More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and safety of a medical examination glove, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

No
A therapeutic device is used to treat or alleviate a disease or condition. This device is described as a "patient examination glove" intended to "prevent contamination between patient and examiner," which is a preventative and protective function, not a therapeutic one.

No

Explanation: The device is a medical examination glove, which is used for protection and contamination prevention, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device is a physical glove made of nitrile latex compound, not software. The description clearly outlines its material and physical characteristics.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly states the device is a "powder free patient examination glove" intended to be worn on the hands or fingers to prevent contamination. This is a barrier device used on the body, not for testing specimens from the body.

The description and intended use align with a Class I or Class II medical device used for protection and hygiene, not for diagnostic testing of biological samples.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The proposed device was tested according to the following standards listed in the table below:

  1. Before Aging ASTM 6319-10 (D 412) - Physical Properties
    • Tensile Strength (MPa) = 14 min.
    • Ultimate Elongation (%) = 500 min.
  2. After Aging ASTM 6319-10 (D573) (70°C ± 2 °C for 166 hrs ± 2 hrs.)
    • Tensile Strength (MPa) = 14 min.
    • Ultimate Elongation (%) = 500 min.
  3. Freedom from Holes (D 5151) - AQL 2.5 Inspection Level G-1, Accept at 5 failures, Reject at 6 failures
  4. Residual Powder (D 6124) - ≤ 2.0 mg/pc
  5. Biocompatibility test - Primary Skin Irritation Test (ISO 10993-10:2010 (E)) - Under the conditions of the study, not a primary skin irritant.
  6. Biocompatibility test Dermal Sensitization Assay (ISO 10993-10:2010 (E)) - Under conditions of the study, not a contact sensitizer.
  7. Safety Assessment (Systemic Toxicity) - The results from the safety assessment demonstrated the device presents a low potential health risk.

The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical tests (discussed above) that demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed device.

Dear Jeffrey Richardson:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part

1

801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
