Device Description
Powder Free Nitrile Patient Examination Glove, Black Colored, Non-Sterile is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. The gloves are powder free, ambidextrous with beaded-cuff, black colored, single-use disposable devices that come in six sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL), and supplied in Non-Sterile state. The gloves are made of Nitrile Butadiene Rubber, designed and manufactured in accordance with ASTM D6319-10, Standard Specification for Nitrile Examination Gloves for Medical Application. Its physical and performance characteristics meet all requirements of ASTM D6319-10.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a standard patient examination glove and the description contains no mention of AI or ML technology.

No.
The device is a patient examination glove, intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, not to treat a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is a patient examination glove, intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. It does not collect or analyze any physiological data to diagnose a condition.

No

The device is a physical glove made of Nitrile Butadiene Rubber, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as 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 used for infection control, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics and materials of the glove, consistent with a barrier device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information. The performance studies focus on the physical integrity and biocompatibility of the glove, not its ability to diagnose a condition.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device is also a patient examination glove, which falls under the category of medical devices used for barrier protection, not IVDs.

IVDs are devices used to perform tests on specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) to diagnose diseases or other conditions. This glove does not perform such tests.
