent contamination, not a diagnostic device for identifying or characterizing a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical product (vinyl examination gloves) and there is no mention of software components or functionality.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is a "disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This describes a barrier device used for protection during physical examination.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any testing of biological samples, analysis of bodily fluids, or diagnostic purposes.

Therefore, the vinyl patient examination glove described is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a barrier device for infection control, not an in vitro diagnostic.

Dear Mr. Chen:

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.
