Reviews"Overall, this text is a very good contribution to the literature and is recommended for those persons entering medical device design. It gives a very good overview of the need for and use of human factors in medical device design, especially as experienced in the United States. All information is logically presented and is, as is necessary, very patient-centric." --IEEE

SynopsisApplied Human Factors in Medical Device Design describes the contents of a human factors toolbox with in-depth descriptions of both empirical and analytical methodologies. The book begins with an overview of the design control process, integrating human factors as directed by AAMI TIR 59 and experienced practice. It then explains each method, describing why each method is important, its potential impact, when it's ideal to use, and related challenges. Also discussed are other barriers, such as communication breakdowns between users and design teams. This book is an excellent reference for professionals working in human factors, design, engineering, marketing and regulation., Applied Human Factors in Medical Device Design describes the contents of a human factors toolbox with in-depth descriptions of both empirical and analytical methodologies.
