  • Device Description: While "Not Found" is listed, the intended use clearly describes a physical barrier device (gloves).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
