No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of a standard examination glove, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as an examination glove intended to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and patients, not to treat or alleviate a medical condition.

No

Explanation: The device is an examination glove, which is used to prevent contamination. Its function is not to diagnose any condition or disease.

No

The device is a physical glove made of natural rubber latex, not software. The description focuses on material properties and physical testing.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "worn on the hand of healthcare and similar personnel to prevent contamination between the healthcare personnel and the patient." This describes a barrier device used for protection, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body for the purpose of providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the material (natural rubber latex), form (powdered glove), and standards it meets (ASTM D-3578-05, 21 CFR 880.6250). This aligns with a medical device used for physical protection.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information. The performance studies focus on physical properties and biocompatibility, not analytical performance related to biological specimens.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device is a "Class 1 Patient Examination glove bearing the product code 80LYY ( 21 CFR 880.6250 )." This product code and classification are for general medical devices, not IVDs.

In summary, the device is a medical device used for barrier protection, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
