From the conception of medical electronics equipment design to manufacturing of the prototypes, the whole process needs professional expertise. This area is being paid special heed ever since the demand for non-invasive techniques has increased. The prototyping of medical equipment also calls for the need to be FDA approved so medical electronics design and prototype manufacturing is something that only expert and experienced companies can handle.
Here at Giltronics & Associates Inc, we refer to medical products under various categories like respiratory devices, diagnostic tools, disposable medical devices, endoscopic gear, medical instruments needed for various procedures and medical electronic equipment whether they include printed circuit board assemblies – PCBA’s or not. On the basis of FDA certification, they are classified into FDA class I, II and III devices. This classification enumerates the risks associated with the use of those devices. Class I includes low risk devices, class II includes devices that need moderately highly regulatory control and class II includes the devices that have the highest level of risks associated with them. Medical device manufacture and prototyping is therefore a complex procedure in terms of FDA regulation.
With the passage of time, medical electronics design and prototype manufacturing has evolved into a fiercely competitive industry with more and more companies striving to meet the precise needs of the health experts and the patients. It is also due to the fact that the need for personalized products and services, especially the medical electronic equipment to match the precise needs of the patients has increased considerably over the past decade. The rising medical costs have also necessitated the need for low cost devices that can be marketed globally while being medically beneficial and profitable at the same time. That is why more and more companies are jumping into the field of medical electronics design and prototype manufacturing.
The medical electronic products need to have precise properties for them to be marketable and our team at Giltronics & Associates inc continues to improve and prefect on. They need to be highly durable. They must be low cost too. They must be designed with materials that financially beneficial but are at the same time, not harmful for the general patient health. The potential benefits of using that electronic equipment must outweigh the hazards associated with them. They must be efficient and time conserving. The maintenance costs must be low and these electronic products must be able to meet the precise performance goals. They must be able to meet the space and time conservation criteria too.
There is an element of creativity involved when it comes to medical electronics design and prototype manufacturing. Development of medication time reminding pill boxes, automated recording of blood pressure and sugar levels etc. are some of the ideas that need innovative minds for their manufacturing. The pre-clinical and clinical phase evaluation of medical electronic equipment needs to be done precisely to assess their potential benefits as well as the risks.
Various electronic equipment like respiration monitors, non-invasive glucometers, physiotherapy equipment, lab measurement equipment, cardiac defibrillators, CT scanning and MRI equipment, biomedical testing and imaging electronics (including ultrasonography and X-ray imaging equipment), endoscopic apparatus, surgical tools, vitals monitoring equipment etc. are some of the very large list of products that this medical electronics designing and prototyping industry has given us and with time, these devices are expected to get better and refined in addition to the manufacture of newer and better products.
