Intended Use
The wheelchair (Model: DC01) is a motor driven, indoor and outdoor transportation vehicle with the intended use to provide mobility to a disabled or elderly person limited to a seated position.
Device Description
The device is Electric Wheelchair, model no. is DC01. An electric wheelchair is a four-wheeled personal mobile device with a complementary chair support system that is powered by two motors. The traveling speed is controlled by the motor, and the traveling direction is controlled by the passenger. This product is a device suitabled people with mobility difficulties and elderly people and it is intended to provide mobility to a disabled or elderly person limited to a seated position. The electric wheelchair can be travelled on flat and obstacle ground surface, and direction and speed of the wheelchair can be controlled by the passenger's hand with the help of the joystick. The device can be used to provide indoor and outdoor mobility at a certain distance but not allowed to be travelled on the road or highway. The device consists of two parts: the electrical part and the wheelchair main body. The electrical part includes motor, electromagnetic brake system, battery box, controller and battery charger. The main parts of the wheelchair include front wheels, rear wheels, frame, armrest, seat and back cushion. The device is powered by Li-ion Battery pack (24V 6Ah, 144Wh) with 20 Km (12.5 miles) range, which can be recharged by an off-board battery charger that can be plugged into an AC socket outlet (100-240V, 50/60Hz) when the device is not in use. The patient can activate the controller handle (joystick) to control the speed and direction of the wheelchair movement. In addition, when the patient releases the joystick will return back to the central position and the wheelchair will be automatically stopped soon due to automatic intelligent electromagnetic brake system starts to work. Once the joystick is activated again move to other position, the wheelchair will be re-energized.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description of the device and its functionality, including the "automatic intelligent electromagnetic brake system," does not mention or imply the use of AI or ML. The "intelligent" aspect likely refers to a simple sensor or logic that activates the brake when the joystick is released, not a learning or adaptive system.

No.
The device's intended use is to provide mobility. While it assists disabled or elderly individuals, it does not directly treat or cure a disease or condition, nor does it restore a bodily function in a therapeutic sense. It's a mobility aid, not a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is an electric wheelchair, designed to provide mobility for disabled or elderly individuals. It does not perform any diagnostic functions like detecting, monitoring, or diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like motors, wheels, frame, battery, and a joystick, indicating it is a hardware device with integrated software for control.

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 disabled or elderly individuals. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical and electrical device for transportation. It does not involve analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases or conditions, or providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment decisions based on in vitro analysis.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies listed are related to the physical and electrical performance and safety of a wheelchair (stability, braking, speed, strength, etc.), not diagnostic accuracy or analytical performance.

In summary, the device is a mobility aid, not a diagnostic tool.

Summary of substantial equivalence discussion VI.

The DC01 electric wheelchair complied with the requirements of ISO 7176-1:2014, ISO 7176-2:2017, ISO 7176-3:2012, ISO 7176-4:2008, ISO 7176-5:2008, ISO 7176-6:2018, ISO 7176-7:1998, ISO 7176-8:2014, ISO 7176-9:2009, ISO 7176-10:2008, ISO 7176-11:2008, ISO 7176-13:1989, ISO 7176-14:2008, ISO 7176-15:1996, ISO 7176-16:2012, ISO 7176-21:2009, ISO 7176-22:2014, ISO 7176-25:2013, IEC 60601-1-2: 2014, ISO 10993-1:2018, ISO10993-5:2009, ISO 10993-10:2010.

The intended uses for both devices are totally same. Mainframes of two devices are folded by way of front and rear close, although the locking structure for both devices are different from each other, the folding principle is the same. As for different frame materials used and minor difference on safe operational incline degree for both devices, considering all safety and performance tests are carried out on the subject device with favorable result, such difference will not affect the safety and performance of the subject device. The design principles of the controller and Driving system are the same, and both meet the requirements of the ISO 7176-14:2008. Software validation is carried out on both control systems. Brake system and speed control are designed in the same way as well, and both meet the requirements of the ISO 7176-3:2012. Maximum obstacle climbing and maximum speed are slightly different while such differences will not impact the safety and effectiveness of the subject device or raise new safety and effectiveness concerns as well as both meet the requirements of the ISO 7176-2:2017, ISO 7176-10:2008. The biocompatibility of the subject device is evaluated according to standard ISO 10993-1 and meet the requirements accordingly.

All seat cushion/back cushion and armrest are made of flame retardant material for both devices.

Therefore, the subject device is assured to be under the same safety level.

In conclusion, the technological characteristics, features, specifications, materials, mode of operation, and intended use of the device substantially equivalent to the predicate devices quoted above. The differences between the subject device and predicate devices do not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness. The differences between the subject device and predicate device do not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness.

VIII. Biocompatibility of patient-contacting material

Biocompatibility of patient-contacting material are evaluated in accordance with ISO 10993-1: 2018. All parts of the wheelchair surface in contact with user skin are patient contact parts for the electric wheelchair. The biocompatibility tests are carried out on patient-contact materials, including cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5:2009), sensitization (ISO 10993-10:2010) and irritation (ISO 10993-10:2010). The test results show all materials used are bio-safe. Below is the summary table:
