Case Study: TurnCare improves ICU patient safety with Speck Design's Guardian medical device redesign

Turncare redesigns Guardian System into a compact, lightweight medical device with Speck Design

Turncare, a medical device company, enlisted Speck Design to enhance the design of their Guardian System, a perfusion enhancement system for critical care patients. Their challenge was to update the system's controller to improve its usability and functionality while making it more compact and lightweight for use in fast-paced healthcare environments.

Speck Design implemented a comprehensive solution involving user research, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and industrial design. They integrated advanced features into a smaller form factor, crafted a lighter yet robust controller, and optimized its design for seamless integration into ICU workflows. Through this process, Speck Design helped Turncare create a more user-friendly and efficient device to support pressure injury prevention therapy for high-acuity patients.
