Linking device features to patient outcomes

Medical device companies need real-world evidence to understand how design choices affect safety and patient outcomes. Yet traditional data sources—registries, claims, or small studies—rarely provide the scale, timeliness, or device-level detail required for meaningful evaluation.

This case study highlights how Medical Components, Inc. (Medcomp) used Truveta Data to evaluate infection risks and usage trends across hemodialysis catheter designs. By analyzing patient outcomes across multiple health systems and brands, Medcomp identified meaningful differences in device performance and demographic risk that will inform product development and safety surveillance.
