No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and barrier function of a medical glove, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

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

No
Explanation: The intended use of the device is described as "worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This function is for protection and hygiene, not for identifying a disease or condition. The performance studies also focus on physical properties of the glove (e.g., water leak, tensile strength, thickness) rather than diagnostic accuracy.

No

The device is a physical examination glove, not a software application. The description and performance studies focus on material properties and physical dimensions.

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 "disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner." This describes a barrier device used externally.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description and performance data focus on physical properties of the glove (water leak, tensile strength, dimensions, etc.) and its function as a barrier. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on testing body fluids or tissues.

Therefore, this device fits the description of a medical device used for protection and hygiene, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
