Development time has been significantly reduced, allowing for more <\/span>iterations<\/span> during the development phase<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n

At <\/span>Qufora<\/span><\/a>, they often say they work with an unresolved taboo.<\/span> The company<\/span> develops and sells <\/span>continence<\/span> aids such as <\/span>e.g.<\/span> urine bags, urinary catheters and <\/span>transanal<\/span> irrigation<\/span>, i.e., flushing the bowel with water to support bowel function. And it is precisely the latter that, through our AM Hybrid project, they have developed<\/span> using FIM.<\/span> <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Qufora<\/span> helps the approximately 10% of the population who <\/span>have problems with<\/span> bowel movements<\/span>-either being unable to hold them in or to pass them-<\/span> and who, as a result, experience li<\/span>m<\/span>itations in everyday life, both privately, at work and, for example, during <\/span>sports<\/span>, because they are afraid of accidents.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n

The case: Overview and context<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n

Product development with FIM technology. Qufora<\/span> is a product that introduces water into the colon via the anus, and the water stimulates the bowel so that stool is evacuated.<\/span> <\/span>In collaboration with <\/span>Krebs&Co<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Qufora<\/span> has further developed its cone system and the cone that is inserted into the rectum and transports the water onward. Today, <\/span>Qufora<\/span> sells cones to most European countries in a growing market<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n
