More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and barrier performance of surgical gloves, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The gloves are intended to protect a surgical wound from contamination, not to treat a disease or condition.

No
The device is described as surgical gloves intended to protect a surgical wound from contamination, not to diagnose a medical condition. Its function is protective and barrier-related, not diagnostic.

No

The device is a physical surgical glove made of synthetic rubber latex, not a software application.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that these gloves are for protecting a surgical wound from contamination and are worn by operating room personnel during medical procedures. This is a barrier device used on the patient or user, not a device used to examine specimens outside the body to provide diagnostic information.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the material and form of the gloves, consistent with a medical device used for protection.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), providing diagnostic information, or any of the typical characteristics of an IVD.

IVDs are devices used to perform tests on specimens taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This description does not align with that definition.

Dear Mr. Devine:

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.
