Healthcare and Medical
Luxencia Peritoneal dialysis machine - located at home for overnight dialysis while the patient sleeps.
A single use cassette and tube set that simply plugs into the main unit, with onscreen instruction allows the patient to conduct their own dialysis with comfort, convenience, and dignity. The intuitive system communicates the detail of each dialysis session over a secure internet link, and can connect with healthcare professionals if, and when it is needed by the patient allowing support and peace of mind.
Aseptika - Self-care smartwatch reducing the burden on the health service and keeping people out of hospital.
Nemaura. Solid Dose Micro Injector DesignThe device works by depositing the drug under the outer layer of the skin using a metal needle which then retracts completely, minimising the risk of stick injuries. The solid dose delivery device which has been designed for safe patient self-administration, has the potential to improve control over drug release and absorption, improve stability performance, and either partially, or completely, eliminate the cold storage requirements for vaccines and biologics.
New system aims to reduce the incidence of Diabetic KetoAcidosis.Oxford Medical Diagnostics (OMD), a leading developer of advanced proprietary methods of analysing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in breath, has contracted Renfrew Group International (RGi) for the engineering and technical design of a portable breath analysis platform.

Humanising technology - 7 essentials
“If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend fifty-five minutes thinking about the problem and five minutes thinking about solutions.”
Overall project planningReduce risk of failure; increase chance of successRegulatory matters included at early and regular design reviews
Plan well
Test the science………..Focus on the main benefits - Reduce complexity - Reduce costs.Is the science deliverable in a practical sense? Can it be packaged differently or be delivered in a new, simpler or improved way?
Understand the Science
Researching the unmet need
Understand the User
Researching the unmet need
“It’s not just about understanding the needs that users articulate, it’s about understanding the needs the user doesn’t articulate.”
Understand the User
Defining product virtually and identifying the applicable standards. Review the design early.Visualise and prototype. Establish direction early.
Explore concepts
Digital mannequinsSoftware that “sees” what the mannequins seesEnsures a positive user experience
Understand the User
Designing for production from first concept, can reveal new options, capabilities or revenue streamsIs the consumable element optimised?
Can we make it in a different way, using standard or mass production techniques, in a low volume method very early on?
Consider manufacturing options early
Early Prototypes…
Considering the whole care pathway.Design of task/product - catalyst to whole service re-designReduce complexity – promote simplicity
Understand the User
Diverse concepts – starting to define

Design and build project for NHSBT – Blood Donation Chair
Practical Rehearsal
Design and build project for NHSBT – Blood Donation Chair
A derivation of the Blood Donor Chair designed for general examination and therapy administration. The new design comes as a self assembly pack.
People will do what they want to do, much more often than what they should be doing.We are able to step back a little from the problem and respond as designers, objectively and subjectively. Design for appeal. Design smart products
Ensure Design Appeal
These images were gathered during National Blood Week, from real people who have given blood in the chair we’ve created in collaboration with the NHS.
