Medical Devices constitute a complex element of the modern healthcare systems. Product development of a modern Medical Device is the most crucial phase of the product lifecycle because a poorly designed device will not make its way through regulatory compliance into the market. Besides, failure to have adequate safely measure will undermine conformity with essential requirements.
Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is a method for structured product planning and development that enables a development team to specify clearly the customer's wants and needs, also known as Voice of Customer and then to evaluate each proposed product or service capability systematically in terms of its impact on meeting those needs.
Neuromuscular transmission (NMT) is the process of moving of impulse between the nervous system and the muscle in the neuromuscular junction. The measurement of NMT ElectroSensor is done by the electrical activity of the muscle with electrodes and quantifying the response to nerve stimulation.
This thesis aims to capture part of the development process of disposable NMT sensor by using QFD methodology.
