No
The summary contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The description focuses solely on the device's function as a wheelchair for mobility.

No
The Kudu is described as a wheelchair for mobility, and a therapeutic device is generally defined as one used in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease. Mobility assistance provided by a wheelchair does not inherently qualify it as a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as a wheelchair intended to provide mobility, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The intended use describes a wheelchair, which is a physical device, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use of the Kudu is to provide mobility to children in a sitting position. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. The Kudu does not perform any such tests.
  • Device Description: While the description is "Not Found," the intended use clearly indicates a physical mobility aid, not a diagnostic device.

The Kudu is a medical device, but it falls under a different category than IVDs. It's a mobility aid.

Dear Ulla Lange:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR

Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
