Intended Use

The Disposable Sterilized Latex Surgical Glove is a device made of nature rubber intended to be worn by operating room personnel to protect a surgical wound from contamination.

Device Description

The proposed device, Disposable Sterilized Latex Surgical Gloves is a sterilized and disposable medical glove intended to be worn by operating room personnel to protect a surgical wound from contamination. The proposed device is made of natural rubber latex, per standard ASTM D3577-09(15), the rubber surgical gloves classification is: "Type 1-gloves compounded primarily from nature rubber latex." The gloves are powder-free and available in white in sizes 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, and 8.5. The proposed device is provided EO sterilized to achieve the sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 106. The disposable sterilized latex surgical glove shelf life is 3 years.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for Disposable Sterilized Latex Surgical Gloves, demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K171550). It focuses on non-clinical performance data and does not involve AI or clinical studies as typically defined in medical imaging or diagnostic device contexts. Therefore, many of the requested points are not applicable.

Here's an analysis of the provided information in the context of the requested questions:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

This product is a medical device (Disposable Sterilized Latex Surgical Gloves), not an AI algorithm. The "acceptance criteria" and "reported device performance" are based on physical, chemical, and biological properties of the gloves, compared against recognized ASTM and ISO standards.

§ 878.4460 Non-powdered surgeon's glove.

(a)
Identification. A non-powdered surgeon's glove is a device intended to be worn on the hands of operating room personnel to protect a surgical wound from contamination. A non-powdered surgeon's 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).
