Device Description
The Model 587 Broda Manual Wheelchair is a manually operated, user propelled mechanical wheelchair. The intended use is to provide mobility to persons that may be limited to a sitting position. The product consists primarily of a rigid steel frame, large rear wheels with hand rims for propelling the chair, and smaller front pivoting casters for steering and turning. This is a non-folding rigid type of wheelchair which can be customized for use by patients that weigh up to 250 lbs. Seat width ranges from a minimum of 14'' wide to a maximum of 20'' wide in two inch increments, with the 16" and 18" widths offered as standard. Seat depths range from a minimum of 15.5" deep to a maximum of 20" deep in 1.5" increments, with the 17" depth offered as standard. Seat to floor dimensions range from 15'' high to 20'' high in 1" increments, with the 19" height offered as standard. Back height ranges from a minimum of 24" high to a maximum of 32" high in 2" increments, with the 24" height offered as standard. The rigid frame is constructed of round, steel tubing that is MIG welded. The tubing is 1" outside diameter (O.D.) with a wall thickness of 0.065". A rigid, non-folding frame is not used on the predicate device and does not affect the safety and effectiveness of the chair. The Broda Model 587 Wheelchair offers up to 22 degrees of seat tilt with infinite positioning. The seat tilt controls slumping and sliding, reduces the reliance on restraints, and increases the general comfort level for the occupant. This specification is not available on the predicate devices and does not affect the safety and effectiveness of the chair. The seat and back are strapped with vinyl strapping that is riveted to the steel tube. The strap is 0.128" thick and 1.5" wide. The strapping is used to better distribute the weight of the occupant, hence reduce the contact pressures on the occupant, which provides added comfort. The strapping also controls heat and moisture buildup and can prevent skin breakdown. The strapping is further covered with a woven polyester/spandex material called Triptex. The strapping is not used on the predicate device and does not affect the safety and effectiveness of the chair.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description details a purely mechanical, manually operated wheelchair with no mention of computational or data-driven features.

Yes
The device is intended to provide mobility to persons that may be limited to a sitting position, and its features (seat tilt, strapping) are designed to control slumping and sliding, reduce reliance on restraints, increase comfort, and prevent skin breakdown. These aspects indicate a therapeutic purpose.

No
Explanation: The device description clearly states that the Broda Model 587 Manual Wheelchair is a "manually operated, user propelled mechanical wheelchair" intended to "provide mobility to persons that may be limited to a sitting position." There is no indication throughout the document that it is used for diagnosis of any medical condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, mechanical wheelchair constructed of steel tubing, wheels, casters, and strapping. It describes hardware components and their physical properties and testing. There is no mention of software as a component or function of the device.

Based on the provided information, the Broda Model 587 Manual Wheelchair is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide mobility to persons limited to a sitting position. This is a mechanical function related to physical support and movement, not the diagnosis of disease or other conditions through the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical wheelchair with a frame, wheels, casters, and seating components. There is no mention of reagents, calibrators, controls, or any components used for testing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD device, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases

The device is clearly a medical device intended for physical support and mobility, falling under a different regulatory category than IVD devices.

Dear Mr. Mosenkis:

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 (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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898.
