Seamless collaboration solves myriad human-centered design, risk management and commercialization challenges to create a proprietary, non-invasive continuous glucose monitor (CGM) that integrates sophisticated technology with ultra-sensitive biosensors and advanced algorithms.
Phillips-Medisize incorporated human-centered design principles to help GlucoModicum streamline product development and ensure usability of an innovative, proprietary, needle-free continuous glucose monitor (CGM) called the Talisman.
- Supporting future commercialization efforts for this first-of-its-kind, proprietary CGM solution demanded fully integrated MedTech product planning, design, development and manufacturing expertise
- Ensuring patient safety, comfort and compliance meant designing for heightened usability—which required stringent quality assurance measures and rigorous testing
- Addressing strict regulatory requirements called for specialized experience and a proven track record bringing medical-grade wearables to market
- Phillips-Medisize employed a human-centered design approach that was crucial in streamlining product development—examining product usefulness, usability, desirability and manufacturability
- Seamless collaboration between GlucoModicum and Phillips-Medisize accelerated innovation, expediting development of 10 product iterations over 2 years
- Collaborative synergy will help enable hundreds of millions of devices and sensors to be produced once GlucoModicum receives regulatory approval from appropriate notified bodies and is ready for mass production
- Phillips-Medisize’s rapid yet collaborative product iteration saved GlucoModicum several years’ worth of product planning and development
- Shared commitment drove successful completion of usability studies and ongoing product refinement
- Experience in front-end innovation, human-centered design and usability testing proved crucial to the product development process
