No
The description focuses on mechanical and electronic components (controller, brakes, motor) and standard performance testing, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is a power wheelchair designed for mobility and sports activities, not for treating or alleviating a disease or condition. While it assists individuals with certain conditions, its primary function is assistive mobility, not therapy.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a powered standup wheelchair intended for mobility and sports activities, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "front wheel drive powered standup wheelchair" with physical components like a "U" frame, controller, brakes, and motor, indicating it is a hardware device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a powered standup wheelchair designed to assist individuals with mobility limitations. Its purpose is to enable movement and participation in activities, not to analyze biological samples for diagnostic purposes.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or processes related to sample collection, analysis of biological materials, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the ParaGolfer Standup Wheelchair is a mobility aid, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

At the same time the angles on the backrest and footrest adapt in such a way that the user is brought to an upright posture.

F. Technological Characteristics Summary

The ParaGolfer Wheelchair is substantially equivalent to the LEVO AG comfort II Wheelchair, cleared on June 10, 2005 as K051387.

Each wheelchair is a standup, powered wheelchair for the active user, with a rigid frame and similar characteristics.

Dear Mr. Kramer:

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.
