Despite declining prices, technological innovation and other developments in the orthopedic biomaterial product market have maintained the market’s growth, drawing in patients with easier-to-perform and more efficient procedures.
Segmenting patients, providing physicians with guidance on which ones your technology suits best, and clearly stating expected outcomes helps to drive use, preference, and — eventually — increased adoption rates.
A validation master plan (VMP) outlines the principles involved in the qualification of a facility, defining the areas and systems to be validated, and provides a written program for achieving and maintaining a qualified facility. Master plans are written to assist an organization with validation strategies or to provide control over a specific process.
Obtaining early clearance with a narrower claim enabled this company to enter the market earlier, as well as use its own product as a predicate to collect real-world evidence — all while obtaining broader clearance and avoiding the requirement to document patient-informed consent during trials, since the device already had been cleared.
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.
Micromolding requires a high level of intimacy and attention to detail to be successful over the long run, so it’s important to work with micromolder with the capability, scalability, and sustainability to get a product from the design stage all the way to high-quality mass production.
MTD Micromolding is solely committed to providing the highest quality micromolding services of advanced medical products. MTD offers their innovative skills in exploring and producing very small, delicate, and intricate components required for advanced medical applications and products such as specialized surgeries, bioabsorbable devices, and implant devices. With a constant demand for newer, smaller, never-before-seen micro medical devices, MTD is also prepared to assist their strategic partners in the development of new solutions.
SIMULIA’s solutions for medical device development provides a framework for engineering teams to integrate the tools they use into re-usable, deployable processes. This reduces time-consuming and error prone tasks to improve productivity and consistency, while enabling design exploration studies to find better designs and democratization to expand the user-base for simulation. Lastly, capturing these processes in the 3DEXPERIENCE® platform provides the traceability organizations need when making critical business decisions.
Canon’s coreless motors are part of the family of dc-motor products that are custom manufactured to achieve the exact speed, power, and currents required for OEM applications. These motors feature a small footprint, high power output, and a low moment of inertial that provides quick response rates and high controllability. They are ideal for many applications including cameras and pumps. Customization and other options are available on request.
Carclo's product engineers have multiple years of experience with medical device prototyping and design. They address your medical device design needs by getting involved as early in the product prototype and design cycle as possible.
For over three decades, the Lee Company Electro-Fluidic Systems Group has been an industry leader in electromechanical valve and pump technology.
