The device description clearly states it is a "SURGEON'S GLOVE," which is a physical hardware device made of rubber. 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 "SURGEON'S GLOVE" intended to be worn by operating room personnel to protect a surgical wound from contamination. This is a physical barrier device used during a medical procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs typically involve analyzing biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description "SURGEON'S GLOVE, STERILE - TYPE II" further reinforces its nature as a physical barrier.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for protection during surgery, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
