Extensive design research with Arthroscopy clinicians

Console industrial and UX design focus on sports medicine

Intensive collaboration with CMO to preserve the brand intent

Contextual Inquiry and Design Development
• ArthroCare (Smith and Nephew) wanted to create a consumer-like design that would appeal to sports medicine clinicians
• Resulting console and handpiece concepts introduced a fresh design language that exuded dynamics and consumerism
• UX design borrowed cues from automotive infotainment graphic design and workflows but ensured surgical suite ergonomics were satisfied
• Overall user-experience was carefully evaluated while finalizing system logic, qualitative vs quantitative information presentation and display resolution
• Custom peristaltic pump featured a novel, patented closure system that maximized pump access and visualization during setup, while protecting the end-user during operation
• BH worked closely with the CMO and molding vendors to finetune the Console design, cosmetic details and Color/Materials/Finish specifications
