Usabilty Study for a Medical Device
The device we are developing allows dermatologists to take small skin slices which can be used for tissue engineering as well as to treat wounds and scars. The current prototype will be redesigned for a clinical study. For this redesign the usability study will be an important part.
Keywords: usability, medtech, skin, medical, study
We are in the Pioneer Fellowship program of ETH and plan to make a spin-off. Our goal is to contribute to new treatment methods which improve the lives of millions of patients.
