Intended Use
The Electric wheelchair is a motor driven, indoor transportation vehicle with the intended use to provide mobility to a disabled or elderly person limited to a seated position.
Device Description
The subject Electric wheelchair(C001) is a wheeled personal mobility device that incorporates a seat-support system for a person with a disability or a person without the full capacity to walk designed to be propelled by power from electric motors. The electronic control of speed and direction can be performed by the occupant with the help of controlling joystick. The device can be quickly folded and disassembled, which makes it convenient to be stored or placed at the trunk of vehicles while traveling. The subject device is intended to provide mobility to a disabled or elderly limited to a seated position. It is of indoor and outdoor type, suitable for the use indoor and outdoor road like flat stone road and so on. The subject device consists of two parts, the wheelchair main body and the electrical part. The main body includes a main foldable Carbon fiber frame, two armrests, a backrest, a seat cushion, a safety belt, two rear driving wheels(8" / PU solid tire) and two front wheels(6"/ PU solid tire). The electrical part is composed of two motors, two brakes, a lithium battery, a controller and an off-board charger. The device is powered by a Li-ion battery with 14.8km range, which can be recharged by an off-board battery charger that can be plugged into an AC socket when the device is not in use. The patient can activate the controller handle (joystick) to control the speed and direction of the wheelchair. The further the joystick is pushed from its central position, the faster the wheelchair moves, when it is released, it will automatically reset and brake. The device can convered between electric driving and manual push.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description details a standard electric wheelchair with joystick control and basic electronic components. There is no mention of AI or ML capabilities, image processing, or data sets for training/testing.

No
This device is for mobility and transportation, not for treating a disease or condition, which is the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is an electric wheelchair, designed to provide mobility for disabled or elderly individuals. Its function is to assist with transportation, not to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly outlines numerous hardware components including a frame, wheels, motors, brakes, battery, and a physical controller (joystick). While it mentions "Software validation" in the performance studies, the device is fundamentally a physical electric wheelchair with integrated electrical and control systems, not a software-only device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices 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 described electric wheelchair is a mobility aid. Its function is to provide transportation and support for 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 physical function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical and electrical components related to movement and control. There is no mention of any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the electric wheelchair is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a mobility aid, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Dear Eva Li:

We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device"

(https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30. Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90. Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review. the OS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.

All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rue"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advicecomprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
