Create detailed schematics and select the appropriate components for optimal performance. Successfully design and fabricate the printed circuit boards (PCBs). Software Development: Develop and debug firmware to ensure the smart injector operates efficiently and accurately. Implement coding solutions that enhance the functionality and reliability of the device. Ensure seamless integration between the hardware and software components for optimal performance. Overall, learners will gain comprehensive experience in both hardware and software aspects of medical device development, contributing to the successful creation of the Pocket Clinic smart injector.
Electrical Circuit Design for a Medical Device
We are developing a biosensor for various chronic diseases. Currently, we are looking for a team of students who can get involved in a smaller part of the project where we need to develop the mechanical assembly along with the required electronics and software. The goal of this project is to improve upon a currently existing and operational (but not optimized) electrical system within a hardware product and assist in the assembly and testing of a new electronic hardware product. The product is a smart injector with sensors and a microprocessor for drug delivery. We hope the student will learn more about electronics design, testing protocols, and quality assurance. The improvements will be evaluated by a number of factors including safety of the design, regulatory compliance, cost reduction, simplification (reduction in component numbers or size), and quality of components/suppliers chosen.
ISO 13485 Implementation Plan
The Objective Implementation plan to achieve compliance with the ISO 13485:2016 standard (Medical devices — Quality management systems — Requirements for regulatory purposes). Primary Focus of the Project: Research and determination of the ISO 13485:2016 Compliance Requirements. Gap Analysis and determination of where we need to improve or implement new controls. Prepare documentation Requirements in ISO 13485
