Medical Device Software Development

We build medical device software for healthcare providers and medical device companies. The pillars of our work are compliance, innovation and reliability.  

Keeping healthcare about people 

From improving patient outcomes to streamlining operations, the impact of digital health technologies is profound and far-reaching. Innovations like robotics, artificial intelligence and telehealth attract significant investment and play a key role in advancing digital healthcare. As more hospitals and healthcare facilities pursue digital transformation, the global digital health market is expected to exceed $270 billion by 2028.

Intellias offers medical device software development services for healthcare providers and medical device companies. From safe and compliant medical systems and diagnostic tools to payment platforms and regulatory compliance strategies, we enable medical professionals to provide the best patient care and ensure the best possible outcomes.

Let’s talk

Our services

Our medical device software engineering teams deliver software for hospital systems, remote patient monitoring platforms, wearables, and other medical applications.

We create custom medical device software in compliance with the latest regulations to enable real-time monitoring and management of medical device software solutions, collect and analyze health data, and allow for integration with other peripheral smart devices within healthcare systems.

Embedded software for medical devices 

Embedded software enables medical devices to operate accurately and securely. We develop software for Class II and Class III medical devices, including wearable and implanted devices:

  • Class II devices – medium-risk medical devices, such as CT scanners, wearable glucose monitors, blood pressure monitors and wearable ECG sensors
  • Class III devices – high-risk medical devices, such as implantable nerve stimulators, cardiac ablation systems and neuromodulation therapy
Software as a medical device (SaMD) 

Our medical device software solutions assist medical professionals in carrying out critical tasks such as making diagnoses, planning treatment, viewing and recognizing images, and monitoring health conditions. SaMD solutions are not considered hardware medical devices.
Devices that can run SaMD solutions include:

  • Smartphones and tablets
  • PCs and laptops
  • Smartwatches and wearable fitness trackers
  • Smart TVs

Our capabilities 

Mobile apps

Medical device app development integrated with software for medical devices enables real-time monitoring, data analysis and individualized therapy modifications. Users can easily access vital signs, medication schedules and treatment progress, as well as communicate with practitioners in real time.

Cloud platform

Cloud-based platforms enable integration of large amounts of data from disparate sources so that medical practitioners can get meaningful insights into patients’ health. Such platforms can also detect device issues quickly and enable remote configuration when necessary.

Advanced analytics

Predictive analytics with data from connected devices allows for identification of patient trends and forecasting of illnesses with exceptional precision. Such analysis can recognize early-stage risks, allowing for prompt interventions to improve patient outcomes.

IoT-based medical device tracking

Integrating complex medical equipment and devices with IoT technology enables real-time monitoring of both device location and sanitation status. Additionally, the ability to perform remote maintenance allows technical teams to identify issues, perform upgrades, and carry out repairs from anywhere with greater efficiency.

Real-time monitoring

Integrating medical equipment software with remote patient monitoring systems enhances clinical decision-making with data-driven insights while enabling patients to easily access user-friendly interfaces and data visualizations.

Your questions answered

Medical device software is regulated by health authorities such as the FDA in the US, the EMA in Europe, and other national regulatory bodies. These agencies ensure that software complies with stringent standards for safety, effectiveness and security.

Our developers follow rigorous testing and software documentation procedures, including validation and verification, to ensure software performs as intended. This includes clinical trials, risk management assessments and continuous post-market surveillance to monitor real-world performance and safety.

Software as a medical device (SaMD) is standalone software intended for medical purposes (such as diagnostic or therapeutic). Software used in a medical device, on the other hand, is software embedded in or integral to a physical device, like software in a pacemaker or insulin pump.

Software updates for medical devices are carefully controlled and in many cases must go through regulatory review. Updates are typically released to fix bugs, enhance functionality or address safety issues. They must be thoroughly tested, documented and approved before deployment to ensure patient safety.
