Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a standard examination glove, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No
The device is described as a "patient Examination Glove" intended to "prevent contamination between patient and examiner," which is a protective barrier function, not a therapeutic one. It does not actively treat or alleviate a medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device is a patient examination glove, intended to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. It does not perform any diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical examination glove, which is a hardware device, not software.

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 patient and examiner by being worn on the hand or finger. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description is for a glove, a physical barrier.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This glove does not fit that description.
