About Aissah Kaba
I am a Human Factors Consultant focused on designing medical devices that are not only functional, but safe and intuitive. I bring an interdisciplinary background in translational research and medical device development, helping me connect user needs and clinical context to technical requirements. I supported both formative and summative usability studies for a range of medical devices, including home-use and surgical products. My work focused on identifying use-related risks, conducting root cause analyses, and translating findings into actionable design recommendations. I also contributed to the development of human factors documentation to support regulatory submissions.I aim to contribute to the development of medical devices that are driven by safety and usability, ensuring that user needs and real-world use remain the focus throughout development.
