Study Description:
The study referenced is a performance testing comparison to established wheelchair standards and a substantial equivalence comparison to a legally marketed predicate device.
2. Sample Size and Data Provenance
- Test Set Sample Size: The document does not specify a numerical sample size for the devices tested against the standards or for the comparison. It states "The WH Convertible Lightweight Wheelchair WHL100" which implies at least one unit was tested to meet the standards, and also refers to "the two devices" in the comparison.
- Data Provenance: The device manufacturer (WELL HOME HEALTH PRODUCTS CO.) is located in Taichung County, Taiwan, ROC. The testing would presumably have been conducted there or by a certified laboratory on behalf of the manufacturer. The data is prospective in the sense that performance testing was conducted for this specific device to demonstrate compliance. The comparison to a predicate device is retrospective in nature, focusing on existing attributes of the predicate.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications
- The document does not specify the number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications. The performance testing against ANSI/RESNA WC vol. 1 and ISO 7176 standards would typically be performed by accredited testing laboratories with engineers and technicians experienced in wheelchair testing. The substantial equivalence comparison is a regulatory assessment.
4. Adjudication Method
- The document does not describe an adjudication method in the context of expert review for a test set. This type of submission (510(k)) relies on performance testing against established standards and a direct comparison to a predicate device's characteristics, rather than subjective expert consensus on a test set.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
- No MRMC study was done. This device is a mechanical wheelchair, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or operative device, so an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is not applicable.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance
- No standalone algorithm performance was done. This device is a hardware product (mechanical wheelchair), not a software algorithm.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- Established Industry Standards and Predicate Device Characteristics: The ground truth for performance testing is defined by recognized international and national standards (ANSI/RESNA WC vol. 1 and ISO 7176). For the substantial equivalence comparison, the ground truth is the established characteristics and performance of the legally marketed predicate device (PRO WALKER ML-300 Foldable Wheelchair, K041337).
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not a machine learning model, so there is no "training set" in the context of AI/ML.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
- Not applicable. As above, there is no training set for this type of device.
