No
The summary does not mention any terms related to AI or ML, nor does it describe functionalities that typically rely on these technologies. The device is described as a "Powered Wheelchair," which is a standard medical device without inherent AI/ML capabilities based on this description.

No.
The device is a powered wheelchair intended for mobility assistance, which typically falls under durable medical equipment rather than a therapeutic device that actively treats a disease or condition.

No
The device is described as an "Electro-LiteEM® Powered Wheelchair" and its intended use is for "non-ambulatory or mobility impaired individual," which clearly indicates it is a mobility aid, not a diagnostic device. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or process any medical data.

No

The device description explicitly states "Electro-LiteEM® Powered Wheelchair," which 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 for "non-ambulatory or mobility impaired individuals," which describes a physical condition and a need for mobility assistance.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "Powered Wheelchair." This is a medical device used for mobility, not for testing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition
    • Using reagents or assays

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. A powered wheelchair does not fit this description.
