Device Description

Powder Free Nitrile Examination Gloves, Orange Color

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but based on the provided text, there is no information available about acceptance criteria or a study proving that a device meets such criteria.

The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for "Powder-Free Nitrile Examination Gloves, Orange Color" (K141021). This letter states that the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices, meaning it does not require a new Premarket Approval Application (PMA).

The letter primarily focuses on:

  • The trade/device name and regulation information.
  • The substantial equivalence determination.
  • General controls and regulations applicable to the device.
  • Contact information for FDA guidance.
  • The "Indications for Use" for the gloves, which defines their intended medical purpose.

There are no details about:

  • Specific performance acceptance criteria for the gloves (e.g., tensile strength, puncture resistance, barrier integrity metrics).
  • Any study (clinical or non-clinical) that was conducted to demonstrate performance against such criteria.
  • Sample sizes for test or training sets.
  • Ground truth establishment, experts, or adjudication methods.
  • MRMC studies or standalone algorithm performance, as these gloves are a physical medical device, not an AI or software device.
