The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and barrier function of a patient examination glove, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
No
The device, a patient examination glove, is intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, primarily for barrier protection, not for treating or diagnosing a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: A patient examination glove is used to prevent contamination between the patient and examiner, not to diagnose a condition. The performance studies focus on physical properties, not diagnostic accuracy.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical glove made of synthetic rubber latex, which is a hardware component.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is a "patient examination glove...worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This describes a barrier device used for physical protection and hygiene, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the material (nitrile), manufacturing process, and physical properties of the glove. It does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in specimens
- Providing diagnostic information
- Reagents or assays
The device is a Class I medical device (as indicated by the reference to FDA 21 CFR 880.6250, which covers patient examination gloves) used for infection control and barrier protection.

Device Description
Powder Free Nitrile Patient Examination Glove, Non-Sterile (Blue) meet all the requirements of ASTM standard D6319-19 and FDA 21 CFR 880.6250.
The powder free nitrile examination glove is manufactured from synthetic rubber Inner surface of gloves undergoes surface treatment process to produce a latex. smooth surface that assists the user in donning the gloves with ease without using any lubricant such as powder on the glove surface. The glove is ambidextrous, i.e., can be worn on right hand or left hand.

§ 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.

Dear Wan Hassan:
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/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) 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 https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
