Project Name: Ablation Forceps Appearance Design
Cooperation content: design analysis | appearance design | structural design | prototype production | accompanying running assistance
In the field of interventional medical devices, design is never a simple aesthetic decoration-it is a comprehensive carrier of functional landing, operational safety and brand recognition. The appearance design of ablation forceps introduced by APT Medical takes clinical operation requirements as the core and finds a precise balance between "medical professional attributes" and "humanized experience". Its three differentiated models (A, B and C) not only continue the family design language, but also optimize the details for different operation scenarios, thus becoming a typical case of medical device design.
1. Design Orientation: The "Function Priority Brand Unification" Orientation of Medical Devices
As the core instrument for cardiac interventional surgery such as arrhythmia, the design starting point of APT ablation forceps is "service operation efficiency and safety". Unlike consumer products, the appearance of medical devices must first be adapted to the clinical scenario: not only to meet the cleaning needs of aseptic operations, but also to allow medical staff to quickly familiarize themselves with the operating logic in high-intensity, high-precision surgery.
From the perspective of design positioning, APT ablation clamp adopts the strategy of "family differentiation": the three models all continue the visual framework of "unified layout of white main tone brand logo" and strengthen the professional brand cognition of APT Medical; At the same time, through the difference of color matching (orange, black, blue) and handle form, the suitable models of different operation scenes are distinguished-this design not only reduces the learning cost of medical staff, it also makes the classified management of instruments in the operating room more efficient.
2. Design Language: "Professional Expression" of Minimalist Medical Aesthetics"
The visual context of the medical scene is doomed to the "restraint" of its design language, and the appearance of APT ablation clamp is the embodiment of "minimalist medical aesthetics:
Color system: with pure white as the base and low saturation gray, black, blue and other neutral colors, it not only fits the "clean and calm" space atmosphere of the operating room, but also avoids the interference of high saturation color on the vision of medical staff. However, orange, blue and other embellishment colors are only used for interface and local decoration, which not only realizes model distinction, but also does not destroy the overall professional texture.
Morphological language: the fuselage is mainly smooth curved surface without sharp edges and corners-this is not only an aesthetic choice, but also in line with the "safety requirements" of medical devices: to avoid scratching gloves or tissues during operation, while reducing cleaning dead corners and reducing the risk of bacterial residue; The brand logo "APT Medical" is embedded in a conspicuous position of the fuselage in a simple font, which is not abrupt, but also can quickly complete brand identification.
3. design details: function-oriented "precise landing"
Every adjustment of the appearance details points to the actual pain points of the clinical operation:
Interface and logo design: the interfaces of the three models are distinguished by orange, black and blue respectively. medical staff can quickly match the corresponding consumables without looking at the text logo, thus shortening the operation preparation time. The green indicator light embedded in the B- type fuselage can feed back the working status of the equipment in real time, making the operation more "deterministic" and improving the operation safety.
Anti-skid and cleaning details: the strip anti-skid lines of type A handle and the hollow anti-skid design of type C handle are all optimized for the scene of "operation with sterile gloves"-increasing the holding friction while avoiding glove slippage; The surface of the fuselage adopts an integrated injection molding process, and the gap is controlled within the medical-grade standard, which not only facilitates high-temperature disinfection after operation, but also reduces the possibility of residual pollutants.
Lightweight design: The hollow structure of the C- type handle reduces the weight of the instrument without affecting the structural strength, and can relieve the arm fatigue of medical staff when held for a long time. This detail is just the embodiment of "design serves the operation experience.
4. Ergonomics: "Experience Optimization" for Clinical Operations"
Interventional surgery often requires medical staff to maintain a fixed posture and precisely control the equipment. The ergonomic design of APT ablation forceps directly determines the operation efficiency:
Handle shape adaptation: Type A adopts a curved handle that "conforms to the arc of the palm", and the palm is more evenly stressed when holding it, thus dispersing the fatigue of long-term operation. The ring handle of Type B is suitable for medical staff with different hand types, and can find a comfortable holding angle for both large and small hands. The "finger grip" handle of Model C allows fingers to exert more accurate power, meet the needs of "micro-force control" in ablation operations.
Operation power logic: the stroke and resistance of the trigger have been optimized through clinical tests-neither misoperation will be caused by too small resistance nor finger load will be increased due to too large resistance, thus realizing the balance between "precise control" and "labor-saving operation.
From appearance to experience, the design of APT ablation clamp always focuses on "clinical value": it conveys professionalism with minimalist medical aesthetics, solves operation pain points with detailed design, and relieves the workload of medical staff with ergonomics. This design logic of "function as the core and aesthetics as the wing" not only improves the clinical applicability of the device, but also redefines the "humanized design" of medical devices-making professional devices both efficient and safe, but also allowing operators Feel the temperature of the design.
