The 510(k) summary describes a standard powered wheelchair with a joystick controller and automatic braking. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML capabilities in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is indicated to provide enhanced mobility for physically challenged patients due to various medical conditions, aiming to provide a therapeutic benefit by addressing their physical limitations.
No
The device is described as a powered wheelchair intended to provide mobility to physically challenged individuals. Its function is to assist with movement, not to diagnose medical conditions or provide diagnostic information.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, battery-operated powered wheelchair with a frame, wheels, seat, armrests, and a joystick controller, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide mobility to physically challenged persons. This is a therapeutic and assistive device, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a mechanical and electrical device for transportation, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Tango Series Powered Wheelchair does not fit this description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Tango Powered Wheelchair (Model BP1 & BP1A) is indicated to provide enhanced mobility to physically challenged persons/patients who are limited to a sitting position for various medical reasons. Some, but not all of the specific indications for use for powered wheelchairs are: paraplegia, quadriple muscular dystrophy, muscular sclerosis, lower limb amputation, neurologic or other muscular diseases which render limbs too weak or unstable for normal use or activity.

Device Description
The Tango Powered Wheelchair is an indoor/outdoor powered wheelchair that is battery operated. The two models are identical, except the frame. The BP1 has a steel frame and the BP1A has an aluminum frame. Both models are operated by a joystick controller for an attendant and the ability. The available options methods allow the attendant may use the chair as a free-wheel device. The ability to disengage the wheel motor gears of that each wheel and when the controller is released. Both models can automatically fold for easy transportation and reassembly and use.

- CHOICE Powered Wheelchair by American Medical Technologies, Inc. and cleared for marketing * under 510(k) K963808.
Rationale for SE:
The Tango powered wheelchair is substantially equivalent in safety, efficacy, technology and intented use to its predicate devices. The construction of the tubular frame, battery operation, two motors and automatic to its predicate oc nees. The constructions for the instructions for their use are supplied with both ofaking Systems are an Simmar. Datery only got are similar, although they have minor variations on these parameters.

Summary of Safety and Effectiveness
1
Some, but not all of the specific indications for use for powered wheelchairs are: paraplegia, quadriple muscular dystrophy, muscular sclerosis, lower limb amputation, neurologic or other muscular diseases which render limbs too weak or unstable for normal use or activity.
Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence:
The Explorer Powered Wheelchair is an indoor/outdoor powered wheelchair that is battery operated. The product has a metal frame with four wheels, an adjustable seat with armrests, and a controller attached to one armrest. The controller allows the rider to control the movement of the chair. The chair can be disassembled for transport and is provided with a battery charger. These features are all similar to the Tango model wheel chairs.
The Choice Powered Wheelchair is available with a 16 or 18 inch wide wheel base and with seat widths of 14 to 20 inches and seat depths of 14 to 24 inches. The wheelbase and adjustable seats are two features that differ from the Tango. The Choice battery operated wheelchair is constructed of welded fabricated steel. The Choice wheelchair has two motors to drive the rear wheels powered by two 12 volt batteries wired in series to provide 24 volts DC. A joystick controller or optional "sip-n-puff" controls the functions of the Choice wheelchair. The Tango does not offer the "sip-n-puff" option because our wheelchair does not have software programming and therefore has fewer equivalent features than the Explorer wheelchair.
Conclusion:
The Tango Powered Wheelchair, Models BP1 and BP1A are similar in design, construction, safety, efficacy, controller, braking systems and voltage use to other currently legally marketed devices for the same intended uses. Compliance with voluntary standards and guidance documents published by international agencies, as well as by the Food and Drug Administration. The Tango as well as its comparative equivalent devices has passed EMC testing for Electromagnetic Immunity. We feel that although there are minor variations, the device submitted is substantially equivalent to already legally marketed devices on the market.
Testing Conducted:
Tests listed in the Guidance Document for the Preparation of Premarket Notification for Mechanical and Powered Wheelchairs, and Motorized Three Wheeled Vehicles, July 1995, were conducted as well as other international compliance/conformity tests and are identified within the submission.
Performance Testing:
Comparative performance testing and clinical evaluations were not conducted nor submitted as part of this 510(k).
