Intended Use
This powder-free surgeon's glove is a disposable device made of synthetic rubber intended to be worn by operating room personnel to protect a surgical wound from contamination.
Device Story
Sterile, disposable, powder-free surgical glove; manufactured from synthetic polyisoprene rubber. Features anti-slip finish, independent thumb, and tapered mechanically locking cuffs to prevent roll-down. Coated with emollient formulation containing Glycerol, Gluconolactone, D-Sorbitol, and Provitamin-B. Used by operating room personnel to provide a protective barrier between the wearer and the surgical site, reducing risk of wound contamination. Device is hand-specific and provided sterile.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by non-clinical bench testing, including biocompatibility (primary skin irritation, guinea pig maximization per ISO 10993-10) and physical performance testing (dimensions, physical properties, freedom from holes, and powder residual per ASTM D3577 and 21 CFR 800.20).
Technological Characteristics
Material: Synthetic polyisoprene rubber. Design: Hand-specific, beaded cuff, independent thumb. Coating: Glycerol, Gluconolactone, D-Sorbitol, Provitamin-B. Standards: Meets ASTM D3577 for physical properties and powder residual (≤2.0 mg/glove); meets 21 CFR 800.20 for freedom from holes. Sterilization: Sterile. Connectivity: None.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by operating room personnel as a protective barrier for surgical wounds. No specific age or gender restrictions; intended for use in surgical environments.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A non-powdered surgeon's glove is a device intended to be worn on the hands of operating room personnel to protect a surgical wound from contamination. A non-powdered surgeon's glove does not incorporate powder for purposes other than manufacturing. The final finished glove includes only residual powder from manufacturing.
