Ensuring safety in device design

I’ve been thinking a lot about the balance between innovation and patient safety in our designs. As we push the limit with new technologies, I wonder how many of us consider the long-term implications of complexity. Just last month, I attended a seminar where experts highlighted the need for rigorous testing protocols. What are your thoughts on how we can improve safety measures while still embracing cutting-edge techniques?

I agree, especially after that seminar last month. Continuous feedback during testing can help catch issues early. Ever tried user simulation for real-world scenarios?
