No
The device description details a standard mechanical wheelchair with no mention of AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
A therapeutic device is used to treat or prevent a medical condition. A wheelchair provides mobility support but does not directly treat or prevent a medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device description states it is a wheelchair intended for mobility, not for diagnosing any medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of a rigid, mechanical, steel frame, wheels, and upholstery, indicating it is a physical 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 "providing mobility to persons limited to a sitting position." This describes a physical aid for movement, not a test performed on biological samples to diagnose or monitor a medical condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical wheelchair with a frame, wheels, and upholstery. This is consistent with a mobility device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detection or measurement of analytes
    • Diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions through in vitro testing.

Therefore, the AXS-1 Lite Wheelchair is a mobility device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Dear Dr. Estrin:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of April 11, 2005 regarding the incorrect trade name listed as Explorer Wheelchair. The correct trade name is listed above.

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. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
