Overview
AI-generated summary, 20 Sep 2026
This device is a Powered Wheelchair designed to minimize shear forces on users during reclining movements. The Reduced Shear OWR Recline System is engineered to reduce pressure-related injuries and improve seating comfort by controlling the angle of the seat back relative to the seat surface, thereby lowering friction and shear stress on the user’s body.
The system is intended for use in clinical and home settings, supplied as a reusable medical device. It is not MRI-safe and requires proper storage to maintain functionality. Authorized under FDA 510(k) clearance (K923362), it falls under the ITI product code and is classified as a Class II device under regulation 890.3860. No third-party review was required, and the device is regulated under the Physical Medicine specialty.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 20 Sep 2026
What is the primary purpose of the Reduced Shear OWR Recline System, and how does it benefit users?
The Reduced Shear OWR Recline System is designed specifically to minimize shear forces on users during reclining movements in powered wheelchairs. By controlling the angle of the seat back relative to the seat surface, it reduces friction and shear stress, which helps lower the risk of pressure-related injuries and improves overall seating comfort for users in both clinical and home settings.
Is this device intended for single-use or reusable applications, and what storage requirements should be followed?
The Reduced Shear OWR Recline System is supplied as a reusable medical device. Since it is not sterile out-of-the-box, proper cleaning and maintenance are required between uses. The manufacturer recommends storing it in a clean, dry environment to maintain functionality, though it is not MRI-safe, so magnetic fields should be avoided.
What regulatory pathway was followed for FDA clearance, and what classification does this device hold?
The Reduced Shear OWR Recline System received FDA 510(k) clearance under the traditional review pathway, with a decision code of *SESE* (Substantially Equivalent). It is classified as a Class II device under regulation 890.3860, regulated under the *Physical Medicine* specialty, and falls under the ITI product code. No third-party review was required for this submission.
Are there multiple models or sizes available for this system, and how would I identify the correct one for a patient?
The Reduced Shear OWR Recline System is associated with multiple FEI numbers (e.g., 3014522447, 3021071770, etc.), which likely correspond to different wheelchair models or configurations. While the exact specifications (e.g., weight capacity, seat dimensions) are not detailed here, these identifiers can be used to cross-reference with the manufacturer’s catalog or technical documentation to ensure compatibility with a patient’s specific wheelchair setup.
