The K5 Wheelchair is to provide mobility to persons limited to a sitting position.
The K5 series is a mechanical wheelchair which is a manually operated device with wheels that is intended for medical purposes to provide mobility to persons restricted to a sitting position. It can be folded for transport by bring the two sides together. The manual wheelchair incorporates a main frame, a seat, two adjustable footrests, 2 removable footrests and four wheels. The larger rear wheels have hand rims of slightly smaller diameter projecting just beyond the tire. These allows the user to manoeuvre the chair by pushing them on without requiring them to grasp the tires. The manual wheelchairs have brakes that bear on the tires of the rear wheels and two push handles at the upper rear of the frame to allow for manual propulsion by an assistant.
Main Components:
Main frame, back upholstery, seat upholstery, handgrip, armrest, front wheel, rear wheel, hand rim, crossbar, footplates, brake, leg rest.
The device can be operated indoors, or outdoors on dry, level surfaces composed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt under normal driving conditions.

Dear Eva Li:
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 (the 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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device"
