Welcome to the OVA Solutions knowledge hub. Here we share what we have learned building medical devices: prototyping and design transfer, what development actually costs and how long it takes, and the regulatory path through the FDA, ANVISA and COFEPRIS. Real numbers from real projects, not generalities.
To choose a medical device development firm, ask for three things before you talk about price: a device like yours that the firm took past
On a wearable knee monitor built on inertial sensors, published measurement error against optical motion capture runs 4 to 9 degrees, and the gait deficits
On a rehabilitation crutch that doses limb loading, the load cell is the solved part. Published measurement accuracy sits near an intraclass correlation of 0.97,
On a wearable controller for a neural implant the specification that matters is jitter, not latency. The implant is unserviceable, so every changeable function belongs
On a wearable stimulator the disposable electrode is the product and the electronics are its support system. The pad sets the load the output stage
A remote patient monitoring bracelet that measures blood pressure, ECG, oxygenation, pulse, and skin temperature looks on a requirements document like five independent subsystems sharing
A transport ventilator has to do everything an ICU machine does while weighing what a laptop bag weighs. Hamilton Medical lists the T1 at 6.5
