13 June 2023

Johan Coosemans of Comate shares his view on our neurostimulation projects

In the ever-evolving landscape of innovation, Comate specializes in diverse sectors that shape the future. Today, we delve into one of our core areas of expertise; the field of neurostimulation within the healthcare market. Join us as we chat with Johan Coosemans, a valued member of the Comate team, who shares his insights on working on our view and approach on neurostimulation projects.

Comate: Neurostimulation is a rapidly evolving field within healthcare. Could you provide an understanding of what neurostimulation entails?

Neurostimulation is a groundbreaking field that has the potential to transform the lives of patients with neurological conditions. By applying electrical or electromagnetic impulses to specific areas of the nervous system, neurostimulation aims to modulate neural activity and enhance bodily functions. Through precise regulation of neural activity, neurostimulation offers patients new ways for improved quality of life.

Johan, could you tell us about Comate's involvement in neurostimulation projects?

Our commitment to neurostimulation projects comes from our drive to create life-changing solutions through the power of technology. We provide expertise in electrical current profiles, communication protocols, and charging methodologies. Our focus lies in designing the intricate electrical systems to ensure compliance with the stringent regulations in this field.

Can you provide us with an overview of the typical journey of a neurostimulation project?

When a client approaches us with high-level requirements for a neurostimulation project, we begin by translating those requirements into specific criteria for electronics, mechanics, and software. We conduct a thorough risk analysis to refine the requirements and establish a solid foundation. Simultaneously, we consider the legal regulations that govern neurostimulation devices.

In parallel, we conduct extensive research on the mechanical aspects and usability of the neurostimulation device. We then move into the integration phase, exploring manufacturing methods for consistent and controlled production. Complete traceability is maintained through meticulous documentation of the entire process.

Following the integration phase, rigorous verification tests are conducted to ensure adherence to the established requirements. Once the device meets the safety and efficacy criteria, it proceeds to clinical trials. Only after successful trials can the product be brought to market.

How does Comate ensure regulatory compliance in neurostimulation projects?

Regulatory compliance is of utmost importance in healthcare and neurostimulation devices. At Comate, we prioritize meeting the stringent industry standards. Drawing from our experience, we ensure adherence to the necessary regulatory requirements. Clients can trust that the products we develop undergo thorough verification and validation processes.

Can you tell us more about Comate's focus on the healthcare market and dedication to neurostimulation projects?

Comate recognizes the vast potential of the healthcare market and the transformative impact of innovations in this field. Neurostimulation presents exciting possibilities for addressing various medical conditions and improving overall well-being. Our expertise in neurostimulation allows us to contribute to the development of groundbreaking solutions, ensuring safety, efficacy, and compliance with regulatory standards.

Thank you, Johan, for sharing your valuable insights into the captivating world of neurostimulation projects. We’re excited to see which projects within this field will come on our path in the near future.
