AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the submission for a power wheelchair, which is a medical device. Based on the information provided, this is not a device that relies on algorithms, AI, or specific performance metrics that would require an "acceptance criteria" table in the traditional sense of AI/ML-driven devices.

Instead, the acceptance criteria for this type of device are met through adherence to established industry standards and regulations for safety and functionality. The study that proves the device meets these criteria is the non-clinical testing described in the document.

Here's the breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:


1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated as a number of individual units. The testing involved "the AMYPOWER ALLTRACK series power wheelchair," implying potentially one or a representative sample of units undergoing the specified non-clinical tests.
  • Data Provenance: The testing was conducted in accordance with international and North American standards (ISO & ANSI/RESNA). The manufacturer, Amylior Inc., is based in Quebec, Canada, suggesting the testing likely occurred to satisfy Canadian and US regulatory requirements for market clearance. The data is based on non-clinical testing, which is a prospective assessment of the device's physical performance characteristics against defined standards.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

  • This information is not applicable as the "ground truth" for this device is established by objective engineering and safety standards (ISO, ANSI/RESNA), not by expert consensus on clinical data interpretation. The evaluation is against measurable physical properties and functional requirements.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

  • Not applicable. Adjudication methods like "2+1" typically apply to cases where multiple human readers are interpreting complex data (e.g., medical images) and their disagreements need to be resolved by a third party. For a power wheelchair's non-clinical safety and performance testing, the results are objectively measured against established criteria; there is no subjective interpretation requiring adjudication.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

  • Not applicable. This device is a mechanical power wheelchair, not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic or assistive device that would involve human readers or comparative effectiveness studies with AI assistance.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only, without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

  • Not applicable. This device is a mechanical power wheelchair and does not contain artificial intelligence algorithms. Its performance is inherent in its design and construction, and validated through physical testing against standards.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

  • The ground truth is based on established international and national engineering, safety, and performance standards (ISO EMC Standard 7176-14 and ANSI/RESNA WC vol. 1 & vol. 2, Section 21:1998 amendments). Compliance with these objective standards serves as the "ground truth" for device acceptability.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable. This device is a mechanical power wheelchair; it does not involve machine learning or a "training set" in the context of AI/ML models.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

  • Not applicable. As stated above, there is no training set for this type of device.
