Larger Blood Pressure Cuffs, Please!
|
Posted by Stephanie Monk
If you ask any nurse or doctor about blood pressure (BP) cuffs, one of
the most common questions you will receive is "Why can't we get a
larger cuff?" With the obesity epidemic increasing globally, the need
for larger blood pressure cuffs is becoming more pronounced. The World
Health Organization states that "currently more than 1 billion adults
are overweight - and at least 300 million of them are clinically
obese."
So why can't BP cuff manufacturers just make larger size cuffs?

Save Time and Money with a Regulatory Approval Pathway for Medical Devices
|
Posted by Kenny Andersen
As a medical device manufacturer, we at SunTech Medical have a full
appreciation for how laborious the regulatory approval process can be
when bringing a product to market. Understanding the rules and
requirements can help a medical device manufacturer avoid
time-to-market delays and inflated project costs. It is with this unique perspective that we frequently assist our OEM
partners with overcoming regulatory hurdles related to automated blood
pressure to help them get to market on time while keeping costs to a
minimum.
