No
The device description and performance studies focus on standard mobility scooter functionalities and safety standards, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is described as "intended for medical purposes to provide mobility to persons restricted to a sitting position," which clearly indicates a therapeutic function by addressing a medical need.
No
The device is described as a mobility scooter designed to provide mobility, not to perform diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, battery-operated mobility scooter with wheels, a frame, a seat, and controls. The performance studies listed are for physical and electrical safety and performance of a hardware device, not software.
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 sitting position. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a power scooter with features related to mobility, control, and comfort. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies listed are related to the physical and electrical safety and performance of a mobility device (wheelchairs and scooters), not diagnostic accuracy or analytical performance.
- Biocompatibility Information: The biocompatibility information relates to materials that come into contact with the patient's skin, which is relevant for a physical device, not an IVD.
- Key Metrics: The "Not Applicable" for key metrics like Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, and NPV further indicates that this is not a diagnostic device. These metrics are crucial for evaluating the performance of IVDs.
In summary, the device's purpose, design, and testing are all focused on providing mobility, which is outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Device Description
Cutie Mini S16 is battery operated and configured with two rear pneumatic ● wheels as the drive wheels and two front pneumatic wheels as the steering wheels. The device uses the upper panel control to control the turning tiller column mechanism to control the front wheel as the steering directions. Upper panel control is able to control driving forward, driving backward, speed control and lighting function. The main frame is equipped with a rear bumper to allow the device to sustain an impact without damage to the power scooter safety system and with an independent suspension. Tuning tiller column is equipped with the head light, back mirrors, and a swivel seat with the flipping arm-rests, and a lever to move the seat backward and forward. Cutie Mini S16 maximum weight capacity is 300 lbs (135 kg), and the maximum speed is 3.6 mile/hr ( 6 km/hr). Owing to the feature of the body structure, the two rear wheels can always contact the surface, and the device can drive on the rough surface.

COMPARISON DISCUSSION
The intended uses for two devices are the same. PG S-Drive electric controller, suspension of cross brace, footplates, armrest type, the warranty of the components are the same. The back upholstery material is also the same and passed the resistance ignition test in accordance with ISO 7176-16.
The electronic systems between two devices, for example, the same type of S-Drive with different volume electronic controller, batteries, recharger, and the competent components are from the same suppliers, which were all passed UL certifications. Thus, the same electric safety level for the two devices is assured.
There are safer incline capabilities 6° and one more biocompatibility testing ISO 10993-10:2010 for the subject device than the predicate device. This can ensure more safety and biocompatibility for the users.
Mainframes of two devices are fixed type, and frame materials of the two devices are different but they both passed the strength and fatigue tests. The safety and effectiveness are ensured. The weight limit of HEARTWAY Lightweight Power Mobility Scooter, S34 is 100 kgs / 220 lbs and the subject device HEARTWAY Power Mobility Scooter Cutie Mini S16 is 135 kgs / 300 lbs. In order to load a heavier user, the subject device must be equipped with larger seat height and larger castors and rear wheels. In order to have a longer cruise range, the

Image /page/10/Picture/9 description: The image contains two logos on a white background. The first logo is the "TUV CERT" logo, which is a blue logo with the letters "TUV" on top of the word "CERT". The second logo is a rounded rectangle with the text "ISO-9001 CERTIFICATED" inside. The text is in a simple, sans-serif font.
motor power and the battery capability must be larger seat height can thus load a larger battery volume. The larger castors and rear wheels lead to larger turning radius, ground clearance, kerb climbing ability. Finally, larger seat height, larger castors and rear wheels, bigger battery add to a heavier weight of the power scooter. The pneumatic tires for the subject device can absorb more impact while driving than the solid tires for the predicate device, thus leading to more comfort. Under normal driving and maintenance conditions, pneumatic tires have the same safety and effectiveness concerns as the solid tires.
In a word, the subject device has a higher seat due to the above considerations and thus possessing a higher center of weight, which leads to less stable capabilities and more tip over hazard when moving fast. So, the maximum speed of the subject device is reduced to a safety level. It is 6.0 km/h (3.6 mile/h) for subject device and 7.8 km/h (4.875 mile/h) for predicate device. This limitation can bring more safety level and reduce tip over hazard. Thus, the main difference between two devices is the seat height dimension only. This main difference is equalized by limiting the maximum speed.
At last, two devices pass the performance tests in accordance with ISO 7176 series standards and the ANSI / RESNA WC-2, Section 21 for the EMC test. The overall performances of the two devices are substantially equivalent.
CONCLUSIONS
The subject device, HEARTWAY Power Mobility Scooter, Cutie Mini S16, is as safe and effective as, and functions in a manner equivalent to the predicate device, HEARTWAY Lightweight Power Mobility Scooter S34. The conclusions drawn from the non-clinical tests demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed device identified in the submission. Thus, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
