No
The summary describes a standard medical glove and contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

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

No
Explanation: The device, a patient examination glove, is for preventing contamination and is worn on the hand or finger. It does not perform any diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical product (Latex Patient Examination Gloves) and does not mention any software components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for health issues.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a "patient examination glove" intended to be worn on the hand or finger to prevent contamination. This is a barrier device used for infection control during physical examinations.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device does not perform any test on a biological sample to provide diagnostic information. Its purpose is purely protective.

The information provided about the device's intended use and description confirms it is a medical device, but specifically a Class I or Class II medical device (depending on the specific regulations and risk classification), not an IVD.
