More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on mechanical and electrical components and control via hand controls, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
Explanation: The device is intended to provide mobility, which is assistive rather than therapeutic. While it may help manage the effects of a condition, it does not directly treat or cure it.

No
Explanation: The device is a power chair intended for mobility, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, hardware-based electric scooter with wheels, a seat, armrests, and hand controls, indicating it is not a software-only medical device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as providing mobility to persons restricted to a seated position. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a power chair/scooter, which is a mobility aid. It does not mention any components or functions related to testing biological samples or diagnosing conditions.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device does not fit that description.

Image /page/1/Picture/2 description: The image shows a logo for "TUV", which is a German organization that provides inspection and product certification services. The logo is in black and white and features the letters "TUV" in a stylized font. The letters are stacked on top of each other, with the "T" on top, the "U" in the middle, and the "V" on the bottom. The logo is surrounded by a faint dotted pattern.

Summary for substantial equivalence comparison:

The intended use between the two devices is the same. Mainframes of two devices are folded, materials of the two devices all meet the strength and fatigue tests and they use the same material aspects. The same maximum speed 9.6 km/hr, suspension of cross brace, footplates, armrest type, and the warranty are all the same. The back upholstery material is also the same fabric and passed the resistance ignition test. Especially the electronic systems between two devices are the same suppliers, and all passed by the UL certificated, for instance the electronic controller, batteries, and the competent switches and switching power supplies. Thus the same safety level for the two devices is assured.

The major differences existing are the overall dimensions, cruising range, and the incline degrees are differences between the two devices. Besides, the special designed for the predicate device with power tilt seating system and the new device is designed for more lightweight. The overall appearance differences are not safety aspect. So the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in this aspect.
