Description

The project examines how small design interventions can noticeably ease demanding daily hospital routines. The result is an ergonomic holder system for 50 ml perfusor syringes that combines safety, clarity, and intuitive handling. Based on the analysis of real workflows, the holder supports the placement, pickup, and provision of syringes during medication preparation. As an unobtrusive support in the background, it helps to make work processes safer and more efficient.
