More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a basic, mechanical wheelchair with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No
A therapeutic device is used to treat or alleviate a medical condition. A wheelchair provides mobility assistance and does not directly treat a medical condition.

No
The device description clearly states it is a wheelchair intended for mobility, not for diagnosing any medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of a rigid, mechanical, steel frame and upholstery, indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.

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 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, and upholstery. There is no mention of reagents, calibrators, controls, or any components used for testing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD-related information: The document does not contain any information typically associated with IVDs, such as:
    • Mentions of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Assays or tests
    • Measurement of analytes
    • Diagnostic claims

Therefore, the AXS-1 Basic Wheelchair is a medical device, but it falls under a different classification than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Estrin:

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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
