No.
The device ( Examination gloves-Type C (Nitrile gloves)) is described as a disposable device intended for medical purposes worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination, which is a barrier, not a therapeutic function.
No
The device is an examination glove intended to prevent contamination, not to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device is a physical examination glove made of nitrile rubber, not a software application.
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 a "disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This describes a barrier device for protection, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body for the purpose of providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics and material of the glove, not on any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD-related information: There is no mention of analyzing samples, reagents, calibrators, controls, or any other elements typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
Therefore, the Examination gloves-Type C (Nitrile gloves) as described is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a protective barrier device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
