Intended Use
The Intended Use of the Pride Mobility C5 Lift Chair is to provide lift assistance for persons who have difficulty rising from a seated position to a standing position.
Device Description
The Pride Mobility C5 Lift Chair is an upholstered chair assembly constructed of a welded steel frame, and foam and fabric compliant to Cal 117 Flammability requirements. The chair is assembled to a welded steel lifting frame mechanism having a 24 VDC motor / actuator powered by standard 110 volt AC power from a wall outlet. A Hand Held Switch Control Device engages the actuators to position the chair to a recline, sitting, or standing position.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and electrical components, safety standards, and basic user control (hand-held switch). There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven decision-making.

No
The device is a lift chair designed to assist individuals in moving from a seated to a standing position, which addresses a functional need but does not treat a disease or condition. While it has undergone safety testing for medical electrical equipment, its primary function is assistive mobility rather than therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that the Pride Mobility C5 Lift Chair is designed to provide lift assistance for individuals, not to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical chair assembly with a steel frame, motor, actuator, and hand-held switch control, indicating it is a hardware device with electrical components, 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 lift assistance for persons with difficulty rising from a seated position. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical chair with a motor and lifting mechanism. There is no mention of reagents, samples (like blood, urine, or tissue), or any process for analyzing biological materials.
  • Lack of IVD-related information: The document does not mention any of the typical elements associated with IVDs, such as sample types, analytical methods, or diagnostic results.

Therefore, the Pride Mobility C5 Lift Chair is a medical device, but it falls under a different category than In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The Pride Mobility C5 Lift Chair was tested to the following Safety Standards: CAL 117 Sections A, D, & E - Flammability Testing for Upholstered Furniture EN 61000-6-3, and EN 61000-6-1 - Electromagnetic Emissions & Immunity Tests EN60601-1 / A2: 1995 / EN60601-1 / A2: 1995 - Medical Electrical Equipment -General Requirements for Safety.
The Pride Mobility C5 Lift Chair has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as the TMR-48 (K953342), moreover, the non-clinical testing and the predicate comparisons demonstrate that any differences in their technological characteristics do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, the C5 Lift Chair is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, has passed all the necessary testing procedures, and is considered to be safe for user operation.

§ 890.3110 Electric positioning chair.

(a)
Identification. An electric positioning chair is a device with a motorized positioning control that is intended for medical purposes and that can be adjusted to various positions. The device is used to provide stability for patients with athetosis (involuntary spasms) and to alter postural positions.(b)
Classification. Class II. The electric positioning chair is exempt from premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to § 890.9 and the following conditions for exemption:(1) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate that the safety controls are adequate to ensure safe use of the device and prevent user falls from the device in the event of a device failure;
(2) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate the ability of the device to withstand the rated user weight load with an appropriate factor of safety;
(3) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate the longevity of the device to withstand external forces applied to the device and provide the user with an expected service life of the device;
(4) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate proper environments of use and storage of the device to maximize the longevity of the device;
(5) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions of ANSI/AAMI/ES60601-1, “Medical Electrical Equipment—Part 1: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance,” and ANSI/AAMI/IEC 60601-1-2, “Medical Electrical Equipment—Part 1-2: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance—Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Disturbances—Requirements and Tests”) must validate electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety;
(6) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions of ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-1, “Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices—Part 1: Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process,” ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-5, “Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices—Part 5: Tests for In Vitro Cytotoxicity,” and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-10, “Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices—Part 10: Tests for Irritation and Skin Sensitization”) must validate that the skin-contacting components of the device are biocompatible;
(7) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions of IEC 62304, “Medical Device Software—Software Life Cycle Processes”) must validate the software life cycle and that all processes, activities, and tasks are implemented and documented;
(8) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must validate that the device components are found to be non-flammable;
(9) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must validate that the battery in the device (if applicable) performs as intended over the anticipated service life of the device; and
(10) Adequate patient labeling is provided to the user to document proper use and maintenance of the device to ensure safe use of the device by the patient in the intended use environment.
