No
A motorized battery-powered wheelchair provides mobility assistance but does not treat or cure a disease or condition.

No
The device is described as a "Motorized battery powered wheelchair for mobility purposes by disabled persons," which indicates it is a mobility aid, not a diagnostic tool.

No

The intended use describes a "Motorized battery powered wheelchair," which is a hardware device. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "Motorized battery powered wheelchair for mobility purposes by disabled persons." This clearly describes a device used on a person for a physical function (mobility), not a device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens like blood, urine, or tissue for diagnostic purposes.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The provided information does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens.
    • Providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition.
    • Using reagents or assays.

Based on the intended use, this device is a medical device but not an IVD. It falls under the category of mobility aids.

Dear Mr. Kramer:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਬੋ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
