Used in clinical settings; OTC availability.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data required. Bench testing performed to verify compliance with ASTM D6319 (physical dimensions, freedom from holes, powder residuals) and ASTM D6978-05 (chemotherapy drug permeation). Biocompatibility testing confirmed non-irritating and non-sensitizing properties.
Technological Characteristics
Nitrile material; powder-free; cornflower blue. Dimensions and physical properties meet ASTM D6319. Freedom from holes meets 21 CFR 800.20 and ASTM D6319. Residual powder <2mg/glove per ASTM D6124. Chemotherapy resistance tested per ASTM D6978.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a disposable patient examination glove worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. Tested for use with specific chemotherapy drugs.
Regulatory Classification
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.
