Sustainability in Drug Delivery Is a Human Factors Challenge

As sustainability goals reshape the pharmaceutical industry, much of the conversation has focused on materials, propellants, and emissions. In respiratory drug delivery, the transition to low global warming potential (low-GWP) propellants is a prime example of this shift, with the potential to significantly reduce the environmental impact of pressurized metered-dose inhalers (pMDIs).

Designing for Reality: Why Medical Device UX Must Account for Real‑World Use

Medical devices are rarely used in ideal conditions. Patients and healthcare providers interact with devices while managing stress, distractions, physical limitations, and time pressure. Yet too often, devices are designed around best case assumptions rather than real world behavior.

Navigating Human Errors in Medical Device Usage: Insights from Human Factors Research

Precision and reliability are essential in healthcare, and medical devices play a critical role in patient safety and therapeutic outcomes. Yet even the most advanced devices can fall short if they are not used as intended. Many adverse events are not the result of device malfunction, but rather use errors—situations where outcomes differ from what was intended due to how a device is designed, interpreted, or operated.
