Summative FDA Testing
Areteworks understands that healthcare device development needs to occur quickly yet safely. Our Human Factors experts can conduct summative usability tests in-person or sometimes (if possible) through remote means. Summative usability tests act as final validation that the safety and use of healthcare devices have been addressed and all FDA requirements have been met. We analyze the testing data and quickly iterate a design that meets government safety regulations.

Areteworks’ Design Thinking approach is a flexible user-centered iterative process to help innovate and design intuitive user interactions for resolving users’ pain-points.
