A disposable device intended for medical purpose that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. This device is single use only.
The Powder-Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves Peppermint Scented meets all requirements of ASTM D 6319-10 and FDA 21 CFR 800.20. The device is made out of nitrile.
The provided 510(k) summary (K121528) describes the acceptance criteria and performance of Powder-Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves, Peppermint Scented. The study is a non-clinical performance assessment comparing the new device against established standards and a predicate device (K090194).
Here's a breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Characteristic | Acceptance Criteria (Standards) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Dimensions | ASTM D6319-10 | Meets |
| Physical Properties | ASTM D6319-10 | Meets |
| Freedom from Pinholes | ASTM D6319-10 & FDA 21 CFR 800.20 | Meets, AQL 2.5 |
| Powder-Free | ASTM D 6124-06 | Meets < 2mg/glove |
| Biocompatibility: Primary Skin Irritation | Primary Skin Irritation in Rabbits (Passes) | Passes (Not a primary skin irritant) |
| Biocompatibility: Dermal Sensitization | Dermal Sensitization (Passes) | Passes (Not a contact sensitizer) |
| Width (Medium) | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (95 mm) | 95 mm |
| Length | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (240 mm) | 240 mm |
| Single Palm Thickness | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (0.09 mm) | 0.09 mm |
| Single Finger Thickness | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (0.10 mm) | 0.10 mm |
| Single Cuff Thickness | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (0.08 mm) | 0.08 mm |
| Tensile strength pre-aging | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (25 MPa, ASTM D412) | 25 MPa |
| Tensile strength after aging | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (25 MPa, ASTM D412) | 25 MPa |
| Water Leak Testing | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (AQL 2.5, ASTM D5151) | Water Leakage checked to AQL 2.5 |
| Ultimate elongation pre-aging | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (570%, ASTM D412) | 592% |
| Ultimate elongation after aging | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (577%, ASTM D412) | 572% |
| Residual Powder | Not explicitly stated as acceptance criteria, but compared to predicate (< 2mg/glove, ASTM D6124) | < 2mg/glove |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes used for each specific test (e.g., number of gloves tested for pinholes, physical properties, etc.). It only mentions that the device "Meets" the standards, implying that adequate samples were tested to demonstrate compliance.
The data provenance is retrospective and non-clinical. The testing was conducted on samples of the new device and compared against established ASTM standards and the characteristics of a predicate device. The origin of the data (country where tests were performed) is not specified, but the manufacturer is based in China.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
Not applicable. This device is a medical glove, and the acceptance criteria are based on objective, standardized physical and chemical tests (ASTM standards, FDA regulations), not on subjective expert interpretation of medical images or patient data. Therefore, "ground truth" as established by medical experts is not relevant in this context.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. As noted above, the assessment relies on objective measurements against predefined standards, not on human interpretation requiring adjudication.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No. An MRMC study is not relevant for this type of device. This is a non-clinical performance evaluation of a glove, not an imaging diagnostic device or a device requiring human reader interpretation.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) Was Done
Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or an AI-powered system. It is a physical medical device (examination glove). The performance described is its inherent physical and biological characteristics.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for this device's performance is defined by established consensus standards and regulatory requirements. Specifically:
- ASTM International Standards: ASTM D6319-10 (Standard Specification for Nitrile Examination Gloves for Medical Application), ASTM D6124-06 (Standard Test Method for Residual Powder on Medical Gloves), ASTM D5151 (Standard Test Method for Detection of Holes in Medical Gloves), and ASTM D412 (Standard Test Methods for Vulcanized Rubber and Thermoplastic Elastomers—Tension).
- FDA Regulations: Specifically, 21 CFR 800.20 ("Patient examination gloves").
- Biocompatibility Testing Guidelines: Primary Skin Irritation and Dermal Sensitization tests are standard biological evaluation methods for medical devices.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This device does not involve a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI. Performance is evaluated through physical and chemical testing of manufactured gloves.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device. The ground truth for the performance evaluation is established by the referenced ASTM and FDA standards and recognized biocompatibility testing methods.

Dear Mr. Li:
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
