Design Consideration for Next Generation Medical Devices
On-demand Web Seminar
ABSTRACT

View this technical session to understand how your choice of hardware (silicon) and software for your next medical device design can help you overcome design challenges and daunting regulatory requirements.
Overview
View this technical session to understand how your choice of hardware (silicon) and software for your next medical device design can help you overcome design challenges and daunting regulatory requirements.
For medical device manufactures and engineers, the need to add features, enhance functionality and offer graphically rich user interfaces adds to a design's complexity. Add to that, the requisite to improve quality, mitigate risks and comply with strict regulatory requirements, such as PMA and 510(k) approvals often creates an unnecessary drain on scarce resources. How can these design considerations be managed successfully?
What You Will Learn
- Principal design and embedded software considerations for medical devices
- How to overcome design challenges by selecting the right hardware and software components
- Approaches to create more efficient design cycles and improve device quality that can lead to quicker regulatory approval
