Design: Medical Device Portability

Increasing portability in medical devices is about making hard choices. There is always a cost for miniaturization, whether it be in functionality, battery life, or just plain old dollars and cents (and we’re talking millions). Pocket-sized and wireless medical devices may be the promise of the future, but some companies are forging ahead to make these devices today. Device design experts from the Medical Design Excellence Awards explore trends in portability, and discuss both the costs and the rewards of making medical devices to-go. Moderated by Heather Thompson, Managing Editor, MD+DI.
