More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a standard medical glove and the summary contains no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device prevents contamination, it does not treat a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is for preventing contamination between patient and examiner, not for diagnosing any medical condition.

No

The device description and performance studies clearly indicate the device is a physical product (gloves) and there is no mention of any software component.

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 "worn on the examiner's hands 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 properties and standards related to gloves (material, powder-free, color, standards like ASTM D6124, D5151, D6319). These are typical characteristics of medical gloves, not IVD devices.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, assays, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described focus on the physical integrity, biocompatibility (skin sensitization, irritation, cytotoxicity), and freedom from holes, which are relevant to the safety and effectiveness of a glove as a barrier. They do not involve diagnostic performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy in detecting a condition.

In summary, the device is a medical glove intended for barrier protection, not for performing diagnostic tests on samples outside the body.

ASTM D7160-16,Standard Practice for Determination of Expiration Dating for Medical Gloves

For 9-inch gloves:
Skin Sensitization Test: All grades are 0. All animals were survived and no abnormal signs were observed during the study.
Skin Irritation Test: The primary irritation index is 0. The response of the proposed device was categorized as negligible under the test condition.
Cytotoxicity Test: Viab.% of 100% test article extract is 71.6%. It means the proposed device have no potential toxicity to L-929 in the MTT method.
Residual Powder Test: 0.08 mg /glove.
Freedom from Holes Test: no glove water leakage found (Sample number: 125 gloves, AQL: 2.5 (ISO 2859), Criterion

§ 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 Boyle Wang:

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.
