Intended Use
The Marvél Wheelchair is a mechanical wheelchair intended to provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position.
Device Description
The Marvél Wheelchair is a manually operated, user propelled mechanical wheelchair. It is intended to provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position. It can be operated on most indoor and outdoor surfaces, with the exception of stairs. The frame is constructed primarily of aluminium but with titanium elements in specific areas to reduce vibration and weight. Large rear wheels with handrims propel the chair and smaller front pivoting casters provide stability. The wheelchair is a lightweight manual chair designed for everyday use, both indoors and outdoors. The wheelchair is a rigid, non-folding type wheelchair. The Marvel wheelchair consists of three major components or sections in addition to the large rear whecls: the caster wing assembly, the main frame assembly and the seating assembly. The Marvel Wheelchair offers modularity and a number of adjustability features. The seat height, width, angle, rear seat-to-floor height, and front seat-to-floor height may be adiusted easily for the comfort of the user. Modularity allows replacement of worn components and allows the user to continually customize their own chair to ensure optimal functionality for their lifestyle.

No
The description details a purely mechanical wheelchair with no mention of software, sensors, or computational elements that would suggest AI/ML.

No
The device, a mechanical wheelchair, provides mobility but does not treat or diagnose a disease or condition, which is the characteristic of a therapeutic device.

No
The device is a mechanical wheelchair designed for mobility, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "mechanical wheelchair" with a frame, wheels, and other physical components, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position." This is a mechanical function for physical support and movement, not for diagnosing diseases or conditions based on in vitro examination of specimens.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical wheelchair with components like a frame, wheels, and seating. It focuses on physical characteristics and adjustability for user comfort and mobility. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or performing tests outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD device, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in specimens
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions
    • Reagents, calibrators, or controls

The Marvél Wheelchair is clearly a medical device intended for mobility assistance, but it falls under a different regulatory category than IVD devices.
