Selecting the Right Materials and Using Innovative Manufacturing
Wearable Medical Devices combine reliable biosensors and digital connectivity in an easy to use, comfortable, and format safe for patient use. By selecting the right materials and using innovative manufacturing and assembly processes that exceed medical regulations and requirements, these high-tech, affordable solutions bring health care to the next level. Each component requires careful material selection to optimize both performance and cost.
Cover layers must balance breathability for patient skin comfort as well as waterproofing to protect electronics. Cushioning layers must protect electrical connections without adding excessive weight or rigidity. Batteries, PCBs, and flexible circuits must operate reliably with minimal complexity. Hydrogels must provide reliable signal conductivity, withstand intended wear time, and be comfortable and safe for skin-contact.
