Intended Use

Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves Powder Free is disposable device intended for medical purpose that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner.

Device Description

JR MEDIC Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves Powder Free are Class I patient examination gloves bearing the product code Nitrile - LZA (21CFR880.6250). The gloves are made from acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer dispersion. These gloves are blue in color and are powder free.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for "Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves Powder Free." It details the device's technical characteristics, non-clinical performance, and comparison to a predicate device to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

This document describes the testing of a medical device (examination gloves), which
Does not involve AI, machine learning, or complex algorithmic performance in its functionality or assessment. The tests performed are
physical, chemical, and biological compatibility tests of the material itself.

Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and study proving AI/ML device performance (such as sample size for test/training sets, data provenance, expert ground truth establishment, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, etc.) is not applicable to this document. The document describes the data and testing for a Class I medical device (gloves) and demonstrates its "substantial equivalence" to an existing predicate device, primarily through non-clinical bench testing and biocompatibility studies.

However, I can extract the acceptance criteria and reported performance for the physical and biological properties of the gloves, as provided in the document.


Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance for Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves Powder Free

Since this is a physical medical device (gloves) and not an AI/ML-driven device, the criteria typically associated with AI/ML performance (e.g., AUC, sensitivity, specificity for a diagnostic algorithm) are not relevant here. Instead, the acceptance criteria relate to the physical properties, chemical composition, and biocompatibility of the gloves, demonstrating they meet established standards for medical examination gloves.

Here's the table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance based on the non-clinical testing summary:

Since the device is a simple medical examination glove and not an AI/ML system, the following points regarding AI/ML study design are explicitly not applicable to the data provided in this document:

  1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. Performance is based on physical and chemical tests on manufactured gloves, not a "test set" of patient data for AI.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for gloves is defined by adherence to physical standards (ASTM) and biological safety (ISO, USP), not expert annotation of medical images/data.
  3. Adjudication method: Not applicable.
  4. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: Not applicable. This is for performance assessment of diagnostic/AI tools with human readers.
  5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. There is no algorithm.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable in the context of AI/ML. The "ground truth" here is compliance with established international standards for physical properties and biocompatibility of medical gloves.
  7. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. There is no training set as there is no AI/ML model.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

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.

{1}------------------------------------------------

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 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/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); 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).

H. Clinical Testing Summary

Not applicable - Clinical data is not needed for gloves or for most devices cleared by the 510(k) process.

I. CONCLUSION

The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical test demonstrate that the subject device in 510(K) submission K192333, Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves Powder Free is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed predicate device K172930.

§ 880.6250 Non-powdered patient examination glove.

(a)
Identification. A non-powdered patient examination glove is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. A non-powdered patient examination glove does not incorporate powder for purposes other than manufacturing. The final finished glove includes only residual powder from manufacturing.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). The device, when it is a finger cot, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 880.9.
