The "E-2000 Power Tilt Seating System" is an elevating system designed to provide physical assistance and improve accessibility for individuals with certain physical limitations. The document explicitly states, "Accelerated Rehab designs makes no claims as to the therapeutic effectiveness of the product(s) listed." This indicates that the device is not intended for the treatment, diagnosis, cure, or prevention of disease, which are typically hallmarks of a therapeutic device.

No

The E-2000 Power Tilt Seating System is an elevating system designed to help individuals with physical limitations reach items that were previously unreachable. It is a mobility aid, not a device used to identify, measure, or monitor a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a motion system, ball drive tower actuator, brackets, mounting hardware made from aluminum and steel, and a toggle switch for activation. It is a physical elevating seat system for wheelchairs, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The "E-2000 Power Tilt Seating System" is a mechanical system designed to elevate a wheelchair seat. Its purpose is to improve accessibility for individuals with physical limitations.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The device does not interact with or analyze any biological samples from the patient.
  • Focus on Physical Function: The intended use and device description clearly focus on enhancing the user's physical ability to reach objects and interact with their environment.

The device is a mobility aid, specifically an accessory for a wheelchair, and falls under the category of medical devices, but not in vitro diagnostics.

Dear Mr. Potter:

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. A 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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
