Preventing Medical Device Recalls (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Based on the author's extensive experience in the medical device, aerospace, and manufacturing engineering industries, this book presents a detailed structure for systems thinking that can help to prevent costly device recalls. Based on Dr. W. Edwards Deming's System of Profound Knowledge, this structure can help medical device designers and manufacturers exceed their customers expectations for quality and safety. This book is among the first to demonstrate how to control safety risks from specifications all the way through to safely retiring products without harm to the environment.
