In this episode, Etienne Nichols sits down with Staci Miller, a Human Factors and UX Strategist at GenUX, to demystify the role of human factors (HF) in the medical device regulatory pathway. Staci explains that many companies mistakenly treat HF as a "box-checking" exercise late in development, leading to costly submission delays or rejections when the FDA finds the documentation fails to tell a cohesive safety story.The conversation dives deep into the technical distinctions between a Use-Related Risk Analysis (URRA) and a User Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (uFMEA). Staci provides a framework for deciding which approach fits your product, emphasizing that while large conglomerates with post-market data may lean toward uFMEAs, startups and those with novel devices should prioritize the URRA to effectively map out user interactions without the crutch of existing market data.Finally, Staci addresses one of the most persistent myths in the industry: the idea that clinical trial data can replace human factors validation. She clarifies that while the two can overlap in specific, premeditated circumstances (such as complex implants like aortic valves), they serve entirely different masters—one focused on clinical efficacy and the other on the safety of the user interface across diverse environments.Key Timestamps04:12 – The common disconnect: Integrating Human Factors into ISO 14971 risk management.06:45 – URRA vs. uFMEA: How to choose based on your post-market data and predicate device status.10:30 – The "Definition of Done": Tracking the lifecycle of HF documentation from phase zero to market release.13:15 – System errors vs. Use errors: How to identify root causes during summative studies.18:50 – The "Clinical Trial Myth": Why efficacy data is not the same as usability validation.22:10 – Design Inputs vs. Design Outputs: The "Blueprint and the House" analogy for FDA submissions.25:40 – The impact of the "Use Environment": Testing for movement in ambulances and lighting in radiology suites.Quotes"The FDA doesn't put things out there just to have a good time... If they've made human factors a requirement and you're treating it as a 'suggestion,' you're giving yourself enough rope to hang yourself." - Staci Miller"People are obsessed with the product themselves—the design outputs. But the FDA wants to see the design inputs. They want to see the blueprints of how you built that house, not just the wallpaper." - Staci MillerTakeawaysPremeditation is Key: If you intend to use clinical trial data for HF validation, it must be planned in the protocol from the start; you cannot retroactively claim clinical data satisfies usability requirements.Map User Groups Early: Distinguish clearly between primary and secondary users. Bloating user sets without explaining how or why they engage with the device complicates your risk profile.Environment Matters: Documentation must account for the physical "10,000-foot view," including noise, lighting, and motion (e.g., an ambulance), as these are often where critical use errors occur.HF is Risk Management: Human factors should not live in a silo. It must align with the scales of harm (negligible to catastrophic) defined in ISO 14971 and work in tandem with Quality and Regulatory teams.ReferencesISO 14971: The global standard for the application of risk management to medical devices.FDA Human Factors Guidance: The primary document outlining expectations for usability testing and documentation.Etienne Nichols: LinkedIn ProfileMedTech 101: URRA vs. uFMEAThink of a uFMEA (User Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) like a car manufacturer looking at an old model to see why the brakes failed in the past—it relies on known data to fix specific parts.A URRA (Use-Related Risk Analysis) is like teaching someone to drive a brand-new type of vehicle (like a spaceship) for the first time. Since you don't have "crash data" yet, you have to carefully map out every single step the pilot takes and imagine every possible way they could push the wrong button in the heat of the moment.SponsorsGreenlight Guru: This episode is brought to you by Greenlight Guru, the only quality management platform designed specifically for the medical device industry.

Health Minister, Dr Aaron Motsoaledi, says studies have proven that the minimal levels of endocrine-disrupting chemicals found in sanitary pads and panty liners, does not cause clinical harm. The Minister was speaking at a joint media briefing to respond and clarify the implications of the findings of a research study on sanitary pads, published by the Department of Chemistry at the University of Free State in February. The study revealed that the EDC's found in some sanitary products could pose health risks for females in the long term. Sashin Naidoo reports...

On Episode 658 of The Knife Junkie Podcast, host Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco presents 15 of the best everyday defense blades — or EDD blades — available today.Unlike standard EDC knives, EDD blades are purpose-built for personal defense, with blade geometry, grip ergonomics, and sheath systems designed to enable fast, reliable deployment in real-world defensive situations. Bob covers 15 options that span the full range from affordable production knives to small-batch makers and custom-adjacent designs. Whether you carry a pocket fixed blade or a defensive folder, this episode gives you a strong shortlist to work from.Before getting into the main topic, Bob opens with a pocket check featuring the Microtech SOCOM Elite Auto, the JWK Timber Jack, the Hogtooth NoVA-2, and the Cold Steel Espada XL in ESK. Knife Life News covers four current stories: a new Ostap Hel design from Bestech, an upcoming Torbé/Civivi collaboration, a maritime-themed folder from GiantMouse, and a classic reproduction from TOPS Knives in partnership with another legendary American brand.The First Tool segment examines the Roman pugio—the compact dagger carried daily by Roman legionaries as a personal-defense backup—and how it connects directly to the philosophy behind modern EDD carry.Bob also highlights two additions to the State of the Collection: Jack Wolf Knives' Gunslinger Jack and Norman Tactical's Fighting Bowie.The main segment covers 15 EDD blades in detail, including the Fisher Blades Beckwith Covert, the Amtac Blades Northman, the Cold Steel Urban Edge, the TKell Agent 001, the AB Knives 302, the Regiment Blades Lo-Viz, the Gunfighter Customs Gunfighter, the TOPS Felony Stop, the Hogtooth Knives EDC Tanto, the Pinkerton Knives Matador, the Brock Blades Magni XL, the Gross Motor Gear Mamushi Mini, the AUX MFG Pocket Rocket, the Kramer Customs Voodoo, and the Savage Creature Defense Tools Masako Hachi. Bob explains what makes each blade stand out in the EDD category, covering carry methods, blade geometry, grip design, and real-world defensive applications.This episode is essential listening for anyone who takes everyday defensive carry seriously, from new to the EDD concept to experienced carriers looking to expand or refine their options. Bob brings years of study in martial arts and blade culture to this list, and every knife on it earns its spot for a reason.Find the list of all the knives shown in the show and links to the Knife Life news stories at https://theknifejunkie.com/658.Support the Knife Junkie channel with your next knife purchase.

"You've never seen me sober." For years, Justin built a respected name in the welding industry — sharp, disciplined, professional. But behind the scenes, there was something no one saw. In this raw and honest conversation, we talk about high-functioning alcohol use in the trades, what it looks like when success masks a problem, and the moment Justin realized he hadn't been truly clear-headed in nearly a decade. We cover: What high-functioning drinking really looks like The culture of alcohol in welding and blue-collar industries Productivity after quitting drinking Identity, reputation, and vulnerability Financial literacy and long-term career planning in the trades Why not hitting "rock bottom" can be the most dangerous place to live If you work in welding, fabrication, construction, or any skilled trade, this conversation may hit closer than you expect.

Our friend Jeffrey Damnit was in the news this week as he was in Mardi Gras and ran into an apparently inibreated Shia LaBeouf which did not turn out well for Mr, LeBeouf. This is a great time to revisit his appearance on the DMS in 2021Actor/Host/Creature of the Night Jeffrey Damnit and filmmaker "Zombie" Dave Reda joined Mark and Nicole for a horrifyingly hilarious showJeffrey grew up in Chicago, where he was conquering the goth/industrial club scene as an underage teen, which led to him performing in a local freak show and eventually to Hollywood where he studied at Second City and with his whisky soaked voice and effortless cool became the Master of Ceremonies everywhere from EDC to Vampire Balls. He also had amazing facial hair, which led him to a beard contest with unfortunate results and recently to feature in a Lil Nas X video.Jeffrey also appears in Dave's new horror short "As Good As Dead". Dave's journey took him from Northern California to Hollywood where he was an extra in "So I Married An Axe Murderer" (he actually dared to speak to Mike Myers) to performing sketch comedy and developing the show Click This! He also appeared in Erotic Confessions though he remained clothed and his new movie was filmed during the pandemic is now appearing in film festivals all over the world. He tells us why he is nicknamed Zombie and regales us about a visit he got from The Morbid Mariachi.

Recorded live at the Inspection Expo & Conference (IEC), this episode captures a powerful discussion on the future of welding inspection and the rapid integration of AI and automation into the field. Jason Becker hosts a live panel featuring Amanda Young, Vice President of McNDT Pipeline, Ltd., and Lee Pialet, President of Pioneer Steel Services, Inc.. The conversation explores how digital weld scanning systems, AI-driven defect recognition, and code cross-referencing software are reshaping the role of the Certified Welding Inspector (CWI). Topics include: • How AI interprets weld scan data • The reliability and limitations of automation in inspection • What skills remain irreplaceable • How inspectors can adapt without being replaced • The balance between craftsmanship and machine intelligence AI is moving fast. The real question isn't whether it's coming — it's how we prepare for it. If you're a CWI, welding engineer, fabricator, or industry decision-maker, this is a conversation you need to hear.
Double Tap - Ep 449 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Gideon Optics (Code: WLSISLIFE) Die Free Co. (Code: WLSISLIFE) Rost Martin (Code: WLSISLIFE) Flatline Fiber Co (Code: WLS15) Second Call Defense Otis Technology (Code: WELIKESHOOTING15) Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 New Public notes page. DEAR WLS Question from Duke of Crude from Texas Duke of Crude: Hey Fam, When you travel, do you have a different carry gun you take than your normal EDC? The hard case I need for my witness tanfoglio to fit is bigger than I want for my checked bag. There is a fair deal on a shield plus at a local pawn shop and i was thinking it would be good for when I travel for work. What thoughts do you have or am I just wasting money? I do have to travel to Houston, Memphis, and New Orleans quite a bit and would like to know of what options you might carry for this application. Also, is carrying a big bore revolver into meth country (44 spc/mag or 45 Long colt) better than a typical 9mm micro double stack or is this just boomer lore? Thanks for the great show! Duke Question from Matt A from FL Matt A Recently I attended a concert and had to go through a metal detector and scanner. It got me thinking about large crowd events and what if there was an active shooter situation and here I am unarmed with my family and unable to protect them. So, reference gun free zones or large crowd events; what is the crews thoughts about going to large crowd events/places that prohibit firearms or carrying in areas that do not have metal detectors or scanners and are considered gun free zones or do you just avoid these places all together? In listening I believe Jermey is the only one with small children. So, do you not go places like amusement parks or places that would have metal detectors or scanners or schools events? Thanks for the insight, Love the show!! Question from LagDemon from MN From LagDemon I want to get a mp5k, I'm leaning towards the ptr 9rs. is there a difference in recoil from the reciver sizes because the mp5k has a shorter reciver than the reverse stretch version? both have the same 4-5″ barrel Question from Zach from CA Listening to double tap 444. Nick brought up doing something similar to Roadkill but for guns. This is a great idea for the dangerous freedom YouTube channel. Because some of you have FFLs, could you not buy firearms across state lines? Fly or drive some where with a set budget in mind. Purchase your firearm(used or maybe from agents?), accessories, whatever kit you may need, tools, etc. and compete in local events. Would be awesome to see. Maybe same premise but with loner firearms and agency members if way out of budget. Just a thought, thanks Zach Question from Anonymous Coward from NC Question for the cast from talk number two text You were talking about suppressor cages on a previous episode and about how you could use a hub mount to potentially mount a suppressor cage what if it was like a free float Darryl free hand guard and attached to the hub mount just the way that a free hand, guard attaches barrel nut. We know that most cans have a specific size. Yes some smaller some larger, but it's gonna be somewhat universal in the shit in the diameter . What if you had the hub mount have a portion of it that could lock on the cage for the suppressor talk amongst yourselves talk to text sucks while driving #WLS. Question from Jeff from NH Hi, this is Jeff from NH. Is a red dot on top of an LPVO too tall? Putting a dot at a 45 degree is not an option as im not a boomer fudd. Personally i think top dots are the way but some others say it practically unusable.

In this episode, Etienne Nichols sits down with Edwin Lindsay, a seasoned MedTech operator and QARA leader, to discuss the systemic challenges facing the pediatric medical device market. Following a personal experience in a neonatal ward, Edwin highlights the stark reality that many pediatric treatments rely on adult devices adapted off-label, often leading to safety risks and clinical inefficiencies.The conversation delves into the "mismatch" of the pediatric market: these devices require the same rigorous regulatory and quality standards as adult products but offer significantly lower financial upside due to smaller patient populations. This creates a barrier for investors and manufacturers, leaving clinicians and nurses to "work miracles" with tools that aren't always fit for purpose.Despite these hurdles, Edwin shares an optimistic vision for the future. He discusses his initiative to build a collaborative network of experts—including regulatory consultants, testing houses, and grant writers—willing to provide pro-bono or at-cost support for pediatric startups. The goal is to create a streamlined regulatory roadmap that prioritizes patient safety without the prohibitive costs that currently stall innovation.Key Timestamps00:45 – The "Pediatric Gap": Why pediatric devices have adult-level requirements but lower ROI.03:12 – Personal Insight: Edwin's experience in the hospital and the "Guinness philosophy" of giving back.05:30 – The danger of adhesives and adapting adult materials for newborn skin.08:15 – Building a pediatric volunteer network: Testing houses and consultancies stepping up.11:40 – Regulatory Roadmaps: Navigating the age variability from premature infants to adolescents.14:50 – Off-label usage risks and the "mindset shift" required for manufacturers.18:25 – Micro-timestamp: The FDA's Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE) and P-Sub programs.21:10 – Real-world clinical friction: Alarm fatigue and sensor sensitivity in NICU settings.25:40 – The hidden costs: Manufacturing complexity, multiple SKUs, and low-volume production.Quotes"We need to give clinicians the correct tools to work their miracles. They don't want to use products off-label; they want devices actually designed for the children they are saving." - Edwin Lindsay"If you have a pediatric project, there is a community behind you. We are breaking down the barriers of risk and cost because these babies deserve a chance." - Edwin LindsayTakeawaysRegulatory Flexibility: Utilize specific FDA pathways like the Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE) and the Pediatric Submissions (P-Sub) program to gain early feedback and specialized guidance.Collaborative Cost-Sharing: Seek out "altruistic" partners; many testing houses and manufacturers are willing to work at-cost or under different financial models for pediatric-specific innovations.Design for Sensitivity: Pediatric innovation isn't just about miniaturizing adult tech—it requires solving unique issues like alarm fatigue and skin sensitivity (e.g., non-damaging adhesives).Workflow Integration: Engage the "head nurse" early in R&D to ensure the device fits into the high-stress environment of a pediatric ward without adding to clinical fatigue.ReferencesFDA HDE Program: A regulatory pathway for devices intended for diseases or conditions that affect small populations.Greenlight Guru: The industry-leading platform for QMS & EDC solutions, helping MedTech companies maintain...
#777 Live selling is no longer a gimmick — and for some brands, it's quietly becoming one of the most profitable growth channels out there! In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with returning guest John Roman, CEO of BattlBox (a $20M+ e-commerce brand for outdoor survival/EDC gear), to break down what's working right now for them: live selling. John shares the BattlBox origin story — including launching in 2015, riding the 2020 wave (and a Netflix series), selling the business, then buying it back in 2023 — before diving into how platforms like Whatnot are changing the game with auction-style shopping, community-driven features (boosts, raids), and high-intent buyers. You'll hear practical details on show formats, timing, hosting, profitability, and why John believes live shopping is still the “Wild West” with massive upside for brands willing to jump in early! What we discuss with John: + Live selling explained + BattlBox origin story + Selling, buying back the business + Whatnot vs other platforms + Auctions vs buy-it-now + Community boosts & raids + Show timing & frequency + Hosts and formats that convert + Profitability vs TikTok Shop + Early-mover advantage Thank you, John!

Welding productivity is one of the most misunderstood topics in the industry—and it's costing shops serious money. In this episode, Jason Becker sits down with Nate Bowman to break down the reality behind arc-on time, operator factor, deposition rate, and weld volume. Together, they explain why welders aren't "only welding 11 minutes an hour," how over-welding quietly drains profitability, and how small operational changes—like proper weld sizing or adding an extra grinder—can save thousands of dollars over time. This conversation isn't about blame. It's about data, efficiency, and building high-performance welding operations that benefit both welders and business owners.

In this episode of the Arc Junkies Podcast, Jason Becker sits down with Brian Huff, founder and CEO of Midwest Technical Institute and Delta Technical College. Brian shares his perspective on the growing skilled labor crisis, why the U.S. is facing a massive workforce shortage, and how removing shop class and technical education from K–12 schools created the situation we're in today. The conversation covers workforce demographics, infrastructure demand, energy production, AI-driven growth, and why construction and skilled trades remain recession-resistant careers with lifetime opportunity. Brian also explains how trade schools can rebuild the pipeline and why this problem must be treated as a national priority — not just an industry issue. This is a big-picture discussion about the future of skilled labor, education reform, and why the trades matter more now than ever.

Most preppers assume their fire-making capabilities are squared away—a lighter in the drawer, maybe a ferro rod tucked into a bag somewhere. But owning fire-starting tools and actually being able to create fire under pressure are two very different things. When temperatures drop, conditions turn wet, and your hands are shaking, the gap between "I have a fire kit" and "I can reliably make fire" becomes the difference between recovery and catastrophe. This episode challenges you to honestly assess whether your fire-making setup and skills would hold up when it actually matters. Todd breaks down the hierarchy of fire-starting tools and why the order matters, examines the critical preparation steps that most failed fire attempts skip entirely, and addresses the technique errors that plague even experienced outdoorsmen. Beyond the mechanics, this episode tackles fire kit philosophy—what actually belongs in a compact, reliable kit versus what just takes up space. From understanding why certain budget options consistently fail to knowing how to source dry material when everything around you is soaked, the discussion moves through the practical realities of fire-making that armchair preppers rarely consider. Fire-making isn't just a wilderness survival skill—it's foundational to emergency preparedness, self-reliance, and your EDC strategy. Whether you're building redundancy into your everyday carry or pressure-testing your current fire kit setup, this episode delivers the essential knowledge that separates those who think they're prepared from those who actually are. These are the skills that matter when the grid fails and modern conveniences disappear. Episode Page on EP.886 Of Interest Get One Preparedness Tip in Your Email Weekly!

In episode 85 of the I'M PEAKING Podcast, we're diving deep into the culture, chaos, and evolution of EDM. From 2016 throwbacks to today's festival madness, this episode covers everything, free shows gone wrong, festival safety, rising ticket prices, and whether PLUR is making a comeback. We kick things off by looking back at the 2016 EDM era (yes, Skrillex included
In this weeks episode, I sit down with Alex McNamara, a trades advocate, welder, rigger, and content creator who has become one of the loudest voices pushing for skilled trades education and tool literacy. Alex shares her unconventional path—from theater and set building to welding, rigging, and managing massive international live events, including work in Saudi Arabia. The conversation digs into why shop class disappeared, how that decision created today's skilled-labor shortage, and what individuals can do locally to help rebuild trades education. We also discuss women in the trades, workplace culture, confidence on the jobsite, the realities of PPE and workwear design, and why being yourself actually makes you better at your craft. This is an honest, funny, and deeply important conversation about identity, work ethic, and the future of skilled labor.
The Pure Report welcomes two key members of Pure's Technical specialist team, Principal Technologist Joey Clark and Field Solution Architect Drew Kessel (who covers Cyber Resilience). Our conversation begins with a look at their backgrounds, including their surprising common start in healthcare IT, and the value of professional development, like Pure's EBC speaker training. We quickly pivot to the successes Pure is seeing in the areas of file, object, and unstructured data, driven by innovative products like FlashBlade and FlashArray. The core of our discussion centers on why Pure is successfully tackling the toughest challenges in unstructured data, noting the significant shift to object storage for backup, which provides benefits like immutability via object lock. Joey and Drew highlight how Pure's unique approach—focusing on simplicity and eliminating "tech debt"—is resonating with customers and leading to major business breakthroughs. This success is made stronger by strategic partnerships with data protection leaders like Rubrik, Commvault, and Veeam, creating a connected ecosystem that delivers layered resilience against modern threats. Finally, we explores the powerful narrative of the Enterprise Data Cloud (EDC), with Fusion acting as the intelligent control plane. We discuss how Fusion is the vehicle for EDC, helping customers mitigate risk and human error through automation. This includes using presets to enforce protection policies (like SafeMode snapshots and replication) and delivering audit and compliance alerts when security settings are changed. Drew shares a powerful, real-life customer success story of an 8-hour recovery from a cyber event using Pure snapshots, emphasizing that cyber resilience is a unified team sport that requires both infrastructure and security teams to collaborate.
