No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical aspects and safety standards of a manual wheelchair, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes
The device is a rehab wheelchair intended to provide mobility to persons limited to a sitting position, which qualifies it as a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as a "Rehab Wheelchair" and its intended use is to "provide mobility to persons limited to a sitting position," which are functions of a mobility aid, not a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like wheels, armrests, and a shear reduction system, indicating it is a hardware device.

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 for physical support and movement.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical components of a wheelchair (wheels, armrests, frame, upholstery).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are specifically designed for testing biological samples outside of the body. This device is a mobility aid.

The comparison of the technical details between MA012 and MS019 and its predicate device are summarized in the following:

  • a. Dimension: The dimensions of our device and the predicate are similar. And our device conforms to the specific ISO test and that the results are disclosed to the user appropriately, as documented in the ISO standards for disclosure. So there is no deleterious affection of safety and effectiveness about the differences from the dimensions with the predicate device.
  • b. Weight: Although the total weight bearing capacity of MA012 and MS019 is heavier than Invacare Tracer SX5 Manual Wheelchair (Heavy Duty 350lbs) mechanical wheelchair (K162621). The device conforms to the specific ISO test and that the results are disclosed to the user appropriately, as documented in the ISO standards for disclosure (Requirements and test methods for static, impact and fatique strengths) test. So there is no deleterious affection of safety and effectiveness about the difference on weight bearing capacity with predicate device.
  • ﻥ Both of our devices and the predicate are equipped with PU foam Seat/Backrest Pad, adjustable Headrest and Armrest. Our MA012 AND MS019 is supplied with a standard Elevating Legrest/Footrest, while the predicate device is provided it as an option. The Elevating Legrest/Footrest can provide better strain-relief for legs.
  • d. Multiple Rear Axle Position: Both our MA012 AND MS019 and the predicate device are provided with Multiple Rear Axle Positions to allow users to change its seat height to a best fitting position.
  • Frame Construction and material: Our MS019 and MA012 devices and the e. predicated device are the same foldable frames.
  • Safety Feature: Both of our devices and the predicated device are equipped f. with Manual Wheel Locks to prevent unexpected movement while parking.

The minor differences between MA012 and MS019 and its predicate device raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that the MA012 and MS019 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Conclusions

According to comparison table, the differences on weight capacity, adjustable back angle and dimensions do not deleteriously affect the safety and effectiveness of the device.

The non-clinical testing and the predicate comparisons demonstrate that any differences in their technological characteristics do no raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.

So based on the design, performance specifications and testing and intended use, The AST Model MA012 and MS019 Rehab Wheelchair, is substantially equivalent to the Invacare Tracer SX5 Manual Wheelchair (Heavy Duty 450lbs) mechanical wheelchair (K162621).
