The device is described as a medical glove for preventing contamination, not for treating a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a "medical glove" worn to prevent contamination. Its intended use does not involve diagnosing any medical condition, disease, or injury.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Powder-Free Nitrile Examination Glove," which is a physical hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as a medical glove worn on the hand to prevent contamination. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description is of a physical glove made of nitrile.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This glove does not perform such a function.
