## Indications for Use

A 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.

## Device Story

Esteem Stretchy Synthetic with Neu-Thera is a disposable vinyl patient examination glove. Designed for use by healthcare professionals to prevent cross-contamination between patient and examiner. The device is worn on the hands or fingers during medical examinations. It is provided powder-free and features a beaded cuff. The glove serves as a physical barrier to protect both the patient and the clinician.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included primary skin irritation and guinea pig maximization studies, which showed no irritation or sensitization potential. Physical performance testing confirmed compliance with ASTM D5250-00e4 for tensile strength and 21 CFR 800.20 for barrier defects.

## Technological Characteristics

Vinyl material; powder-free; beaded cuff; disposable. Meets ASTM D5250-00e4 standards for tensile strength and barrier integrity. Complies with 21 CFR 800.20 for barrier defects.

## 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.

Dear Mr. Devine:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
