No
The description focuses on mechanical and electrical components for tilting and reclining, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
Yes
The intended use clearly states it "aids in the pressure relief" for individuals confined to a wheelchair, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is described as a "battery powered, motorized seating system" designed to provide "pressure relief" by tilting the seat and reclining the seat back of a wheelchair. This is a therapeutic or assistive device, not one that is used to identify or characterize medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly details physical components such as a battery-powered motorized seating system, welded steel frame assemblies, drive actuators, and aluminum plates for the seat and back. This indicates it is a hardware device with mechanical and electrical components, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to aid in pressure relief for individuals in power wheelchairs by adjusting the seat position (tilt and recline). This is a mechanical function related to patient comfort and physical positioning, not the diagnosis of disease or other conditions through the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
- Device Description: The description details a mechanical system with motors, frames, and actuators. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analysis of biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detection or measurement of analytes
- Diagnostic claims
- Use in a laboratory setting
The device is clearly a medical device, specifically a seating system for power wheelchairs, but its function is mechanical and therapeutic (pressure relief), not diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Its intended function and use is to aid in the pressure relief to persons confined to a powered wheelchair, by way of posterior tilt and reclining seat back.

Device Description
The Invacare Model 2G Power Tilt/Recliner Seating System for Power Wheelchairs is a battery powered, motorized seating system designed for use with power wheelchairs. Its intended function and use is to aid in the pressure relief of persons confined to a wheelchair, by providing a method of tilting the seat and reclining the seat back.
The tilting and reclining systems are separate modules and are independent of each other. As such, they will be offered as either a complete tilt/recline system, or as a separate tilt system or reclining system depending upon the users' needs. The reclining system also includes a movable leg rest feature.
The system includes an upper and lower frame assembly both of which are fabricated from welded steel. The lower assembly mounts directly to the wheelchair base using standard mounting screws. It includes the recline drive actuator as well as other mechanical components used to either tilt or recline the seating system.
The upper frame includes the wheelchair seat and back, as well as the tilt drive The seat and back are constructed of aluminum plates without actuator. upholstery. This allows the wheelchair user to decide the type of seat cushion that best meets their individual needs as determine by the health care provider.
