Our patient stories and company features.
As dialysis expertise involves a wide range of disciplines, a clash between the different working methods applied in the various specialist departments is something that is expressly desired. A dialysis machine incorporates knowledge from the fields of medicine, electronics, mechanics, physics, chemistry, and physiology, as well as production technology, process engineering, and IT. Catering for regional specifics is an increasingly important aspect of development work.
What are the implications for the design of a touch screen for a new dialysis machine if staff in Germany are used to and want no-frills displays, while in Asia, more playful ones with pictures are the cultural norm? The answers to questions like these are explored by international teams that collaborate on specific projects. That way, effective solutions can also be found more quickly for growth markets with specific regional needs.
