We serve medical device professionals who understand that hands-on experience drives business results. Our clients span the industry spectrum:
- Established global leaders in the medical device market
- Emerging mid-sized companies scaling their clinical impact
- Innovative startups introducing breakthrough technologies
Most of the top 50 medical device manufacturers and many forward-thinking startups trust Pulse MDM as their strategic partner in creating meaningful clinical interactions with their technology.
We create clinically relevant custom medical models for a wide range of applications:
- Medical device physician education
- Surgical skills training
- Sales demonstration tools
- Direct-to-patient marketing
- Medical exhibit displays
- Internal sales training
- Pre-clinical validation testing
Our models range from complete anatomical systems to focused procedural models that highlight specific clinical challenges. We excel at creating models that showcase the unique benefits of medical devices—whether demonstrating catheter navigation through tortuous vessels, the precise deployment of implants, or the tissue-specific interaction of surgical instruments.
We’re experts in hands-on medical device interaction. Our difference lies in our strategic approach:
- We create business models, not just medical models. Our solutions are designed to drive adoption, build confidence, and generate revenue.
- We are 3D medical device marketers. We understand the unique challenges of communicating complex medical technology through tactile experience.
- We are a professional services firm composed of product designers and craftspeople who specialize in medical technology visualization.
With decades of experience custom-formulating squishy materials and bringing big medical ideas to life, we combine product design chops, sales acumen, and prototyping know-how. It’s toy-industry ingenuity meets anatomical insight, all in service of getting the “feel” just right. We’re part artist, part engineer, part medical matchmaker—connecting brilliant devices with the hands that need to trust them.
While technical precision matters, it’s the emotional, hands-on experiences that drive adoption. Our models deliver the right tissue resistance, the correct anatomical layout, and the tactile feedback clinicians need to build confidence in your device.
Most models are simple point-to models, some models show what your device does. A Pulse MD model shows why your product is better by replicating the exact clinical conditions your practitioners will face in the field.
Our collaborative process begins with a conversation about your product features, key differentiators, and the story you want to tell. We ask questions that tease out the must-haves and nice-to-haves for your project.
We then create concept sketches and co-develop refinements with your input. Once we agree on an approach, we develop a detailed proposal and timeline. Throughout development, we maintain open communication to ensure the final model delivers exactly the experience you need.
We scale our solutions to meet your needs and your budget. While our sweet spot for a development project fee is typically $25-75K, we’ve successfully delivered projects ranging up to $500K, always ensuring maximum impact regardless of scope. The development cost is non-recurring. Individual production models cost significantly less once development is complete: depending on quantity and complexity, they range from $50-5,000 each. Models made for doctor’s office patient education are always designed to be compliant with the Sunshine Act
Each client’s budget is an integral part of our design and production criteria. Sometimes, the challenge of meeting financial requirements pushes us to find the most inventive, unexpected solutions.
Concept sketches and the conversations around them are provided at no charge. Once we understand your criteria and agree on an approach, we create a detailed proposal.
Our models replicate the key tissue properties needed for an effective hands-on experience without the logistical challenges of labs. They’re portable, consistent, cost-effective, and available whenever and wherever you need them.
Unlike labs, which require specialized teams and environments, our models:
- Provide consistent, repeatable experiences
- Can be set up in a hotel conference room or a physician’s office
- Allow the training to travel to the clinician, eliminating the need to cover travel, meals, and extras, while minimizing time away from their practice (priceless!).
- Can be designed with replaceable parts, so each participant gets a fresh experience
- Travel easily as checked luggage and set up in minutes in any venue
- Have no cultural limitations across countries
- Provide significant cost savings through one-time development investment, eliminating the recurring expenses of laboratory sessions
- Guarantee you’ll have exactly the anatomy you need
- Pose no disposal hassles
Many organizations have strategic initiatives to reduce animal labs. Our models support these goals while enhancing training effectiveness.
Yes. The model created for your company is exclusively yours. We don’t sell your custom models to competitors or other organizations.
All designs, processes, and methods developed by Pulse MDM to meet client specifications are our intellectual property.
The easiest way to begin is with a conversation. Contact us at 267-753-0870 x1004 or through our form below. We’ll discuss your needs, answer any questions, and if appropriate, schedule an in-person meeting where we can share examples of relevant models we’ve created for other organizations.
There’s no commitment required for initial consultations, and we’re happy to sign NDAs when discussing proprietary technology or processes.
In addition to the portfolio on our website, we can visit your location with physical examples of models we’ve made for other organizations. Seeing and handling these models in person allows you to experience the tactile realism that drives adoption.
We’ve worked with over 220 medical device companies worldwide, created more than 400 different procedural models, and have over 45,000 models in the field today. Our experience spans virtually every medical specialty.
Because when clinicians can hold innovation in their hands, adoption isn’t just possible—it’s inevitable.
While most of our work involves custom-designed models for specific client needs, we do maintain a limited selection of stock models available for immediate purchase. These offer a cost-effective solution when standard anatomy is sufficient for your demonstration or training needs. Please contact us for current availability.
Device trial builds experience, experience builds confidence, and confidence drives adoption. Our models make that path frictionless, creating consistent, repeatable demonstrations that highlight your device’s key benefits anywhere: in a conference room, tradeshow booth, or clinician’s office.
We design each model to choreograph the interaction between your sales rep and the clinician. That ensures your message lands clearly, consistently, and with impact. Even an average trainer can deliver a superstar-level experience.
Rather than relying solely on relationships to drive adoption, our models create an environment where clinicians reach their own conclusions about your device’s superiority through hands-on proof they can feel.
