A patient examination glove is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hands to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. These gloves were tested for use with chemotherapy drugs, as per ASTM D6978-05 (Reapproved 2019) Standard Practice for Assessment of Medical Gloves to Permeation by Chemotherapy Drugs.
The SafeSource Direct Blue Powder-Free Nitrile Exam Gloves are a patient examination glove that is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hands to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. These gloves were tested for use with chemotherapy drugs. The purpose of this submission is to add two additional sizes (AMERI-TUFF Series 4000 XS and XXL) and additional series (AMERI-TOUCH Series 5000 XS through XXL) of SafeSource Direct Blue Powder-Free Nitrile Exam Glove
This document is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device (SafeSource Direct Blue Powder-Free Nitrile Exam Gloves) seeking FDA clearance. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, primarily through non-clinical performance data (i.e., laboratory testing). It does not involve a study of an AI-powered device or a human-in-the-loop performance study.
Therefore, many of the requested elements related to AI/MRMC studies, expert ground truth adjudication, and training/test set details for AI models are not applicable to this document. I will focus on the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria, as detailed in the provided text.
Here's a breakdown based on the information provided in the document:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The device under review includes two series of gloves: AMERI-TUFF Series 4000 and AMERI-TOUCH Series 5000. Not all tests explicitly differentiate between the series in the summary table, but chemotherapy permeation times are distinct.

§ 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.
