Intended Use
A 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. These gloves are designed for single use only and should be disposed after use.
Device Description
The powder free nitrile examination glove is manufactured from Nitrile rubber. Inner surface of gloves undergoes surface treatment process to produce a smooth surface that assists the user in donning the gloves 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 and it is a single use device.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of a standard examination glove, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a glove intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, not to treat a disease or condition.

No.
Explanation: The device is a "patient examination glove," which is used to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. It does not perform any diagnostic function such as identifying a disease or condition.

No

The device is a physical examination glove made of nitrile rubber, which is a hardware component. The description focuses on the physical properties and performance of the glove itself.

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 hand or finger to prevent contamination. This is a barrier device used for physical protection and hygiene.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the material (nitrile rubber), manufacturing process (surface treatment), and physical characteristics (ambidextrous, single use).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This glove does not interact with or analyze such specimens.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies listed are related to the physical integrity and biocompatibility of the glove, not diagnostic accuracy or analysis of biological samples.

The device described is a Class I medical device (specifically, a patient examination glove) used for infection control and barrier protection.

Sample size: 5 pcs. Requirement:

§ 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 Michael Woude:

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
