About Navigating MedTech with Northeast Biomedical
Listen to conversations with professionals on the way to navigate the complex and challenging path to having a device idea - going from a napkin sketch, all the way through clinical trials - and everything in-between!
Human Factors engineering plays a critical role in medical device development by focusing on how people interact with technology. By considering usability, safety, and user experience throughout the design process, engineers can create medical devices that are safer, more intuitive, and more effective.In our latest podcast, Northeast Biomedical hosts Tim Looney and Phil Andrusin are joined by Leya Bergquist, Human Factors Engineer at Claramed, to discuss the importance of Human Factors in medical device development. Together, they explore common design challenges, the value of early usability testing, and how incorporating user feedback can lead to better medical device solutions.

What is V&V Testing?
What does Verification & Validation (V&V) really mean in medical device development, and why is it so important? In this video, we break down the V&V process and the critical role it plays in developing safe, effective, and regulatory-ready medical devices. We’ll explore the difference between verification, "Did we build the device correctly?” and validation, “Did we build the correct device?” We’ll walk through the validation process, from defining user needs and intended use to developing validation requirements, creating test plans, using production-equivalent devices, conducting testing, analyzing results, and documenting objective evidence. We’ll look at how well-planned V&V testing can support FDA submissions, ISO 13485 QMS systems, risk management, and regulatory documentation. Whether you’re a biomedical engineer, medical device developer, startup, or established device company, understanding V&V is essential to proving that your device not only meets its specifications but works safely and effectively for the people who use it.
