No
The 510(k) summary describes a latex examination glove and contains no mention of AI, ML, or any related technologies.

No
The device is described as a glove worn on the hand to prevent contamination, which is a barrier function rather than a therapeutic one.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a disposable patient examination glove worn to prevent contamination, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly indicates it is a physical examination glove, not a software application.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to prevent contamination between patient and examiner by being worn on the hand. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the material (latex), protein content, and form (glove). It doesn't describe any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample. There is no mention of detecting diseases, conditions, or markers.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This glove does not fit that description.
