| Abstract This paper presents current challenges of applying human factors engineering (HFE) throughout medical device development, and the opportunity digitalisation creates for innovation in the field. The paper focuses on describing current HFE challenges and examples of how digital tools and software applications can contribute to the work of HF specialists in the medical industry, noting that there is large, unmet need for more HF expertise. Finally, it briefly presents a case study of a software released by Emergo by UL Solutions which aims to address some of these challenges. |
