No

The device description clearly states it is a "Patient Examination Glove," which is a physical, hardware device. There is no mention of software functionality.

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 device is a "patient examination glove" worn on the hand or finger to prevent contamination. This is a physical barrier device used during patient examination.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any testing of biological samples, analysis of bodily fluids, or any diagnostic purpose related to analyzing samples outside the body.

The device is a medical device, but it falls under a different category than IVDs.
