No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a standard examination glove, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No.
A patient examination glove is intended for protection and contamination prevention, not for treating or rehabilitating a medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a "Patient Examination Glove" intended to be worn on the hand or finger to prevent contamination. Its function is to provide a barrier, not to diagnose medical conditions or provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Powderfree Latex Examination Gloves Polymer Coated," which is a physical hardware device.

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 between the examiner and the patient. This is a barrier device used for protection and hygiene during physical 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. This glove does not perform any such test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples, chemical reactions, or diagnostic procedures, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.

Therefore, the device described is a medical device, but specifically a Class I or Class II medical device (depending on the specific regulations and risk classification) used for barrier protection, not an IVD.
