The document details compliance with various ISO and ANSI/RESNA standards for performance testing. These standards typically involve specific test setups and a limited number of test units (e.g., one or a few devices) for physical and electrical performance evaluations rather than large "sample sizes" in the statistical sense (like patients in a clinical trial). The tests described are laboratory-based performance tests for the device itself.
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated in terms of a "test set" sample size for statistical analysis (e.g., number of patients/cases). Instead, it refers to testing of the device(s) themselves. The implied sample size for each performance test is usually one or a few devices/components as per the specific test standard.
- Data Provenance: The tests are standard-based performance tests, likely conducted in a controlled laboratory environment by the manufacturer or a certified testing facility. The document refers to "Performance Testing" without specifying the location. Based on the manufacturer's location (Taiwan), it is likely conducted there or by an internationally recognized testing body.
- Retrospective or Prospective: These are laboratory performance tests performed on the device model, not a retrospective or prospective study on users.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts
Not applicable. This is not a study involving expert assessment of images or clinical outcomes where a "ground truth" is established by human experts. The "ground truth" for these tests is defined by the objective measurement criteria and methodologies specified in the respective ISO and ANSI/RESNA standards. For example, static stability is measured by specific angles and forces, not by expert opinion.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. There is no adjudication method described because there are no human-based assessments requiring reconciliation of opinions. The tests are objective measurements against defined standards.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done, What was the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs. Without AI Assistance
Not applicable. This is a 510(k) for a physical medical device (mobility scooter), not an AI/CAD (Computer-Aided Diagnosis) software. Therefore, no MRMC study or AI assistance is relevant.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done
Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or software requiring standalone performance testing.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
The "ground truth" in this context is defined by the objective and measurable criteria set forth in the international consensus standards (ISO 7176 series, ANSI/RESNA WC-2, ISO 10993 series, etc.). For instance:
- Static Stability: Ground truth is specific angles (e.g., 6 degrees incline) at which the device must remain stable.
- Maximum Speed: Ground truth is the measurement of the device's actual maximum speed.
- Biocompatibility: Ground truth is the results of specific chemical and biological tests (e.g., cytotoxicity, irritation) as per ISO 10993.
These are objective, quantitative measurements, not subjective expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. "Training set" refers to data used to train machine learning models. This document is about a physical device and its performance testing against engineering standards, not AI.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, for the same reason as point 8.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and the Data Provenance
This document describes premarket notification (510(k)) for a medical device. It relies heavily on performance testing conducted according to recognized international standards (ISO and ANSI/RESNA), along with a comparison to a predicate device.
- Sample Size: The document does not specify the number of individual units (scooters) subjected to these performance tests. Typically, in compliance testing for medical devices, a representative sample (often one or a few units) is tested to demonstrate adherence to the standard's requirements, as the standards themselves dictate the testing procedures. It's not a study involving a large "test set" of patient data in the way an AI algorithm might be evaluated.
- Data Provenance: The tests are performed by the manufacturer or accredited testing laboratories against international standards. The provenance is the manufacturer (Heartway Medical Products Co., Ltd., Taiwan) and the test reports generated by these compliance tests. This is a prospective assessment in the sense that the device was manufactured and then tested for compliance, rather than analyzing pre-existing patient data.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts
This type of device submission (510(k) for a physical product like a mobility scooter, relying on engineering performance standards) does not typically involve "experts establishing ground truth for a test set" in the way an AI/software medical device does for clinical data. The "ground truth" here is adherence to the recognized engineering and safety standards (e.g., whether the brake effectively stops the scooter, whether the frame can withstand certain forces). This "ground truth" is established by the standard's specifications and the objective measurements of testing laboratories, not by expert consensus on clinical findings.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are used in clinical studies or for establishing ground truth for diagnostic AI, where there are subjective interpretations involved. The performance testing for this scooter involves objective measurements against engineering standards.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done, What was the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs without AI Assistance
Not applicable. This is a physical medical device (mobility scooter), not an AI/software device that assists human readers/clinicians.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done
Not applicable. This is a physical medical device.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" is defined by the requirements and methodologies specified in the international performance standards (ISO 7176 series, ANSI/RESNA WC-2, CISPR, IEC). For example, the ground truth for "static stability" is defined by the test procedures and quantitative acceptance criteria within ISO 7176-1. The ground truth for "biocompatibility" is defined by the pass/fail criteria of the specified ISO 10993 tests.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI/machine learning model that requires a "training set."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample Size: This document does not specify a "test set" in the context of a statistical study with a specific number of units. The testing refers to conformity with established international and national standards (ISO, ANSI/RESNA, CISPR, IEC) for medical devices like powered wheelchairs. Typically, such testing involves a limited number of physical units (prototypes or production samples) of the device being evaluated, not a large "test set" of data samples. The exact number of units tested is not provided.
- Data Provenance: The tests were performed according to international standards for wheelchair performance and safety. The location where these tests were conducted is not explicitly stated, but the manufacturer is based in Taiwan, R.O.C., so it is likely undertaken by a certified lab either in Taiwan or abroad. The nature of these tests is prospective (evaluation of the device itself) rather than retrospective data analysis.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- This information is not applicable to this type of submission. "Ground truth" in this context is established by the well-defined and quantitative metrics and methodologies specified within the cited international engineering and safety standards (e.g., ISO 7176 series). Expertise is embedded in the standards themselves and the accreditation of the testing facility, rather than a panel of clinical experts establishing ground truth for individual cases.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
- Not applicable. Performance against engineering and safety standards is typically determined by objective measurements and pass/fail criteria defined within the standards, not through adjudication by multiple experts.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
- No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not performed. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic imaging AI devices, where human readers (e.g., radiologists) interpret images with and without AI assistance. The HEARTWAY Electrically Powered Wheelchair is a physical medical device for mobility, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, so such a study would not be relevant.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. The device is a physical powered wheelchair, not an algorithm. Its performance is evaluated through physical and electrical testing against established standards, not as a standalone algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used
- The "ground truth" for the device's performance is defined by adherence to the objective, measurable parameters and criteria set forth in the international engineering, safety, and electromagnetic compatibility standards (e.g., ISO 7176 series, ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol.2, CISPR, IEC for EMC, ISO 10993 for biocompatibility, UL for chargers). These standards represent an industry consensus on acceptable performance and safety for such devices.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device. There is no 'training set' in the context of algorithm development.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable, as there is no training set mentioned in this context.

Summary of the Study (510(k) Submission for Substantial Equivalence):
The "study" described in these documents is essentially a demonstration of substantial equivalence for the HEARTWAY Power Mobility Scooter, S11, to a legally marketed predicate device, the HEARTWAY Power Mobility Scooter, PF6 (K072104).
The core of the submission focuses on demonstrating that all critical safety and performance aspects of the new device are either identical to the predicate device or meet relevant recognized consensus standards.
Key arguments for substantial equivalence include:
- Identical Intended Use: Both devices provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position.
- Similar Materials: Mainframe materials are fixed and meet strength and fatigue tests; back upholstery uses the same fabric and passed ignition resistance.
- Similar Components/Design: Suspension, cross brace, footplates, incline degree, and armrest type are all the same.
- Identical & Certified Electronic Systems: The electronic systems (controller, batteries, switches, power supplies) are from the same suppliers and are UL certified, ensuring the same safety level.
- Compliance with Standards: The device underwent performance testing against EMC Report ANSI / RESNA WC/Vol.2-1998, CISPR 11: 1990, EN61000-3-2: 1995, and IEC61000-3-3: 1995.
The differences noted (overall appearance, weight capabilities, maximum speed, and total weight) are argued not to affect the safety and effectiveness, and thus the devices are considered substantially equivalent. The new device also has an additional "free-wheel" manual feature, which is presented as an advantage rather than a safety concern.
