No
The 510(k) summary describes standard examination gloves and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

No.
The device description and intended use indicate it is an examination glove used to prevent contamination, not to treat or cure a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device description clearly states "Patient examination gloves" which are used for protection and to prevent contamination, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is "Latex Patient examination gloves, Powder Free," which are physical hardware devices, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the gloves are for preventing contamination between patient and examiner during medical examinations. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description is for a physical glove, not a reagent, instrument, or system used to examine specimens from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in specimens
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

Therefore, the device described is a medical device, but specifically a patient examination glove, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.
