Intended Use
The Stellar LEAP Manual Tilt Wheelchair is intended to provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position.
Device Description
The Stellar LEAP manual tilt wheelchair is an indoor / outdoor, manually operated, Tilt-in-Space wheelchair. Its intended function and use is to provide mobility to persons ages 16 and up (adolescents and adults). The Stellar LEAP manual tilt wheelchair consists of metal frame architecture with a backrest, seat, and rear wheels, which allow for occupant or attendant propelling of the device. Smaller caster wheels are also mounted on the front of the frame to facilitate steering and turning. The Stellar LEAP consists of three (3) metal frame subassemblies: a lower frame, upper seat frame, and sub-frame assembly. The manual Tilt-in-Space operation is achieved using a gas strut mechanism connected between the upper seat frame and sub-frame.

More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is intended to provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position, and it has undergone biocompatibility assessment as per ISO standards and FDA guidance for medical devices, indicating a therapeutic intent.

No

This device is a manual tilt wheelchair designed to provide mobility for individuals restricted to a seated position. Its function is to facilitate movement and positioning, not to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, manually operated wheelchair with a metal frame, wheels, backrest, seat, and a gas strut mechanism. It is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, the Stellar LEAP Manual Tilt 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 physical function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical device for mobility, not equipment used for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any components, processes, or intended uses related to:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions based on sample analysis.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical and mechanical aspects of the wheelchair (stability, braking, dimensions, strength, biocompatibility), not on the accuracy or reliability of diagnostic results.

In summary, the Stellar LEAP Manual Tilt Wheelchair is a medical device designed for mobility support, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

1.1 Device Description

The Stellar LEAP manual tilt wheelchair is an indoor / outdoor, manually operated, Tilt-in-Space wheelchair. Its intended function and use is to provide mobility to persons ages 16 and up (adolescents and adults). The Stellar LEAP manual tilt wheelchair consists of metal frame architecture with a backrest, seat, and rear wheels, which allow for occupant or attendant propelling of the device. Smaller caster wheels are also mounted on the front of the frame to facilitate steering and turning. The Stellar LEAP consists of three (3) metal frame subassemblies: a lower frame, upper seat frame, and sub-frame assembly. The manual Tilt-in-Space operation is achieved using a gas strut mechanism connected between the upper seat frame and sub-frame. The Stellar LEAP Manual Tilt Wheelchair is available in a standard configuration, which allows 20° Tilt-in-Space (posterior) tilt, with a maximum weight capacity of 250 lbs.

PDG offers optional features / options to be added to the Stellar LEAP wheelchair, including the two below features:

  • Stellar LEAP Anterior Tilt Feature (0° 30°): Functional reach extension & transfer . assist
  • Stellar LEAP Dynamic Recline Backrest Tilt Feature: 30° range of dynamic recline for the backrest combined with the anterior tilt

Other available options / accessories to complete the Stellar LEAP configuration include: seat width / depth / height, armrests, casters, frog leg suspension forks, rear wheel / tire, hand rim, wheel locks, anti-tippers, back post style, back options, back upholstery, headrest, tilt control, recline control, front rigging, foot plates, footrest / leg rest accessories, position straps, IV pole, 02 holder.

1.2 Intended Use / Indications

The Stellar LEAP wheelchair is intended to provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position.

The Indications for Use statement for the Stellar LEAP is identical to the predicate device, the Stellar Tilt. Both the subject and predicate devices have the same intended use for providing mobility to persons restricted to a seated position.

1.3 Substantial Equivalence Comparison

The Stellar LEAP and predicate Stellar Tilt wheelchairs have the same basic design, principle of use and intended use / indications. The subject and predicate devices share similar dimensions, weight, and both offer posterior Tilt-in-Space capability. The overall dimensions, seat width, seat depth, and adjustable seat to floor height for both the subject and predicate wheelchairs are very similar. The subject, predicate and reference device differ in their frame design, materials of construction, and tilt features, however the overall function of the wheelchairs are similar. The predicate device does not include the anterior tilt feature, thus the reference device K140023 has been included in the comparison below.

1.4 Performance Data

The Stellar LEAP has been evaluated through ISO 14971-compliant risk analysis and nonclinical testing performed in accordance with the below wheelchair standards:

  • . ISO 7176 – Part 1 – Determination of static stability
  • ISO 7176 – Part 3 – Determination of effectiveness of brakes
  • ISO 7176 Part 5 Determination of overall dimensions, mass and turning space •
  • ISO 7176 Part 7 Measurement of seating and wheel dimensions. .

  • ISO 7176 Part 8 Requirements and test methods for static impact and fatigue ● strengths
  • ISO 7176 - Part 11 - Test dummies
  • ISO 7176 - Part 13 - Determination of coefficient of friction of test surfaces.
  • . ISO 7176 - Part 15 - Requirements for information disclosure, documentation and, labeling.
  • ISO 7176 - Part 16 - Resistance to ignition of postural support devices
  • . ISO 7176 - Part 19 - Wheeled mobility devices for use as seat in motor vehicles

Results of the above ISO evaluations demonstrated that the Stellar LEAP meets the requirements of ISO 7176- 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 11, 13, 15, 16, and 19.

Furthermore, a biocompatibility assessment was carried out for the Stellar LEAP by identifying the patient contacting materials and conducting a biomaterial evaluation in accordance with:

  • ISO 10993-1 Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 1: Evaluation and ● testing within a risk management process (2010)
  • FDA Guidance: Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" (June 16, 2016)

1.5 Conclusions

The Stellar LEAP has substantially equivalent indications and principle of operation to the currently marketed Stellar Tilt. While there are design differences in the frame configuration. materials of construction, joining methods and tilt features, the Stellar LEAP has been evaluated through ISO 14971 - Application of risk management to medical devices and design verification and validation (DV&V) testing was carried out and showed the Stellar LEAP performed compliant to ISO 7176-1, 3. 5. 7. 8. 11. 13. 15. 16 and 19. The subject device has the same intended use, principles of operation, and technological characteristics to the predicate device. Furthermore, similar to the reference device, Elevation, the Stellar LEAP utilizes gas struts to provide anterior tilting function capability. Additionally, the biocompatibility assessment of the Stellar LEAP was carried out in consideration of the safe history of use of these patient contacting materials with other marketed PDG wheelchairs. Thus the Stellar LEAP raises no new questions of safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate device and is, therefore, substantially equivalent.
