INVESTIGATION ON METHODS AND CHARACTERISTICS IN MEDICAL DEVICE DEVELOPMENT
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 June 2020
Abstract
A targeted development of safe medical products can be supported by design methods. This paper analyses which design methods are applied in the development of medical devices and whether they are adapted for considering medical devices’ special features (legal, human and technical issues). In particular, variety management, risk assessment and user-centered design for medical devices are examined. Typically, interdisciplinary risk assessment is methodically supported. Additionally, user-centered design methods for requirements assessment, design verification and design validation are applied.
