Abstract
AbstractThis contribution aims to describe how the convergence of digital design and medical design can lead to the realization of innovative design solutions, which improve the relationship between science and society and in particular between medicine and society, especially concerning the design of artifacts that can empower healthcare and wellbeing for society.The analysis of the scientific literature and the state of the art of reference, highlights the increasing use of digital, new technologies and innovative tools, in the field of medical and health design, in particular for the realization of goods and services capable of increasing the diffusion of health and well-being in society. Nevertheless, it is not possible to avoid reflections on contemporary issues, such as environmental sustainability and equal access to care and treatment, which make improving the quality of life accessible and widespread. These themes will be addressed through the description of a design and production approach, developed within the framework of an Industrial Characterization Ph.D. in Environment, Design, and Innovation, which, thanks to the use of the new technologies and tools of digital design, parametric design, and additive manufacturing, has dealt with the design of therapeutic and rehabilitation devices, customized to specific needs.KeywordsDigital medical designNew technologies and approachesHealth care systems
