More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a physical glove liner and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
The device is a cut-resistant glove liner designed to protect against cuts, not to treat or alleviate a disease or condition. Its purpose is protective, not therapeutic.

No
The device is a cut-resistant glove liner, which is a protective barrier for hands during surgery. It does not collect or analyze any physiological data or medical images to diagnose conditions. Its function is purely protective, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical glove liner made of knitted fibers, 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 to provide cut protection to the hands during surgery when worn between two surgical gloves. This is a physical barrier and protective function, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details the materials and construction of a glove liner, which is a physical item.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This glove liner does not fit that description.

The cut resistant under glove liner is a white color glove liner knitted from an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers that offers cut resistance. The glove liner is knitted using UHMWPE varn as the main strengthening component along with Nylon and Spandex for comfort.

The cut resistance under glove is designed to provide ANSI/ISEA 105 Cut Level Protection 2 against cuts for the hands of surgeons, nurse or any personal involving in surgeries by giving cut protection level 2 during the surgeries. The glove to be worn between two surgical glove inner and outer as a under glove.

The glove is manufactured from similar type materials to provide equivalent material, color, design, cuff feature and cut level performance as the predicate. The sterilization process though differs but achieves the required sterility. Biocompatibility was done on the subject device to show that the product was not cytotoxic, an irritant or a sensitizer consistent with the ISO 10993 series of standards.

Performance Data

A clinical study was not conducted on the subject device or the predicate device.

Substantial Equivalence Statement

The Gammex® Cut Resistant Glove Liner is substantially equivalent to the predicate device with respect to the design, technological characteristics, and conformance to standards requirements. The device differs from the predicate in that it is a single use device.
