Device Description

Natural Latex Examination Glove with Protein Content labeling claim 137 micrograms or less

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA for "Health-Plus, Sanitex, Reliance Pre-Powdered Latex Examination Gloves with Protein Labeling Claim (137 Micrograms or Less)." This document is a clearance letter for a medical device (latex examination gloves) and not a study report for a diagnostic AI device. Therefore, it does not contain information about acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, ground truth, or adjudication methods typically found in studies for AI-powered medical devices.

The letter explicitly states that the device is "substantially equivalent" to devices marketed prior to May 28, 1976. This means the clearance is based on a comparison to an existing device, rather than a clinical study establishing novel performance metrics or AI capabilities.

Given the nature of the document, the requested information about acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets them cannot be extracted.
