AI/ML Overview

This document describes acceptance criteria and testing for the Invacare® TDX® SP2 Power Wheelchair.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document highlights conformity to various ISO, IEC, ANSI, CAL, and EN standards for different aspects of the wheelchair's hardware, software, and materials. Due to the nature of the device (a configurable power wheelchair) and the submission type (510(k) for substantial equivalence), the acceptance criteria are primarily described as meeting the requirements and passing the tests of these recognized standards. The reported device performance is generally stated as meeting these requirements and demonstrating substantial equivalence.

Here's a summary derived from the document, focusing on categories rather than specific numerical values where not explicitly provided for the subject device in comparison tables:

Test CategoryAcceptance Criteria (based on standards)Reported Device Performance
Hardware Performance (Physical Characteristics)Conformity to relevant ISO 7176 standards (e.g., static/dynamic stability, braking, energy consumption, dimensions, speed, impact/fatigue strengths, climatic tests, obstacle climbing, power/control systems)Met all acceptance criteria for each section of ISO 7176
Material PerformanceConformity to flammability standards (CAL117, EN 1021-1, EN 1021-2)Met relevant flammability standards
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)Conformity to ISO 7176-21, ANSI/RESNA WC-2:2009 Section 21 EMC requirementsMet relevant EMC requirements
Wireless CoexistenceConformity to ANSIC63.27 Wireless Coexistence standardMet relevant wireless coexistence standard requirements

Information Disclosure/LabelingConformity to ISO 7176-15 requirementsMet requirements for information disclosure/labeling
Risk ManagementConducted in accordance with ISO 14971:2012Risk management conducted per ISO 14971:2012

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

The document states: "Because the subject Invacare® TDX® SP2 Power Wheelchair is highly configurable Power Wheelchair (PWC), intended to serve a diverse population with unique individual needs, a wide variety of options and accessories have been designed. However, due to the highly customizable nature of the subject device, testing to every possible combination would not be practical. However, every design feature of the subject device was verified. This was accomplished by identifying the specific wheelchair configurations that represent the full range of product permutations."

  • Sample Size: The exact numerical sample size for "test sets" (e.g., number of individual wheelchairs or components tested) is not explicitly provided. Instead, it indicates that "specific wheelchair configurations that represent the full range of product permutations" were identified and tested for each design feature. This implies a comprehensive, representative testing approach rather than a fixed "sample size" in the sense of clinical trials.
  • Data Provenance: The testing was "Non-clinical Test" and "Software Verification Testing" performed on the "subject Invacare® TDX® SP2 Power Wheelchair." This indicates that the data was generated through laboratory testing by the manufacturer (Invacare Corporation) as part of their design verification process. There is no mention of country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective in the clinical sense, as it was non-clinical laboratory testing.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:

This information is not applicable to this submission. The device is a physical product (power wheelchair) and the testing performed is non-clinical laboratory testing against established engineering and safety standards (ISO, IEC, etc.). The "ground truth" is defined by the technical specifications and performance limits set by these international standards, not by expert consensus on clinical diagnoses or interpretations.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

This information is not applicable. As the testing is non-clinical laboratory testing against defined standards, there is no ambiguity or subjective interpretation requiring adjudication by multiple parties or a specific method like 2+1 or 3+1. The tests yield objective results (e.g., pass/fail for a specified load, speed, or range).

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is typically performed for diagnostic devices where human interpretation (e.g., radiologists reading images) is involved, and the AI's assistance to human readers is being evaluated. This submission is for a physical medical device (power wheelchair) and involves non-clinical performance and safety testing.

6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done:

While not an "algorithm only" in the sense of an AI diagnostic tool, the non-clinical tests performed on the physical wheelchair and its software are effectively "standalone" tests in that they evaluate the device's performance against defined criteria without active human intervention in the loop of the specific test itself (beyond setting up and observing the test). For example, stability tests, braking tests, and energy consumption tests are direct measurements of the device's inherent capabilities. The "Software Verification Testing" also falls into this category, assessing the software's functionality independently.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

The ground truth used for these tests is objective performance specifications and safety requirements defined by internationally recognized standards (e.g., ISO 7176 series for wheelchairs, IEC 62304 for software, ISO 10993 for biocompatibility, flammability standards). The device's performance characteristics are measured and compared against the limits and criteria set forth in these standards.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

This information is not applicable. This is a 510(k) submission for a physical medical device based on engineering and safety testing, not a machine learning or AI-driven diagnostic device that would typically involve a "training set" of data.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

This information is not applicable for the same reason as point 8.

stability to be tilted and allow gravity to hold them in position. The subject device positioning also help the patients to reach higher elevations in a seated position, increasing their range of motion and accessibility.

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PRIMARY and SECONDARY PREDICATE DEVICES and REFERENCE DEVICES

The device comparison showed that the subject device is substantially equivalent in intended use, design, materials, and operational principles to the previously cleared primary and secondary predicate devices and/or specified reference devices below in regards to provide mobility and positioning to persons limited to a sitting position.

  • Invacare® TDX® SP2 Power Wheelchair (K141783) .
  • F3 Powered Wheelchair (K143180)
  • F5 Powered Wheelchair (K143014) ●
  • Quantum Q6 Edge (K143383)
  • Modular Power Positioning System (K150574)

The subject device, predicate device and all reference devices excluding the secondary predicate device Motion Concepts Modular Power Positioning System are battery powered, motor driven, rigid, non-folding type power wheelchairs with a micro-processor controlled electronic control systems, non-powered and powered seating and a selection of alternative drive controls.

The subject device has the same seating system as previously cleared secondary predicate Module Power Positioning System device.

The secondary predicate device and the reference devices were chosen to demonstrate substantial equivalence for the following components and features in the subject device:

  • . LiNX® Control System
