No
The intended use of the device is for examination to prevent contamination, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly identifies the device as a physical examination glove, not a software product.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to be worn on the hand of healthcare personnel to prevent contamination. This is a barrier device used externally.
  • Device Description: It's described as a "Nitrile Examination Glove."
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body. This glove is a protective barrier used on the body of the healthcare provider.
