No
The 510(k) summary describes standard surgical gloves and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities, image processing, or data sets for training/testing.

No
The device is described as surgical gloves intended to protect a surgical wound from contamination, which is a protective barrier function, not a therapeutic intervention.

No
Explanation: The device is a surgical glove, intended to protect a surgical wound from contamination, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device is described as surgical gloves made of natural rubber latex, which are physical hardware components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that these gloves are for use in medical procedures to protect a surgical wound from contamination and to be worn by operating room personnel. This is a protective barrier function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the material (natural rubber latex) and protein content, which are relevant to the physical properties and potential for allergic reactions, not diagnostic capabilities.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility, physical properties (meeting ASTM standards), and protein content, all of which relate to the safety and effectiveness of the glove as a barrier device. There are no studies related to diagnostic accuracy or performance.

In vitro diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions. This description does not align with the purpose of these surgical gloves.
