AXS-1 Lite Wheelchairs are indicated for providing mobility to persons limited to a sitting position

Device Description

The Access Point Medical Explorer Wheelchair is a wheelchair that provides mobility to persons limited to a sitting position. It consists of rigid, mechanical. steel frame and leatherette or nylon upholstery that meets FN102-1: Assessment of the Ignitability of Upholstered Furniture. It has two 24" rear wheels and two 8" front casters for turning and maneuverability. The Access Point Medical Transport Series Transport Chair is intended for use indoors, over smooth Transport Series. Transport Chair is and China C standard indoor flooring surfaces, concrete, asphalt and packed dirt) that are free of large obstacles and inclines greater that 9 degrees.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the AXS-1 Lite Wheelchair (originally submitted as Explorer Wheelchair). It primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a detailed study with acceptance criteria and results.

Therefore, much of the requested information cannot be extracted directly from this document. However, I can provide what is available and indicate when information is not present.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

This document does not describe a clinical study or a specific test set with a sample size for evaluating device performance in humans. The device's substantial equivalence is established through conformance to recognized standards, which typically involve laboratory testing, not human subject testing in the context of this 510(k). The "data provenance" in terms of country of origin or retrospective/prospective is not applicable here as it's not a clinical study.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

Not applicable. This document does not describe a study involving expert assessment or ground truth establishment in a clinical context.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable. No test set requiring adjudication is described.

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 wheelchair, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive technology that would involve human readers or AI assistance in a clinical read.

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

Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

For the safety and performance claims, the "ground truth" is defined by the compliance with the listed international and national standards (ISO, EN, and 21 CFR regulations). These standards outline specific test methods and criteria that, when met, are considered evidence of safety and effectiveness for a device of this class.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device that would have a training set.

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

Not applicable. As above, there is no training set for this mechanical device.
