Used by surgeons and operating room personnel to provide a protective barrier between the wearer and the patient, fluids, waste, or the environment. The device is worn on the hands during surgical procedures to prevent cross-contamination. It functions as a physical barrier, meeting ASTM D3577-91 Type 2 standards for physical properties, dimensions, and watertight integrity. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. The device was tested for compliance with ASTM D3577-91 Type 2 standards, including watertight (1000 ml) testing (S-4, AQL 1.5), dimensions (length and palm width), and physical properties (tensile strength and ultimate elongation) before and after aging. Results met or exceeded all ASTM requirements. ## Technological Characteristics Material: Styrene-butadiene block copolymer. Form factor: Powdered surgical glove. Standards: ASTM D3577-91 Type 2. Performance: Watertight (1000 ml) per S-4, AQL 1.5. Physical properties: Tensile strength >17 MPa (before aging), >12 MPa (after aging); Ultimate elongation >650% (before aging), >490% (after aging). ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - Elastyren Surgical Glove ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
