The development of a portable ECG monitor - medical engineering meets emotional design
(2021) In Diploma work IDEM05 20202Industrial Design
- Abstract
- This project looks into the question of how a portable medical product that is used by the patient at home to communicate bioelectrical signals to their healthcare system, that achieves the medical requirement and the stakeholders’
needs for comprehension, function and usability can be designed. By using co-creation, user centered design- and emotional design tools, a design process which resulted in a portable ECG monitor and an app, was implemented. From
this, it was learned that these methods created a design process that resulted in
a product that fulfilled the stakeholders’
needs and suggestions of collaboration and branding that can
be part of the growth of a company. The knowledge learned
can be used in the field of as... (More) - This project looks into the question of how a portable medical product that is used by the patient at home to communicate bioelectrical signals to their healthcare system, that achieves the medical requirement and the stakeholders’
