AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a mechanical wheelchair (LERADO, AVANTICARE Mechanical Wheelchair, MS-8000). The document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information, based solely on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (LERADO, AVANTICARE Mechanical Wheelchair, MS-8000)

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Intended UseTo provide mobility to persons restricted to a sitting position.
Applicable Performance StandardsMeets applicable performance requirements as specified in ANSI/RESNA WC vol. I and ISO 7176 Wheelchair Standards.
Flame RetardancyUpholstery fabric meets the California Technical Bulletin CAL 117 standard for flame retardant.
Weight Limit100 kgs (same as predicate device).
FoldabilityCan be disassembled for transport and is easily foldable. Mainframe is foldable (same as predicate device).
Overall DimensionsSimilar to predicate device (with some differences noted, not impacting safety).
Upholstery MaterialBack upholstery material is the same resistance-ignitability fabric as the predicate device.
Seat HeightsSmall difference compared to predicate device, but not leading to any safety hazard.
Hanger and Rear Axle DesignsSame as predicate device.
Caster SizesDifferent from predicate device; predicate device's caster size is smaller and moves more easily.
Overall AppearanceDifferences exist between the new device and predicate device, but these are noted as "not safety aspect."
Weight and SizeLarger than predicate device, intended to make the user feel more comfortable during transport.
Optional AccessoriesSame as predicate device, offering users the same choice of needed accessories.

Study Information:

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
    The document does not specify a separate "test set" in the context of an AI/algorithm-based device. The performance testing refers to meeting established industry standards (ANSI/RESNA WC vol. I and ISO 7176 Wheelchair Standards) rather than a study on a specific dataset of patient outcomes or expert interpretations. The device itself is a physical product (mechanical wheelchair). Therefore, data provenance is not applicable in the typical sense of medical imaging or diagnostic algorithms.

  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
    Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not a diagnostic or prognostic algorithm that requires expert ground truth establishment for a test set. Acceptance criteria are based on engineering standards and design comparisons.

  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
    Not applicable, as there is no test set requiring expert adjudication for ground truth.

  4. 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. The device is a mechanical wheelchair and does not involve AI assistance or human readers.

  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
    Not applicable, as this is a mechanical device, not an algorithm.

  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
    For a mechanical wheelchair, the "ground truth" for performance is established by adherence to recognized engineering and safety standards (ANSI/RESNA WC vol. I and ISO 7176 Wheelchair Standards) and by direct comparison of physical and functional attributes to a legally marketed predicate device. The information provided about "Upholstery fabric meets the California Technical Bulletin CAL 117 standard for flame retardant" is also a type of regulatory-defined ground truth for a specific material property.

  7. The sample size for the training set:
    Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not an algorithm that requires a training set.

  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
    Not applicable, as there is no training set.

Dear Dr. Ke-Min Jen:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of February 18, 2005 regarding the trade name of the device. The error on the first letter was that we had Ms-800 instead of MS-8000.

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 (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

C.2 COMPARISON SUMMARY

( We place the related information for the predicate device in the following pages.)

From the above comparison table that the intended use and the weight limit 100kgs between the two devices are the same. Mainframes of two devices are foldable. The overall dimensions are similar. Back upholstery material is also the same resistance -ignitability fabric and also meets the California Technical Bulletin CAL 117 standard for flame retardant. The major differences existing are the overall dimension, and the size of tires are differences between the two devices. The overall appearance differences are not safety aspect. So the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in this aspect.

The seat heights between the new device and the predicate device have small difference, not leading to any safety hazard. The hanger and rear axle designs are same. The caster sizes are different. The predicate device's caster size is smaller and it can move more easily than the larger ones can. The weight and size of the new device is larger and the user can feel more comfortable to transport it. At last the optional accessories for the two devices are the same, thus the users have the same adversity to choose the needed accessories to accommodate their needs.

Based on the above the information and the analysis, we know that the new device and the predicate device have the same technological aspects and the same intended use, except for tiny appearance differences. We believe that FDA can decide the subject device and the predicate device are substantially equivalent.
