Usability Engineering in Medical Devices
7,800 kr
Medical devices must meet certain requirements to be marketed in Europe and the United States. In the United States (through the FDA) it has been important for many years to apply the usability aspects during the product development; you should also be able to provide comprehensive documentation to prove that the usability aspects have been applied. In Europe, this will also come more into focus with the new regulations for medical devices (MDR/IVDR).
