  • Fit with the existing clinical workflow
  • Ergonomics and the real time cost per use
  • Likely adoption by physicians, and the barriers to it

  • Review of roadmap decisions that carry clinical consequences

0405
FormatWritten report with a debrief. Timelines can follow a transaction process.

An independent clinical review of a technology or a company, for investors, funds, manufacturers and consulting firms.

  • Whether the clinical need is real, and who feels it
  • Clinical positioning against existing practice
  • Realistic adoption path, and who has to agree to it
  • Fit with clinical workflow, and the operational cost of that fit
  • Competitive landscape seen from clinical practice
  • Medical credibility of the team and of the claims made
  • Quality and defensibility of the clinical evidence
  • Clinical and regulatory risk
0505
FormatSingle sessions or a recurring board.

Participation in medical advisory boards, and the design and organization of new ones.

  • Participation as a clinical member
  • Definition of the questions a board should actually answer
  • Composition and recruitment of a panel of medical experts
  • Moderation, and a written record of what was decided

Nevraxia is building a network of medical experts across specialties, so that a board can be assembled around a specific question rather than around whoever is available.
