No
The device is described as an examination glove intended to prevent contamination, which is a barrier function, not a therapeutic intervention.

No
The glove's intended use is to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, not to diagnose any medical condition.

No

The device is a physical glove, 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 patient and examiner by being worn on the examiner's hand. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description is for examination gloves, which are a physical barrier device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device, specifically a barrier device, rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic.
