Worn by healthcare and operating room personnel to provide a protective barrier against contamination from patient fluids, waste, or environment. Device is a single-use, disposable physical barrier. No electronic or mechanical components. ## Clinical Evidence Clinical study conducted on 200 human subjects using the Modified Draize test. Results demonstrated no potential for dermal irritation or sensitization, supporting the 'hypoallergenic' labeling claim. ## Technological Characteristics Material: Latex. Powder-free (<2 mg/glove). Protein content <50 µg/g. Meets ASTM D3578-91 standards for dimensions, tensile strength (min 21 MPa before aging), and ultimate elongation (min 700% before aging). Watertight integrity tested per FDA 1000 ml test. ## Regulatory 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. ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
