Indications for Use

The Future Mobility Healthcare Inc. Capella wheelchair is intended to provide mobility to persons limited to a sitting position.

Device Story

Capella and Capella 45 are manual, tilt-in-space mechanical wheelchairs; designed for mobility of persons limited to sitting position. Device features rigid aluminum frame; anti-tippers; adjustable seat width/depth; arm heights; and front riggings. Tilting mechanism operated by caregiver via levers on push bars connected by cables to gas springs (one gas spring for Capella 45; two for Capella). Device supports human weight up to 350 lbs (Capella) or 250 lbs (Capella 45). Used in various environments for patient transport or self-propulsion. Benefits include body weight redistribution for optimal positioning and comfort. Safety features include spring-return push-to-lock wheel locks and anti-tipper fixtures.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Device evaluated for stability, fatigue, and strength per ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol.1 and ISO 7176 (parts 1, 5, 7, 8, 11, 13, and 15). Results were satisfactory and met all applicable standards.

Technological Characteristics

Rigid aluminum frame; manual tilt-in-space mechanism using gas springs (one or two depending on model); adjustable dimensions (seat width/depth, arm height, back post height); anti-tippers; spring-return push-to-lock wheel locks. Materials meet California Technical Bulletin CAL 177 for flame retardancy. Tested to ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol.1 and ISO 7176 standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for persons limited to a sitting position requiring a manual wheelchair for mobility. No specific age or gender restrictions; intended for over-the-counter use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification
