80LZA

80LZA (21 CFR 880.6250)

No
The device is a medical glove and the description focuses on material properties and performance standards, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device, a nitrile examination glove, is intended for contamination prevention and does not provide therapy.

No
The device is a glove, which is used for protection and contamination prevention, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device is a physical examination glove made of nitrile, not a software application.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device 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 from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the material, color, and physical properties of the glove, and its equivalence to a Class 1 patient examination glove. This aligns with a protective barrier device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples like blood, urine, or tissue to diagnose diseases or conditions. This device is a physical barrier.
