One of the most powerful examples I’ve seen? The development of SymPhysis Medical's Releaze device—a catheter for patients with malignant pleural effusion (fluid on the lung), a condition affecting 50% of metastatic cancer patients. The goal? To give patients control over their own care. Instead of repeated hospital visits to have fluid drained, the Releaze device enables patients to manage it at home—freeing up more time to spend with loved ones at the most important stage of life. 𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙩’𝙨 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙣𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙨 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚. To secure FDA approval, they didn’t just build a product and hope for the best. They worked with the UK National Innovation Centre for Ageing (NICA) + #Voice to engage directly with users, gathering real-world insights into usability, comfort, and real-life needs. That’s what user-centred design really looks like. It’s not about assumptions. It’s about listening, testing, iterating—and designing with people, not just for them. And the result? Their approach didn’t just lead to better design—it led to real recognition, winning them the Collaboration in Medtech Award at the Irish Medtech Awards 2023 🙌 https://lnkd.in/dtRut9Yx Tim Jones Michelle Tierney Catherine Butcher Owen Wright Katrina P.
