No
The summary describes a standard mechanical wheelchair with no mention of AI or ML features.

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

No
Explanation: The device is a mechanical wheelchair, which is used for mobility and not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "mechanical wheelchair" with physical components like wheels and a seat, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states the device is a "mechanical wheelchair" used for "providing mobility to persons limited to a sitting position." This is a physical mobility aid, not a device that performs tests on biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for mobility, not for diagnosing or monitoring a medical condition through testing of samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document lacks any mention of:
    • Analyzing biological samples
    • Detecting biomarkers or analytes
    • Performing laboratory tests
    • Any components typically found in IVD devices (reagents, analyzers, test strips, etc.)

Therefore, based on the provided information, the AIR, Inc. Model "Flight" mechanical wheelchair is a mobility device and does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

LEGALLY MARKETED DEVICE FOR SUBSTANTIAL F. EQUIVALENCE COMPARISON

1.Manufacturer:Otto Bock, LP
2. Model:Start Basic
3. Cleared under:K052681
4. Date Cleared:October 6, 2005
5. Class:Class I
6. Regulation Number890.3850
7. Product Code(s):IOR

SUMMARY OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE G. COMPARISON

The new device and the predicate device have the same intended use. Both devices have the same weight bearing capacity and both devices are foldable for transportation or stowage. The overall dimensions are similar. The differences between the new device and the predicate are chiefly in the frame materials and in overall dimensions. These differences are not safety related, so the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Dear Ms. Ankova:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device w on re is 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 for associated in the 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.
