[ Learn More ](https://www.sanbormedical.com/en/solutions/hybrid-manufacturing) October 17, 2022 # New Technologies in Medical Device Manufacturing [Joe Pignotti](https://www.sanbormedical.com/blog/author/joe-pignotti) [mailto:?subject=Check%20out%20https://www.sanbormedical.com/blog/medical-device-manufacturing-trends](mailto:?subject=Check%20out%20https://www.sanbormedical.com/blog/medical-device-manufacturing-trends) Medical device manufacturers are continually innovating and using the latest technology to support the healthcare industry, leading to improved patient care, accurate data collection, and much more. In this post, we’ll take a look at some groundbreaking innovations happening across the medical device manufacturing industry. Emerging Technologies and Trends in U.S. Manufacturing  Some of the emerging trends we're seeing in medical device manufacturing include:  ### 3D Printing Since the emergence of 3D printing a few years ago, a lot of discussions centered around how this innovative technology can help the medical field have taken place. When you consider the fact that the global 3D printing medical devices market is slated to grow at a CAGR of above 15% until 2028 [1], it’s easy to see that more and more medical device manufacturers are hopping on board this trend. In the medical field, 3D printing can be used to create prosthetic body parts, medical implants and devices, and custom 3D-printed dosage forms and drug delivery devices [2]. It also comes with some pretty impressive cost- and time-saving benefits.  ### Smart Implants Smart implants take the trend of wearable devices a step further. These devices are equipped with sensors that enable them to communicate with smartphones, computers, tablets, etc., while being implanted in a patient’s body rather than merely worn on the outside. This is integral in facilitating real-time monitoring of patients’ health conditions, making it easier for doctors to provide accurate treatment and intervene as soon as something goes wrong. The smart implants market is expected to reach a market value of more than $22 billion by 2023 [3]. ### Cybersecurity As connectivity reaches new heights across the U.S. manufacturing industry for medical devices, the risk of cyberattacks increases exponentially. This puts hospitals and clinics at risk of losing sensitive patient information and data, falling victim to ransomware attacks, and even having life-saving devices hacked and shut down. For these reasons, we are seeing a lot of focus in the medical device manufacturing industry being turned to cybersecurity and ensuring all of this new technology is safeguarded. This requires collaboration between device manufacturers, healthcare providers, and the government. ### Artificial Intelligence Another exciting technology that's changing the healthcare landscape in 2022 and beyond is artificial intelligence (AI). AI is very valuable for the early detection of diseases and for confirming accurate diagnoses. One area it's been making significant strides in is breast cancer care, where it enables the review of mammograms to be 30 times faster, with 99% more accuracy. This is an important innovation to reduce the need for unnecessary biopsies. Artificial intelligence is also helping healthcare providers create more comprehensive treatment programs that help patients manage their conditions more effectively. ### Telemedicine During the COVID-19 pandemic, telemedicine (with a major push from [remote patient monitoring](https://remetrichealth.com/remote-patient-monitoring-offers-hope-in-the-fight-against-covid/)) went from being a little-known-about luxury to a necessity. Now that the world has opened back up, telemedicine is still highly used among patients [4], particularly in mental health. In fact, the global telemedicine market is projected to grow from $68.36 billion to $218.49 billion by 2026. [5] Telehealth, along with remote patient monitoring services, makes it possible for people in rural areas who don't have a specialist near them to get the specialized care they need. It offers consultations in the comfort of their own homes and without the need to pay for travel expenses or childcare. For providers, virtual healthcare reduces overhead costs and allows them to work more flexibly and see more patients. ## The Importance of Working with an FDA-Registered Company  If you’re excited to tap into the above-mentioned trends in medical device manufacturing, it’s important to find a reputable and experienced contract manufacturer [versed in the latest technologies and production methods](https://www.sanbormedical.com/services/medical-device-manufacturers). It’s crucial to partner with an FDA-registered company that meets all FDA and ISO regulations and certifications and has experience in the medical device field, due to the complexities of the industry and the expertise needed. Some benefits you will enjoy when working with an FDA-registered company expert in the ins and outs of medical device manufacturing, like Sanbor Medical, include: - **A one-stop shop for your needs:** Working with several contractors can get confusing and overwhelming and take too much time. An all-inclusive provider gives you the advantage of working with the same team from point A to point Z, facilitating a streamlined process and easy communication that can provide a highly specialized and customized process to ensure your every need is met. This creates a more efficient and less costly experience that delivers improved quality and streamlined distribution to vendors and end-users. - **Smart manufacturing and minimized variability: **The expert engineers at Sanbor have specialized training and experience in the medical device field. Our team works exclusively in this field to minimize variability and produce quality products that meet all industry regulations. - **Communication and management are a breeze: **When you partner with an international manufacturing company with U.S.-based project management, there are no language barriers to worry about. Instead, you get to work with one point of contact through the whole process, eliminating the time it takes to manage multiple vendors and service providers. Plus, working with the same team allows them to get to know you and your products, needs, and desires for a fully personalized experience. If you run into any issues, you know exactly who to contact and how to contact them, rather than chasing down multiple vendors and suppliers. ## Sanbor Medical: Over 30 Years of Medical Device Contract Manufacturing Experience If you’re looking for a medical device contract manufacturer that is experienced in electromechanical and electrical production, Sanbor Medical can help.
