K960842 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the LATEX EXAM GLOVE WITH HYPOALLERGENIC LABELING (POWDERED). Classified as Latex Patient Examination Glove (product code LYY), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Crocker Industrial Resources Sdn. Bhd. (Annapolis Juntion, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 19, 1997 after a review of 386 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General Hospital FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 880.6250 - the FDA general hospital device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the General Hospital review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
