A manual wheelchair is a mobility aid, not a device designed to treat a medical condition or disease.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a manual wheelchair used for mobility assistance, not for diagnosing any medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Mechanical Wheelchair," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for providing mobility assistance to individuals, propelled by a caregiver. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the human body.
  • Device Description: It's described as a "Mechanical Wheelchair," which is a mobility aid.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in the body
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device for mobility assistance, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
