Most rollators falter at the first kerb, but the Swedish-designed Veloped is a revolution in mobility. It’s engineered with a unique three-wheeled design that smoothly mounts obstacles up to 13 centimetres high. Whether it’s navigating forest trails, uneven pavements or snow-covered paths, this wheel system keeps the rollator stable, agile and surprisingly capable.
The patented climbing wheel works by distributing pressure across multiple contact points as it rolls, reducing jarring impacts and preventing sudden stops, allowing users to maintain their pace and posture.

Developed by academics at University College London (UCL), the WID-easy test is a breakthrough innovation for the early detection of womb cancer. The accurate, rapid and simple genetic test saves many from undergoing invasive surgery to determine the diagnosis.
It works by measuring chemical changes in DNA from your cervix and womb, indicating the presence or absence of cancer cells. The sample collection involves a quick, painless vaginal swab, which is analysed using a PCR test.
Every year in the UK, around 300,000 peri- and post-menopausal women experience abnormal uterine bleeding. They’re given an ultrasound scan to check for signs of cancer, which, if found, will trigger further testing, often involving highly invasive procedures, such as hysteroscopy and curettage.
Nine in ten patients referred for these procedures don’t have womb cancer, and WID-easy has been shown to detect the same number of patients with cancer as an ultrasound while reducing false positive results by nearly 90 per cent.
The WID-easy test is available for all peri- and post-menopausal patients over 45 years of age suffering from abnormal uterine bleeding. As the only test of its kind currently available in several locations across the UK, the WID-easy test is a game-changer.

The Global Medical Device Nomenclature (GMDN) is the leading global standard for naming, classifying and categorising medical devices. It’s vital for healthcare professionals, regulators and manufacturers, as it provides a common language to communicate and share information, enhancing patient care and fostering innovation.
The GMDN system is used by regulators in nearly 70 countries, including the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Brazil and more, with members in around 140 countries worldwide. It supports global harmonisation of regulatory requirements and is continually updated to reflect changes in the medical device landscape.
The GMDN Agency, a UK charity and non-profit organisation, maintains the GMDN Database. They employ expert term developers to create accurate descriptions for new products and technologies.
The full GMDN is available for free to regulators, healthcare providers and academic researchers, making it a critical component of the global regulatory infrastructure for medical devices.
