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

No
The device, a medical glove, is primarily intended to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and the patient. It does not actively treat or alleviate a disease, injury, or medical condition.

No
This device is a medical glove designed to prevent contamination, not to diagnose a medical condition. Its function is protective, not analytical or diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical medical glove, not a software application.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and the patient by being worn on the hand. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic function performed in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description is of a physical barrier (a glove) with specifications related to its material and protein content. It doesn't describe any components or processes used to diagnose a condition or collect and analyze samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document lacks any mention of:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of a disease or condition.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this medical glove is a barrier device and does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.
