The description focuses on standard power wheelchair components and functionality controlled by a joystick and electromagnetic brakes. There is no mention of AI/ML terms or capabilities like autonomous navigation, predictive control, or data-driven decision-making.
No
The primary function of this device is to provide mobility assistance, not to treat, diagnose, cure, or prevent a disease or condition. While it helps disabled or elderly individuals, it doesn't offer therapeutic intervention.
No
The device description indicates its purpose is to provide mobility and transportation, not to diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly lists numerous hardware components including wheels, frame, controller, motor, battery box, and charger. It is a physical mobility device, not a software-only application.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Power Wheelchair (N5515B) is a mobility aid. Its function is to transport individuals with mobility limitations. It does not interact with or analyze biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as providing mobility to a disabled or elderly person. This is a mechanical function, not a diagnostic one.
The description of the device, its components, and how it operates all point to a transportation and mobility device, not a diagnostic tool.

Device Description
This Power wheelchair is a motor driven, indoor and outdoor transportation vehicle, which a device for assisting action handicapped people and disabled people to move. It is suitable for disabled people with mobility difficulties and elderly people.
The device consists of front wheel, drive wheel, frame, controller, motor, armrest, backrest, seat cushion, pedal, battery box and charger.
The device is powered by Li-ion Battery pack (24V 12Ah) with 15 Km (9.32 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, the joystick will return back to the central position and the wheelchair will be automatically stopped soon due to automatic electromagnetic brake system. Once the joystick is activated again move to other position, the wheelchair will be re-energized.

The intended uses for both devices are the same. Mainframes of two devices are folded by way of front and rear close, and frame materials all meet the Tensile Strength, Yield Load, and Elongation tests. 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 safe operational incline are slightly different while such differences will not impact the safety and
9
effectiveness of the subject device or raise new safety and effectiveness concerns as well as both meet the requirements of the ISO 7176-2:2001, ISO 7176-10:2008. The biocompatibility of the Predicate device and Subject device meet the requirements of the ISO 10993-5:2009 & ISO 10993-10:2010.
The flame retardant test of the seat cushion/backrest of both subject device and predicate device is carried out according to the ISO 7176-16 test. Therefore, both devices are 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 devices do not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness.
