Driving successful medtech innovation
Dr. Stuart Grant explores the critical, yet often misunderstood, roles of customer needs and customer insights in driving successful medtech innovation.

Total Shoulder Arthroplasty and the Role of Robotic Surgery Systems
Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is a widely accepted surgical procedure for treating severe shoulder arthritis and other degenerative conditions affecting the glenohumeral joint. The procedure involves replacing the humeral head and glenoid cavity with artificial components, aiming to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve the patient’s quality of life. Traditional TSA relies heavily on manual techniques, and implant positioning is critical to achieving successful outcomes.
Perspectives on Analgesia in Patients with Nerve Blocks: A Pilot Surve
Introduction Treatment bias, a form of implicit bias where patient characteristics lead to inequal treatment, is a major problem in pain research.1 Prior literature has focused on treatment bias stemming from racial or ethnic differences. The influence of nerve blocks on treatment bias (administration of more or less medications to patients with nerve blocks) remains unexplored.
Reclaiming Our Physical Selves in Retirement
Saying goodbye to the Dad Bod and Muffin Top When people speak of what gives life meaning and purpose, some refer to being part of a group focused on a goal larger than themselves. In these associations, we find a grander sense of possibility. Our roles in the military, sports teams, political or social movements and charitable endeavours are some examples. For many of us, our first-hand experience of placing ourselves secondary to a larger purpose comes from family.
The Phenom
Noah Buschel’s Baseball Psychodrama In my disenchantment with the endless stream of remakes, franchises, biopics, and toy marketing movies emerging from Hollywood, I find my movie watching time better rewarded by indie offerings. I have found that the video streaming service, Kanopy, is an excellent resource for indie films. As a fan of actor Michael Shannon, I became acquainted with the work of writer/director, Noah Buschel. Shannon plays a boozy detective in Buschel’s, The Missing Person.
Comment: How to avoid the pitfalls of MedTech
Failure to launch a MedTech product is a very real risk - around three quarters of innovations do not make it to market. Common challenges to gaining market approval are usually governed by high-level standards (MDR, ISO, ASTM, MedDev, Risk Management, Biocompatibility) and there are well-travelled paths to overcome them. However, other potential problems during the innovation process often go unrecognised until it is too late.
Disentangling Men’s Problems From Women’s Advancement
One of the sadly consistent peculiarities of social movements is that extremists eventually seize the agenda. I always thought Gresham’s law (the bad drives out the good) referred only to economic and monetary matters. It appears to hold in the market for ideas as well. As the culture wars divide society ever further apart, civil society appears to have lost the ability to engage in civilized discourse.
Is Literature Feminine?
I present the evidence In the time between Alice Munro’s death and the unearthing of the scandal surrounding the sexual abuse of her daughter, there were ample tributes in the media attesting to her literary legacy. I watched one that featured an all-female panel of literary luminaries from publishing and academia. As Munro is Canada’s only Nobel Laureate in literature to date, I was struck by the uniquely feminine impact of her legacy as explored by the panel.

SAP BrandVoice: Why Removing Data Silos Is Key To Unlocking AI Value
By Stuart Grant, Global GTM for Capital Markets, SAP According to a recent McKinsey study, data silos cost businesses an average of $3.1 trillion annually in lost revenue and productivity.

Risk management as an innovation catalyst
In the intricate world of medical device development, risk management often conjures images of tedious paperwork and regulatory hurdles. However, a paradigm shift is underway. ISO 14971, the internationally recognized standard for medical device risk management, is emerging not just as a compliance tool, but as a powerful catalyst for innovation and improved patient safety. ISO 14971 offers a structured approach to systematically identify, assess, and control risks associated with medical devices.

Every Man Is An Island
Every Man Is An Island I came away moved by Crow’s Feet writer Sally Doran’s article, “Does Over-Sharing Help Women Live Longer?” It eloquently describes an online support group she formed with female friends. She expounds on the benevolent sense of community this group has provided for her. Even to the point of speculating whether this kind of sharing is why women outlive men.
Forgive Me For Running Out of Subject Matter
Forgive Me For Running Out of Subject Matter There are challenges with being a writer for multiple publications with numerous subject matter interests. Never settling with the same ones long enough to internalize their submission guidelines means constantly reorienting yourself. Some are very exacting as to minimum word count and read time while others are largely writer directed. So long as you stick to the subject matter and submit clean copy, you’ll eventually get published.
HBO's 'Charlie Hustle' is a Real Life Morality Play
It is said that you shouldn't meet your heroes. You may not like the person behind the accomplishments. Having invested yourself emotionally in outward adulation can affect your psyche, causing you to question your judgement and naïveté. There is a large public relations industry behind the manufacturing of heroes. The mainstream media, paparazzi and social media expend considerable effort building up those of unique accomplishment.
Taking a Moment
As a retiree of two years, I am becoming better acquainted with mortality. I have administered two estates of deceased aunts and am power of attorney for two cousins with disabilities. With parents and relatives in their eighties and nineties, I know and expect that certain calls will come. I received a call about the passing of a cousin two years my junior last month. I was aware she was in poor health and in an assisted living facility.
The Nation-State As Charitable Cause
When the country appeals to self-sacrifice My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. JFK It is said that war is the health of the state. If so, then the purpose of the nation state must be to lead us into and out of war. Going to war and fighting for your country are still viewed as noble sacrifices made for the good of the collective.
How Deep Purple Completed Sex Ed
When you think of the geography of sex, you think of sixties-era USA and Europe. The red light districts of Amsterdam and Hamburg have captured the wanderlust and imaginations of wayward young men for generations. Other European cities reportedly host live sex shows. Playboy's entrance into American pop culture marked a societal change that brought about free love, the gay rights movement, and the swinging lifestyle.
Why Sex Education is a Public Policy Failure
In the late 1990s, Canada's largest province, Ontario, introduced legislation to reduce the number of municipalities through amalgamation. As amalgamations were rolled out and municipal services merged, there was a period of adjustment. This period of harmonization was for jurisdictions to arrive at single service delivery models for what were once widely varied levels of service.
Is Public Spending on Immigration Equivalent to Vote Buying?
Perception and reality in public benefits to newcomers As someone old enough to remember the dawn of the internet, I recall an e-mail chain letter that found its way to my inbox. It criticized public spending on military veterans versus immigrants, making the case that Canada had its priorities askew. It implored us to contact our Member of Parliament to communicate our discontent.
The Great Transformation
We are advised to study history to understand how the status quo was arrived at. As technological advancement accelerates in quantum leaps with unforeseen consequences that tempt a dystopian imagination, the past may advise how humanity coped when confronted with similarly disruptive forces. The Industrial Revolution was one such period. It was named because it...
