    Intended Use

    Powder Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves are disposable device intended for medical purposes that are worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner.

    Device Description

    The nitrile rubber is watertight under normal conditions of use. Its tensile properties cause it to conform to the hand, allowing movements necessary for the medical properties. ASTM conforming tensile properties create a glove that is strong and flexible. The glove is manufactured in accordance with the requirements of ASTM D6319-19 and ASTM D5151-19. This is a disposable device, intended for medical purposes, that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification for "Powder Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves." This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than providing a detailed study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria for an AI/ML-driven medical device. Therefore, much of the requested information regarding AI/ML device performance and testing (e.g., sample sizes for test/training sets, expert ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, standalone performance, effect size of human reader improvement with AI assistance) is not applicable to this document.

    However, the document does contain information about performance testing for the physical and biological properties of the gloves, which can be interpreted as "acceptance criteria" and "reported device performance."

    Here's the information extracted from the document that is relevant to "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" for these physical and biological properties:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample Size: The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes used for each specific test (e.g., number of gloves for watertightness, physical properties, or number of animals for biocompatibility). It references ASTM and ISO standards, which would define the required sample sizes for such tests.
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but the tests were performed on the "proposed device" (Powder Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves manufactured by Lienteh Technology Sdn Bhd in Malaysia). The tests are described as non-clinical "performance data of gloves based on animal studies, biocompatibility studies" and "performance data of gloves based on ASTM D6319-19 and FDA Watertight Test." This implies prospective laboratory testing of the manufactured product.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML device relying on human expert annotation for ground truth. The "ground truth" for the physical and biological properties is established by the specified ASTM/ISO standard testing methodologies and their defined criteria.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not Applicable. This document does not describe a study requiring human adjudication for test results; the outcomes are based on standardized laboratory measurements and observations according to specific protocols.

    5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

    • Not Applicable. This device is an examination glove, not an AI/ML diagnostic aid influencing human reader performance.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Not Applicable. This is not an AI algorithm. The performance described is the standalone performance of the physical glove itself.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • The "ground truth" is based on standardized testing protocols and criteria defined by:
      • ASTM D6319-19 (Standard Specification for Nitrile Examination Gloves for Medical Application)
      • ASTM D5151-19 (Standard Test Method for Detection of Holes in Medical Gloves)
      • ASTM D6124-06 (Reapproved 2017), (Standard test method for Residual powder on medical gloves)
      • ASTM D412-16 (for physical properties like tensile strength and elongation)
      • ISO 10993-10:2010 (Biological evaluation of medical devices- Part 10: Tests for Irritation and Skin Sensitization)
      • ISO 10993-11 (Biological Evaluation of Medical devices- Part 11: Tests for Systemic toxicity)
      • FDA watertight test AQL criteria (21 CFR 800.20)

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not Applicable. As above, it's not an AI/ML device.

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

    The document does not explicitly state the exact sample sizes for each specific test (e.g., number of gloves tested for pinholes, physical properties, or biocompatibility). However, it refers to standards such as "Single Sampling in accordance with ISO 2859 G1" for the watertight test, which implies a statistically determined sample size based on the Acceptable Quality Level (AQL). The tests appear to be performed on the final and finished devices.

    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but given the applicant's location (Novid PPE Sdn Bhd, Malaysia), the testing was likely conducted in Malaysia or a lab contracted by them. The tests are non-clinical, meaning they involve physical product testing and animal studies, not human patient data.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    Not applicable. This is a non-AI medical device (examination gloves). Ground truth for these tests is established by adherence to recognized international and national standards (e.g., ASTM, ISO) and laboratory protocols, not by expert consensus on clinical data.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    Not applicable. The tests are objective measurements against predefined criteria in established standards, not subjective assessments requiring expert adjudication.

    5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

    Not applicable. This is not an AI medical device.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    Not applicable. This is not an AI medical device.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    Intended Use

    A Patient examination glove is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. Tested for use with chemotherapy drugs as listed below.

    Device Description

    Powder Free Blue Nitrite Examination Gloves- Tested for Use with Chemotherapy Drugs.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document describes the FDA's 510(k) clearance for "Powder Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves - Tested for Use with Chemotherapy Drugs" (K182089). The primary focus of the performance data in this document relates to the gloves' resistance to permeation by chemotherapy drugs.

    Here's an analysis based on your request, using the provided text:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

    The "acceptance criteria" for gloves used with chemotherapy drugs are typically defined by regulatory bodies or consensus standards (like ASTM D6978, which is often referenced for chemotherapy glove testing) as a minimum breakthrough time. While explicit "acceptance criteria" values are not stated in this document as a separate column, the reported device performance clearly indicates whether the gloves meet the implied standard of extended protection (often >240 minutes for many drugs).

    Chemotherapy DrugConcentrationAcceptance Criteria (Implied by standard practice, e.g., ASTM D6978)Reported Device Performance (Breakthrough Detection Time)Meets Implied Criteria?
    Carmustine (BCNU)3.3 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired9.0 minNo (specifically cautioned against)
    Cisplatin1.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)20mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Dacarbazine (DTIC)10.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Doxorubicin Hydrochloride2.0mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Etoposide (Toposar)20.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Fluorouracil50.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Ifosfamide50.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Methotrexate25 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Mitomycin C0.5 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Mitoxantrone2.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Paclitaxel (Taxol)6.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes
    Thio-Tepa10.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired16.2 minNo (specifically cautioned against)
    Vincristine Sulfate1.0 mg/mlTypically >240 min desired>240 minYes

    Note: The document explicitly states: "Please Note that Carmustine and Thio-Tepa have low permeation time of less than 240 minutes. Do not use with Carmustine and Thio-Tepa." This indicates that for these two drugs, the gloves did not meet the standard expectation for chemotherapy glove use, and this limitation is clearly communicated.


    The subsequent questions (2-9) are primarily relevant to clinical studies involving AI or diagnostics that interpret medical data. This document describes the clearance of a medical device (gloves) based on laboratory testing for chemical permeation, not a clinical study involving human patients, expert readers, or AI algorithms. Therefore, most of these questions are not applicable to the provided information.

    However, I will address those that can be inferred or directly commented on:

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample Size for Test Set: Not explicitly stated in terms of number of gloves tested, but it would involve multiple samples of the glove material subjected to permeation testing according to a standard like ASTM D6978. For each chemotherapy drug listed, a sample of the glove material would be exposed, and the time until breakthrough is detected would be measured.
    • Data Provenance: The document implies laboratory testing conducted by the manufacturer or a certified lab. The country of origin of the data is not specified beyond the manufacturer being "Platinum Glove Industries Sdn Bhd" from "Malaysia." This is retrospective testing of the glove material properties.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • Not Applicable. This is not a study involving human interpretation of medical data where "ground truth" is established by experts. The "ground truth" in this context is the physical property of the glove's resistance to chemical permeation, measured by laboratory instrumentation and protocols (e.g., using a permeation cell and analytical detection methods).

    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not Applicable. See point 3.

    5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

    • Not Applicable. This is not a clinical or AI-based diagnostic study.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:

    • Not Applicable. This is not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

    • The "ground truth" in this context is the measured chemical permeation time of specific chemotherapy drugs through the glove material, determined through standardized laboratory testing (e.g., in accordance with ASTM D6978 or an equivalent standard).

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not Applicable. This is not an AI or machine learning study, so there is no "training set."

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not Applicable. See point 8.

    A Patient examination glove is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. Tested for use with chemotherapy drugs as listed below.

    Device Description

    Powder Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves - Tested for Use with 32 Chemotherapy Drugs and Fentanyl Citrate

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for "Powder Free Blue Nitrile Examination Gloves - Tested for use with 32 Chemotherapy Drugs and Fentanyl Citrate." This document primarily focuses on the substantial equivalence determination for a medical device (gloves) and its performance against chemical permeation for certain drugs.

    The request asks for information typically found in the clinical validation of AI/ML-based medical devices or diagnostic tools. The provided document does not contain any information related to AI/ML device performance, test sets, ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, or MRMC studies. It is a regulatory clearance for a physical medical device (gloves) based on chemical permeation testing, not an AI system.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The document details chemical resistance and breakthrough times, not AI algorithm performance.

    However, if we were to interpret the document's content as "acceptance criteria" and "device performance" in the context of the gloves' chemical resistance, the information could be presented as follows:


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Based on Chemical Permeation Testing for Gloves)

    Given the nature of the device (examination gloves) and the provided data, the "Acceptance Criteria" are implicitly derived from the testing standards for medical gloves' resistance to chemotherapy drugs and fentanyl citrate. The "Device Performance" refers to the measured breakthrough times. For regulated medical gloves, the expectation is generally to demonstrate sufficient resistance (i.e., a "breakthrough detection time" that meets or exceeds a certain threshold, often >240 minutes, indicating prolonged protection).

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Note: The document highlights "Please Note that the following Drugs have extremely low permeation times : Carmustine : 54,8 minutes and Thio-Tepa: 46.9 minutes," indicating these may be areas where performance is lower relative to other tested drugs, but still acceptable under relevant standards for their intended use and risk mitigation strategies.


    For the remainder of the questions, as stated, the provided document does not contain this information as it pertains to AI/ML device validation, not the direct chemical permeation testing of physical gloves.

    • 2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. This refers to the number of gloves tested for chemical resistance, not a dataset for an AI model. The document does not specify the exact number of gloves or samples, nor their country of origin for testing purposes. The testing is laboratory-based chemical permeation.
    • 3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for chemical permeation is established by analytical chemistry methods (e.g., spectroscopy) that detect the breakthrough of a chemical through the glove material over time, not by human expert opinion.
    • 4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable. Chemical permeation testing uses objective measurement, not human adjudication.
    • 5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable. This applies to diagnostic AI, not chemical resistance of gloves.
    • 6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This applies to diagnostic AI, not chemical resistance of gloves.
    • 7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): The ground truth for glove performance is the precise measurement of chemical permeation/breakthrough time under controlled laboratory conditions, typically following standards like ASTM D6978.
    • 8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device.
    • 9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document does not explicitly state the exact sample size for each specific test. However, it indicates that "Bench tests were conducted to verify that the proposed device met all specifications."

    • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated as a numerical value for each test. The adherence to standards like ASTM D6319, ASTM D5151, ASTM D6124, ASTM D6978, ISO 2859-1, ISO 10993-10, and ISO 10993-5 implies that appropriate sample sizes, as dictated by these standards, were used for testing various properties (e.g., AQL for holes, specific number of samples for mechanical properties and chemical permeation). ISO 2859-1 specifically relates to "Sampling Procedures for Inspection by Attributes – Part I: Sampling Plans Indexed by Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) for Lot-by-Lot Inspection," indicating a quality control sampling approach for certain attributes.
    • Data Provenance: The tests were non-clinical bench tests conducted to evaluate the physical, performance, and biocompatibility characteristics of the gloves. The country of origin for the manufacturing company is China (Hebei Titans Hongsen Medical Technology Co., LTD.). The submission is for a medical device (gloves), and the testing appears to be prospective in nature, conducted specifically for this 510(k) submission to demonstrate compliance with standards.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

    This type of information is not applicable to this submission. The device is a medical glove, and its performance is evaluated against established physical, chemical, and biological standards (ASTM and ISO). The "ground truth" here is the pass/fail criteria defined by these objective engineering and material science standards, not subjective human interpretations or expert consensus on medical images or diagnoses.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    This is not applicable as the evaluation is based on objective, standardized test methods with clear pass/fail criteria, not on subjective expert review requiring adjudication.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs. Without AI Assistance

    This is not applicable. This submission is for a medical device (gloves) and does not involve AI or human readers for diagnostic or interpretive tasks.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

    This is not applicable. This submission is not for an algorithm or AI device.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" in this context refers to the established scientific and engineering standards and their predefined pass/fail criteria. These include:

    • ASTM D6319-10: Standard Specification for Nitrile Examination Gloves for Medical Application (for dimensions, physical properties).
    • ASTM D5151-06: Standard Test Method for Detection of Holes in Medical Gloves.
    • ASTM D6124-06: Standard Test Method for Residual Powder on Medical Gloves.
    • ASTM D6978-05: Standard Practice for Assessment of Medical Gloves to Permeation by Chemotherapy Drugs (for chemical permeation).
    • ISO 2859-1:1999: Sampling Procedures for Inspection by Attributes – Part I: Sampling Plans Indexed by Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) for Lot-by-Lot Inspection.
    • ISO 10993-10: 2010: Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 10: Tests for irritation and skin sensitization.
    • ISO 10993-5:2009: Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 5: Tests For In Vitro Cytotoxicity.

    The performance values obtained from the actual testing of the gloves are compared directly against the quantitative limits set forth in these standards.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    This is not applicable. The device is a physical product (gloves) and does not involve a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI models.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    This is not applicable for the same reason as point 8.
