A nitrile patient examination glove is a disposable device made of nitrile rubber intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner
Black Nitrile Powder-Free Patient Examination Glove, Non-Sterile is manufactured from nitrile rubber. Innersurface of gloves undergoes surface treatment process to produce a smooth surface that assists the user in donning the gloves with ease without using any lubricant such as powder or silicone on the glove surface. The glove is ambidextrous, i.e., can be worn on right or left hand.
The provided document describes the non-clinical performance testing for a medical device: "Black Nitrile Powder-Free Patient Examination Glove, Non-Sterile." This submission is a 510(k) premarket notification to the FDA, demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance:
- Test Set (Current Device):
- Physical Properties (Tensile Strength, Ultimate Elongation): Not explicitly stated, but tests were performed for different glove sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL). ASTM D412 and D6319 typically specify sample sizes.
- Dimensions (Length, Width, Thickness): Not explicitly stated, but performed for all glove sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL). ASTM D3767 specifies measurement practices.
- Watertight: 315 pieces (for a batch size of 150,001 to 500,000).
- Residual Powder: 5 pieces.
- Biocompatibility (Primary Skin Irritation, Dermal Sensitization, Acute Systemic Toxicity): Not explicitly stated for each test, but typically involves animal subjects (e.g., guinea pigs for sensitization, Swiss albino mice for systemic toxicity).
- Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective. Given it's a 510(k) submission for a new device, the testing would be prospective for this specific device.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth for the Test Set:
This document describes non-clinical performance testing of a physical medical device (gloves). The ground truth for this type of device is established through standardized laboratory tests according to recognized ASTM and ISO standards, not via expert consensus or clinical evaluation in the same way as, for example, an AI diagnostic tool. Therefore, the concept of "number of experts" and their "qualifications" for establishing ground truth in this context doesn't directly apply as it would for a clinical study or AI performance evaluation. The "experts" are implicitly the technicians and scientists performing the tests according to the defined standards.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
Not applicable. The tests are objective measurements and evaluations against specified pass/fail criteria from recognized standards (ASTM, ISO). There is no "adjudication" between multiple human readers or interpretations.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:
No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is specifically relevant for AI-powered diagnostic devices or imaging tools where human readers are involved in interpreting results. This submission is for a physical medical device (gloves) and focuses on non-clinical performance characteristics.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study:
Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or AI.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used:
The ground truth used is based on:
- Standardized Test Methods: Adherence to established and recognized ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) and ISO (International Organization for Standardization) standards.
- Quantitative Measurements: Direct measurements of physical properties (tensile strength, elongation, dimensions, powder content).
- Qualitative Assessments: Outcomes of biocompatibility tests (irritation, sensitization, toxicity) as defined by ISO standards on animal models.
- Statistical Sampling: For watertightness, an Acceptance Quality Limit (AQL) statistical sampling plan (ISO 2859) is used.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set:
Not applicable. There is no concept of a "training set" for this type of medical device which undergoes standardized physical and chemical testing. This is not an AI or machine learning model.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
Not applicable, as there is no training set. The device's performance is evaluated directly against pre-established, widely accepted industry standards and regulatory requirements for medical examination gloves.
