No
The 510(k) summary describes a standard examination glove and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

No.
The device (examination glove) is intended to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and the patient, not to treat or cure a disease or condition in the patient.

No
Explanation: The device is a patient examination glove used to prevent contamination, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical product (gloves) and there is no mention of software components or functions.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. They are used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions.
  • This device is a patient examination glove. Its intended use is to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and the patient. It is a barrier device, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological samples.

The description clearly indicates a physical barrier device used for infection control, not a product used for in vitro testing of biological specimens.
