Medical Device Human Factors

Eximis Surgical is on the cutting edge of creating a revolutionary surgical device that will drastically improve the safety of a common surgical procedure.  They asked Sage to lead the Human Factors effort for their multi-piece system from conceptual design through validation testing.  We also designed the GUI for an important system component.  It’s been a privilege to work on this ground-breaking product that will bring a new level of safety to a common set of surgical procedures.
