MEDICA.de talked to Matthieu Valk, Marketing Communications Manager for the EMEA region at OMRON Healthcare Europe, about OEM partnerships and OMRON’s expectations of their own products.OMRON: “Our challenge is to present body metrics in a way that is simple and relevant” - Read more
Perseus A500: “We responded to user requests”
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[02/05/2013] Thousands of scientists worldwide are always developing numerous new products. Yet only a few of them actually come on the market and are able to compete. Many individual factors determine the success or failure of an idea. The anesthesia workstation by Dräger is one of those products that managed to successfully establish itself in the international medical technology market.Perseus A500: “We responded to user requests” - Read more
Usability Engineering: Patient-Centered Product Development
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[02/05/2013] Developers of medical devices have to ensure a good usability of their devices, because mistakes in handling can endanger a human life. This is especially true for equipment used by patients or family members autonomously. This is where usability engineering that involves users and their needs into the development process comes in: From the early concept right up to product testing.Usability Engineering: Patient-Centered Product Development - Read more
