Device Description
This product consists of frame, wheels, seat, armrest, lithium battery, motor and controller with a lightweight and compact design.The wheelchair can easily fold and unfold for transportation or storage.The armrest can be flipped backward, which is convenient for the elderly to move. Users can drive the wheelchair by themselves through the control device.
The QDWP-A01 uses lithium batteries as its power source, The QDWP-B02 uses lead acid batteries as its power source.The controller controls the drive left/right motor to realize the wheelchair forward, backward and turn functions.
The frame of QDWP-A01 is aluminum,the frame of QDWP-B02 is steel. The front wheels are driven wheels suitable for rotation, acceleration, retrograde and other actions of the wheelchair. The front wheels movement will be achieved by thrust generated from the rear wheels. The rear wheels are driving wheels to control the speed and direction. When in use, the operator drives the motor of the rear wheel by operating the joystick to achieve the rear wheels movement.
The motor and brake system are fixed on the rear wheels.
The max loading of the device is 120KG. Only for one person sit.

Dear Ariel Xiang:
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"

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 QS 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 (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-reporting-combination-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 Rule"). 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-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).

The indications for use, design, structure, composition, principle of operation and energy source of proposed device and predicate device are identical.The dimensions and performance parameters are similar.The main differences are motor and controller.
The design principles of the controller and Driving system are the same, and both meet the requirements of the ISO 7176-14. 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. Turning radius, Maximum obstacle climbing and Maximum safe operational incline 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 and ISO 7176-10.
The materials in contact with human tissue are identical for both proposed device and predicate device.The biocompatibility of the proposed device and predicate device meet the requirements of the ISO 10993-5:2009 & ISO 10993-10:2021 & ISO 10993-23: 2021.
