The device description details a purely mechanical manual wheelchair with a manual tilt feature. There is no mention of any computational or data-driven components that would suggest the use of AI or ML.
No
The device is a manual wheelchair providing mobility, which is assistive rather than therapeutic. Its features like "Tilt in Space" are for comfort and support, not for treating a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a manual wheelchair intended for mobility, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its description focuses on features related to patient transport and comfort, not diagnostic functions.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, mechanical wheelchair with a frame, wheels, casters, and a manual tilt mechanism. There is no mention of any software component.
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 mobility to persons limited to a sitting position. This is a mechanical function related to physical support and transportation, not the diagnosis of diseases or conditions through the examination of specimens from the human body.
- Device Description: The description details a manual wheelchair with features like wheels, frame, seating, and a tilt mechanism. These are all mechanical components for mobility and positioning.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of:
- Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in the body
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
The device is clearly a medical device, specifically a manual wheelchair, but it falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Device Description
The DALTON INSTRUMENT CORPORATION Model TACAMO is a manually operated, self propelled, manual, mechanical wheelchair. The primary design function and use is to provide mobility to persons who may be restricted to a sitting position. This product may also be used as an attendant propelled patient transport device in a health care environment such as a hospital, nursing home or long term care facilities.
The product has standard manual wheelchair features. It consists of the frame, 24" rear wheels with hand rims for propelling the chair, and 8'' front casters for steering and turning.
The wheelchair frame is constructed from both 1.25" and 1" outside diameter(OD) round, mechanical, steel tubing. The side frames are of welded construction and are secured to the remaining frame members using screws and bolts. This device is a rigid, "non folding" type wheel chair that incorporates a solid seating surface. TACAMO also comes with wheelchair cushion and seating system.
TACAMO also includes a "Tilt in Space" feature which allows the seat and back of the wheelchair to be tilted. This feature is used for those patients who require a tilt feature for stability, comfort or head control. It also serves as an attendant aid in those situations where a patient need to be tilted to be fed, or attended to in some situations.
The "Tilt in Space" feature is manually operated and is activated by two release levers located at the rear of the wheelchair. Adjusting the tilt is achieved by squeezing the two release lever handles inward simultaneously. When the levers are squeezed, flexible cables attached to each release lever disengage gear rack segments from independent actuator rods which are notched to match the teeth of the gear segments. Once the desired tilt angle has been obtained, the handles are released and the chair will remain at the angle chosen. The chair has a tilt angle range of 30 degrees and 30 degrees of reclining angle.

for which FDA has granted marketing clearance through the 510(k) premarket notification process. More specifically the DALTON INSTRUMENT CORPORATION Model TACAMO is substantially equivalent to the Sunrise Medical/Quickie Design Model "Quickie TSR" Manual Wheelchair(K952641 6/9/95) and the Invacare Model AT II Manual Wheelchair(K984447 1/8/1999)
Each of the products is a manual operated, attendant or user propelled, manual mechanical wheelchair with the same intended function and use which is to provide mobility to persons that may be limited to a seated position. All products consist basically of a mechanical frame to support the wheelchair, 24" rear wheels for propelling the wheelchair, and 8" casters for turning and steering. Additionally, each of these wheelchairs incorporates a manually operated "tilt in space" feature for patient comfort and positioning.
