Silos and Software in Medical Devices
With the increased complexity of devices, a streamlined approach to managing product development risks and documenting compliance is challenging but perhaps more important than ever.
Medical Device Development Outsource Selection? Consider a Checklist Manifesto
Using a checklist to find the best outsourced partner to develop your medical device can help reduce errors, increase safety and ultimately improve performance outcomes.

Design Considerations for Multi-Material Molding of Thermoplastic Elastomers
Multi-material molding, a process whereby at least one melt processible material is bonded with at least one other material to produce a single, molded component, allows designers to optimize material properties and costs, eliminate assembly processes, and even invent ground-breaking products that could not be manufactured otherwise.

How Good is Good Enough? The Importance of Medical Device Performance Specifications
Telling the parent their child has a temperature of 38.674 °C may be an impressive engineering feat, but the last two digits have no real value and any time spent in development getting there was misspent.

Overcoming Barriers to Improvement in Product Development
Despite a clear need to get better development lifecycle management solutions in place, companies are restricted by tight budgets, validation overhead, and bureaucracy. In this Q&A, Matt Harp and Angie Pepiot at Seapine Software share their insights.

Creative Prototyping for Medical Device Product Development
Prototyping is expensive. But creative construction and use of prototypes can dramatically improve the development process and save the development team a significant amount of time and money.
Accelerating Device Development Against Current Product Development, Regulatory Landscape
“If you are doing a wound care dressing, what is unique about the product, what are you doing differently than what is already in the market, what is it intended to be used for, who is using it, and where is it being used… All of these pieces of information help you decide how to proceed.” – Jeff Kaminski , President of MBK Tape Solutions. Excerpts from an interview.

Supercharging Brainstorms for Medical Device Development
When developing highly complex medical devices, the mountain of “interesting” ideas that result from traditional brainstorming all too often buckles under technical scrutiny. A more efficient and effective way to generate and refine ideas that are technically viable is needed.
