Title: Navigating Adhesive Obstacles on the Medical Device Design Journey
Event Type: Expo Education
Many factors are considered and decisions made during the medical device design process, but one aspect that is often overlooked—and in some instances realized too late—is the role pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA) play in the construction of the device and its adhering to the skin.
Avery Dennison Medical Business Director Michael Muchin addresses how and why device manufacturers and designers should plan ahead to ensure PSA selection is not an obstacle when bringing products to the marketplace. During his presentation he will cover the essentials related to how PSA tapes are successfully integrated into the design and functionality of medical devices ranging from patient population to wear times to device securement, as well as when PSAs should first be considered during design and the type of testing needed to support the device development.
