This week, Korey Johnson, Managing Partner of Bold Insight, contributed to the online journal MedTech Intelligence with his article, How to Boost Patient Confidence Through Medical Device Design. Johnson details several tactical design approaches that can help medtech manufacturers inspire patient confidence in their products and ensure proper usage.

“Medical device designs that begin with empathy, keep ease of use at the forefront, and incorporate affordances to confirm proper usage can support users to deliver and receive quality care,” said Johnson. “User confidence isn’t developed in a vacuum, and it’s not always built by a linear process. Listen to your users to integrate ways to increase their confidence as their needs for your product evolve.”
