No
The device is a standard medical glove and the summary does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
This device, a medical glove, is intended to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and patients, and its function is not to treat or cure a disease or condition.

No
The device is a medical glove, designed to prevent contamination, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device is a physical medical glove made of latex, not a software application. The description focuses on material properties and physical performance tests.

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 healthcare personnel and the patient by being worn on the hand. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: It's described as a Class I latex patient examination glove. This is a physical barrier device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information. The performance studies focus on physical properties, water tightness, biocompatibility, and residual protein levels – all related to the glove's function as a barrier and its safety for the user and patient.

IVD devices are 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.

§ 880.6250 Non-powdered patient examination glove.

(a)
Identification. A non-powdered patient examination glove is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. A non-powdered patient examination glove does not incorporate powder for purposes other than manufacturing. The final finished glove includes only residual powder from manufacturing.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). The device, when it is a finger cot, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 880.9.
