More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and safety of examination gloves, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a disposable medical glove intended to prevent contamination, not to treat or diagnose a disease or condition.

No
The device, "Disposable Medical Rubber Examination Gloves," is intended to prevent contamination between the patient and examiner. It does not perform any diagnostic function such as detecting, monitoring, or predicting a disease or condition. Its purpose is primarily for barrier protection.

No

The device is a physical product (gloves) made of natural rubber latex, not software. The description focuses on material properties and physical performance tests.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states the device is a "Disposable Medical Rubber Examination Glove" intended to be "worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This is a barrier device used for protection and hygiene, not for performing diagnostic tests on bodily samples.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples, detect substances, or provide any diagnostic information about a patient's condition.

The device described is a standard medical glove used for examination purposes.

Dear Ray 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. 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.

Disposable Medical Rubber Examination Gloves are disposable device intended for medical purpose that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner.

    1. Technological Characteristic Comparison Summary
      The subject device has same indication for use, design (single use, non-sterile), powdered free and material with the predicate device.

The subject is different with the predicate device in dimensions, physical properties, powder free residue and protein content. But both subject device and predicate device meet the requirements of ASTM D3578-19, Standard Specification for Rubber Examination Gloves, so we conducted the testing as this standard, the test results show that the subject device meet the requirements of this standard, so these different in dimensions, physical properties, powder free residue and protein content would not raise new safety concerns.
