Product design, a patient-centric approach

A patient- and sustainability-centric methodology
Thuasne® places design at the heart of its healthcare innovation strategy. This commitment reflects the Group's dedication to providing effective solutions for the treatment of diseases through creative, tailored and technical solutions.
Thuasne® places the user at the heart of the development of its medical devices. To do this, the Group organizes focus groups and user tests to observe patients' reactions, better understand their needs, and analyze their feelings. This interactive and collaborative method brings real added value to the design of the solutions we come up with.
The Group also relies on design language in the design of its solutions. This comprehensive methodology integrates design, research and development, and production, ensuring that each stage is tailored to the specific constraints of each project. It is about streamlining components, doing more with less, while keeping the end user at the center of everything we do. This approach allows recurring visual and functional codes to be deployed across all ranges in order to instantly identify a Thuasne® product. This unified language instills the brand's values into every device.
“The design of a healthcare solution must take into account both use and pain. We design every product to be easy to use, easy to wear. Its esthetics seek to promote its acceptance.”
