As well as, the consideration of different types of sources related to engineering and the world of design, especially, product design and systemic.
In it, different specialties were considered in the field of medicine, to know the magnitude of this condition under different approaches. In the first place and due to the complexity of the subject matter, the conception of a theoretical framework was necessary through the collection of useful information thrown out by the exploratory research of the related literature. The methodology used in the research has a theoretical and qualitative character in the descriptive and exploratory stages of knowledge extraction and conceptual modeling of the subject and a quantitative and experimental character in the stages of longitudinal application and analysis of the product system.
Therefore, it is proposed the conception of a multifactorial study scenario capable of contemplating the product as a multivariable system and, in addition, allowing to carry out the development approach and the achievement of all the necessary stages and phases that the concurrent design proposes up to the achievement of the final product. The purpose of this device is to address the functional pathophysiology of this condition by providing a functional-mechanical solution in the palliation of symptoms and, thereby, increase the quality of life of users, in addition to reducing the likelihood of suffering complications of greater severity.įor all these reasons, the main objective was to design an abdominal-intestinal assistance device to help reduce idiopathic functional constipation through the application of systemic methodology. The proposed case study is a therapeutic assistance device for helping reduction of idiopathic chronic or functional constipation. By means of the study of a case the development of the investigation on the implementation of such methodological frame is arranged, as much in the questions of abstract and conceptual nature as in the concrete ones and of detail, allowing this way the systematization of the processes of design. This thesis collects the research carried out on the modeling and design of a product from a holistic and integrating perspective -as it is the systemic- providing a sequenced work space that helps the designer to undertake the optimal development of the activity of the design, as far as the product is concerned. The absence of a generalized, structured and orderly method favors some possible deficiencies in the practice of the discipline of design such as the poor traceability between the initial requirements and the final attributes of the product, the lack of rigor in the design procedures, the disinformation in the decision-making or the omission of relevant aspects, especially in complex issues, such as the one presented here, constipation. However, traditionally these design methods are limited to proposals of techniques and analysis tools based, in many cases, on the experiences acquired by the personal praxis of the engineers or designers, or in contrast, of theoretical academic models of scarce practical application. The design methodology, especially the product design oriented, has been subject to a multitude of studies from different approaches in order to determine a coherent, global and systematic structuring of the design stages.
