Human Factors Planning at DDP14 between Drug and Device Partners

FACT: The drug delivery technologies market will reach $224.2 billion by 2017* with the need for self-administration and home healthcare devices driving this growth.

REALITY: The FDA evaluates the Human Factors of drug devices which are now necessary for approval. Patient adherence has a $300 billion impact on healthcare, according to the New England Healthcare Institute.

PLAN OF ACTION: Join us at IIR’s 18th Annual Drug Delivery Partnerships in Boca Raton, FL this January 27-29 to learn how to engineer devices that meet Human Factor requirements as well as how to choose technologies developed with these requirements in mind.
