The hip and knee replacement markets in India and China currently are underserved, and present tremendous opportunities for large joint device manufacturers.
Three potential paths exist when seeking regulatory approval in both the European Union and the United States: E.U. first, U.S. first, and simultaneous. The simultaneous approach, while seemingly complicated, streamlines the process, condenses the documentation, and reduces time to market.
Rising demand for electronic components -- driven by the automotive, defense, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing industries -- could create supply challenges like price volatility, counterfeiting, relabeling, selling out-of-date parts, and double- or triple-booking orders
Companies developing new healthcare products for Millennials have implemented a lot of the pieces of the puzzle of how to serve them better; unfortunately, disconnects in how those pieces link together to track the entire patient journey reduce the effectiveness of those efforts.
Advances in sensors, smartphones, communications, and analytics give developers new tools to build creative and powerful applications that promise to improve health outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
As component sizes for medical devices shrink to micron size, conventional machining may not be the most efficient or consistent method for manufacturing. Learn why Micro-MIM is preferred for components with tight tolerances at high volumes.
Sustaining engineering enables the developer to plan ahead, getting the development and design of the device done right the first time, and smoothing the transition to manufacturing. KMC's executive director of engineering, Scott Leon, weighs in on the subject.
The business pain of switching suppliers, both in terms of costs and revalidation time, heightens the importance of making the right decision the first time.
