MedTech manufacturing, like other socio-economic and productive systems, can be seen as a complex system. Indeed, it involves a wide range of interacting components such as suppliers, manufacturers, regulators, distributors, healthcare providers, patients, and so on. These components are interrelated and interdependent, each affecting the others differently. Today’s challenges are mainly related to the transition of healthcare to more sustainable models, complying with new and increasingly stringent regulations, and meeting environmentally driven market demands. To meet these challenges, it is necessary to understand the complexity and interconnectedness of the different components of the MedTech manufacturing system and to address the various factors that influence the performance of medical devices. This requires a systemic approach and the involvement of multiple stakeholders in the design, implementation and evaluation processes.

Abstract
MedTech manufacturing, like other socio-economic and productive systems, can be seen as a complex system. Indeed, it involves a wide range of interacting components such as suppliers, manufacturers, regulators, distributors, healthcare providers, patients, and so on. These components are interrelated and interdependent, each affecting the others differently. Today’s challenges are mainly related to the transition of healthcare to more sustainable models, complying with new and increasingly stringent regulations, and meeting environmentally driven market demands. To meet these challenges, it is necessary to understand the complexity and interconnectedness of the different components of the MedTech manufacturing system and to address the various factors that influence the performance of medical devices. This requires a systemic approach and the involvement of multiple stakeholders in the design, implementation and evaluation processes.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
