The 510(k) summary describes a standard patient exam glove with no mention of AI or ML technology.

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

No
Explanation: The device is a patient exam glove, intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device is described as a "patient exam glove," which is a physical, disposable device intended to be worn on the hand. This clearly indicates a hardware component, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to prevent contamination between patient and examiner by being worn on the hand. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.
  • Device Description: While "Not Found" for the device description, the intended use clearly points away from diagnostic activity.
  • No Mention of Diagnostic Modalities: There is no mention of image processing, AI, or any other technology typically associated with diagnostic devices.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. A patient exam glove does not fit this definition.
