Early Team Integration Leads to Market Success

Developing a medical device requires sensitivity to the delicate balance between usefulness, usability, desirability, and manufacturability. Every medical device must be useful (meet a need) and usable (easy to understand and manipulate properly) in order to gain regulatory approval. The elements of desirability (customer appeal) and manufacturability (efficient and reliable production processes) must also be woven into a medical device’s identity to satisfy business objectives.
