2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not explicitly state the specific sample sizes for each test in the "test set" (i.e., the data used to prove the device meets acceptance criteria). However, it lists recognized industry standards (ASTM, ISO, USP) for each test. These standards typically define minimum sample sizes for testing to ensure statistical validity.

The data provenance can be inferred based on the applicant information:

  • Country of Origin of the Data: The applicant is Hartalega NGC Sdn. Bhd., located in Sepang, Selangor, Malaysia. Therefore, the testing was likely conducted in Malaysia or by laboratories commissioned by the Malaysian company.
  • Retrospective or Prospective: These are non-clinical (laboratory) tests performed on the device to demonstrate its properties. This would be considered prospective in the sense that the tests were specifically conducted to evaluate this new device for regulatory submission, not retrospectively analyzed from existing data.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

This information is not applicable as the evaluation relies on objective, standardized laboratory tests (e.g., chemical permeation, physical property measurements, biocompatibility assays) rather than expert interpretation of a "test set" in the context of medical imaging or diagnostic algorithms. The "ground truth" is established by the defined parameters and methodologies of the ASTM, ISO, and USP standards.


4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This is not applicable as the evaluation relies on objective, standardized laboratory tests. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are typically used in studies involving human readers and subjective interpretations, such as radiology image reviews.


5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document explicitly states: "CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA: Not applicable. There was no clinical data required to support the subject device as the indication for use is equivalent to the predicate device." MRMC studies are used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of devices, often medical imaging AI, with human-in-the-loop scenarios. This document describes the performance of a physical medical device (surgical glove) through non-clinical testing.


6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

This is not applicable as the device is a physical surgical glove, not an algorithm or AI system. The tests evaluate the physical and chemical properties of the glove itself.


7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this device's evaluation is based on established standard test methodologies and defined acceptance criteria set by organizations like ASTM, ISO, and USP. These are objective measurements:

  • Physical measurements (length, width, thickness)
  • Mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation)
  • Chemical resistance (breakthrough time for chemotherapy drugs)
  • Biological safety (cytotoxicity, irritation, sensitization, systemic toxicity, pyrogenicity)

It does not involve expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in the typical sense of AI/diagnostic device evaluation.


8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This is not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI or machine learning model that requires a training set. The term "training set" refers to data used to train an algorithm.


9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

This is not applicable for the same reason as Section 8.

Dear Nurul Kong:

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.

{1}------------------------------------------------

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 statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

DermalSensitizationISO 10993-10:2021Biological evaluation ofmedical devices — Part 10:Tests for skin sensitizationUnder the conditions of the study, thedevice is not a sensitizerUnder the conditions of the study, the device is nota sensitizer. Similar to predicate device
Acute SystemicToxicityISO 10993-11:2017Biological evaluation ofmedical devices —Part 11: Tests for systemictoxicityUnder the conditions of the study, thedevice does not pose a toxicityconcernUnder the conditions of the study, there was no signsof toxicity. Similar to predicate device

CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA:

Not applicable. There was no clinical data required to support the subject device as the indication for use is equivalent to the predicate device.

CONCLUSION:

The conclusions drawn from the non-clinical tests demonstrate that the subject device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed predicate device.

§ 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).
