EMEDEASTM Early Medical Device Assessment


Based on state-of the art systems analysis methods and risk assessment tools, we incorporate clinical, technical, and market components into an integrated assessment and management tool. This allows us to develop jointly with our clients a comprehensive understanding of the most important drivers of patient benefit and product success.

Using our EMEDEAS™ framework, our clients are able to

• identify the factors that are most critical to product success

• pinpoint and quantify uncertainties in various aspects of the technology and its application, and manage them accordingly

• perform scenario analyses and inform decision making at various stages of product development
