A properly designed and executed wear study can be a powerful tool when selecting an adhesive for a medical device — an adhesive that enhances device effectiveness and durability, and end-user comfort. Yet, many device manufacturers tend to approach the selection of an adhesive with less rigor than the selection of other device components such as sensors, batteries, and transmitters.
This Tech Talk will explain why a wear study focused on adhesives is an important step on the path to device differentiation and commercial success. The audience will discover the collaborative process of creating a wear study protocol, the types of data that should be collected, and how to interpret results based on various design inputs.
