More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a patient examination glove, and the description focuses on material properties and performance standards, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device, a patient examination glove, is intended to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and patients, not to treat or diagnose a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device, a patient examination glove, is explicitly described as preventing contamination, not as analyzing, diagnosing, or monitoring any medical condition.

No

The device description clearly identifies the device as a physical patient examination glove, which is a hardware component. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is a "patient examination glove" worn on the hand to prevent contamination between healthcare personnel and the patient. This is a barrier device for infection control, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of disease.
  • Device Description: The description classifies it as a Class I device under the General and Plastic Surgery Device panel, specifically for patient examination gloves. This classification is consistent with a barrier device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting specific analytes (proteins, DNA, antibodies, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

The testing described focuses on the physical properties of the glove (dimensions, water fill test), skin irritation, and powder content, which are relevant to its function as a barrier device.

Therefore, this device is a medical device used for infection control, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

The standards used for Shijiazhuang Great Eagle Plastics Products Co., Ltd. glove production are based on ASTM-D-5250-92. All testing meets requirements for Physical and Dimensions Testing conducted on gloves, Inspection Level S-2, AQL 4.0.

The FDA 1000 ml. Water Fill Test was also conducted with samplings of AQL 2.5, Inspection Level S-4, meeting these requirements. Primary Skin irritation and Skin Sensitization (allergic contact dermatitis) testing was conducted with results showing no primary skin irritant or sensitization reactions.

A USP Iodine Test for Starch at finished inspection is conducted to insure that our gloves meet our "powder-free' claims. We adhere to all USP Iodine test methodogy and testing conducted revealed passing results.
