More Information

Not Found

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

No
The device is a patient examination glove, which is intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. It is not designed to treat or alleviate a medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device, a patient examination glove, is used to prevent contamination and is not involved in diagnosing medical conditions by detecting, assessing, or monitoring diseases or injuries.

No

The device is a physical examination glove, which is a hardware medical device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This describes a barrier device for infection control, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical properties and material of the glove, not on any reagents, instruments, or systems used for in vitro testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), using reagents, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Guan:

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. 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.
