Study Details:
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- The document states "Non-clinical tests were conducted to verify that the proposed device met all design specifications." This typically implies testing of a representative sample of the manufactured device models. Specific numbers for each test (e.g., how many units were tested for static stability) are not provided.
- Data provenance: The tests were performed by the manufacturer, Ningbo Baichen Medical Devices Co., Ltd., which is located in China. The data would be considered retrospective in the sense that the testing was completed prior to the 510(k) submission, but it's prospective in relation to the design validation process.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- This question is not applicable in the context of this device and study type. The "ground truth" for non-clinical performance (e.g., static stability, brake effectiveness) is defined by the technical specifications and limits set forth in the international standards (ISO, IEC). The testing involves objective measurements rather than expert interpretation of data like in an image-based diagnostic study.
-
Adjudication method for the test set:
- This question is not applicable. Adjudication typically refers to resolving discrepancies in expert interpretations (e.g., 2+1 means 2 out of 3 experts agree, 3+1 means 3 out of 4 agree, with a fourth to resolve ties). Since these are objective physical performance tests against established numerical standards, there is no expert adjudication process. The results are either within the standard's limits or they are not.
-
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:
- This is not applicable. This is an Electric Wheelchair, a physical medical device, not an AI software intended for interpretation by human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant.
-
If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- This is not applicable. This is a physical medical device. While it contains an "Electronic controller" (SYC-PM30), the performance described (e.g., speeds, stability, braking) is a property of the integrated physical device, not a standalone algorithm. Software validation was performed for the control system, as mentioned under the difference D#11, but this is part of the overall device's non-clinical testing, not a standalone algorithm performance study in the context of diagnostic AI.
-
The type of ground truth used:
- The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by international consensus standards (ISO and IEC). These standards define the acceptable performance parameters and test methods for electric wheelchairs to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- This question is not applicable. This is a physical medical device. There is no "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI algorithms for this type of device. The design and validation are based on engineering principles and compliance with established standards.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- This question is not applicable, as there is no training set for this device.
In summary, the provided document details a non-clinical performance study demonstrating substantial equivalence through rigorous adherence to internationally recognized safety and performance standards for electric wheelchairs. The specific metrics are defined by these standards, and the device's performance met these criteria through objective physical testing.

It refers to "the subject device" (singular), implying that at least one physical unit of the YE200 electric wheelchair was subjected to the various performance, strength, climatic, and EMC tests. For biocompatibility, individual material samples would have been tested.
- Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin of the data collection or whether it was retrospective or prospective. However, given that Shenzhen Yattll Industry Co., Ltd is based in China and the submission is to the FDA, it is highly likely that the testing was performed by a certified lab, possibly in China or a mutually recognized testing facility. Since it's for a 510(k) submission for a new device model, the testing data would be prospective relative to the submission date, generated specifically for this application.
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 in the context of this 510(k) summary. The "ground truth" for an electric wheelchair's performance is established by objective, measurable outputs against defined engineering and safety standards (e.g., maximum speed, braking distance, stability angles, EMC limits, biocompatibility results), not by expert consensus or interpretation of complex medical images. The testing labs would have qualified technicians and engineers performing these measurements according to ISO/IEC protocols.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
This is not applicable. Adjudication methods (like 2+1 or 3+1) are typically used in medical imaging studies where there's subjective interpretation by multiple readers/experts that needs to be reconciled to establish a "ground truth" for diagnosis. For engineering performance tests like those for an electric wheelchair, the tests yield objective, quantifiable results, not subjective interpretations requiring adjudication.
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:
This is not applicable. This document is for an electric wheelchair, which is a physical mobility device, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human readers/clinicians interpreting data. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant to demonstrating its safety and effectiveness.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
This is not applicable. This device is an electric wheelchair, which does not have an AI algorithm that functions in a standalone capacity. It is a user-controlled device with embedded electronic controls. While software validation was performed, it's for the control system of the wheelchair, not for an AI algorithm for diagnostic purposes.
7. The type of ground truth used:
The "ground truth" for the performance of the electric wheelchair is objective, measurable performance criteria defined by internationally recognized standards (ISO 7176 series, ISO 10993 series, IEC 60601-1-2) and engineering specifications. For example:
- Static stability: Measured in degrees.
- Braking distance: Measured in meters.
- EMC: Measured against specific radiated/conducted emission and immunity limits.
- Biocompatibility: Results of specific biological tests (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation) against defined pass/fail criteria.
- Strength/Fatigue: Ability to withstand specified forces for a given number of cycles.
The predicate device's performance also serves as a crucial point of comparison, establishing substantial equivalence rather than a medical "ground truth" in the diagnostic sense.
8. The sample size for the training set:
This is not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device that requires a "training set" of data. The device's functionality is based on established engineering principles and pre-programmed controls, not learned patterns from data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
This is not applicable as there is no "training set" for this type of device.
