Healthcare Device Risk Heat Map Generator

Section 6 — Artifacts, Interactive Visuals & Claude Design

Healthcare Device Risk Heat Map Generator

An interactive 5×5 risk heat map for entering, scoring, and visualizing project or device risks by likelihood and impact.

Starter Prompt

Create an interactive risk heat map tool for healthcare device executives where users can enter risks, score them by likelihood and impact, and see a color-coded 5x5 heat map with a ranked risk list and recommended actions.

Expanded Prompt

Create a professional Claude Artifact called the Healthcare Device Risk Heat Map Generator.

Goal

Build an interactive risk assessment dashboard for executives and teams in the healthcare device industry. Users enter risks, score them, and the tool generates a visual heat map, a ranked risk register, recommended actions, and an executive summary.

Audience

Healthcare device executives, product leaders, quality and regulatory teams, engineering leaders, operations leaders, and risk and compliance stakeholders.

Risk Inputs

For each risk, collect:

  • Risk name
  • Risk category (see list below)
  • Short description
  • Likelihood score: 1 to 5
  • Impact score: 1 to 5
  • Risk owner
  • Current mitigation plan
  • Optional notes

Risk Categories

Patient safety, Product quality, Regulatory compliance, Cybersecurity, Supply chain, Manufacturing, Clinical validation, Data privacy, Software reliability, Market launch, Reputation, Financial impact

Scoring Logic

Risk Score = Likelihood × Impact
Score Range Risk Level
1–4 Low
5–9 Moderate
10–16 High
17–25 Critical

Heat Map

Render a 5×5 matrix:

  • X-axis: Impact (1 to 5)
  • Y-axis: Likelihood (1 to 5)
  • Plot each risk in the correct cell
  • Color code: Low = green, Moderate = yellow, High = orange, Critical = red

Display Requirements

1. Executive Summary

  • Total risks entered
  • Number of critical risks
  • Number of high risks
  • Top 3 risks requiring immediate attention

2. Risk Heat Map

  • Clear 5×5 matrix
  • Color-coded zones
  • Readable in a boardroom setting

3. Ranked Risk Register

  • Sorted highest to lowest score
  • Columns: Name, Category, Likelihood, Impact, Score, Level, Owner, Mitigation

4. Recommended Actions

  • Practical mitigation suggestions based on risk level
  • Highlight critical risks requiring executive attention

Preloaded Example Risks

Risk Name Category Likelihood Impact
Device firmware vulnerability Cybersecurity 4 5
Supplier delay for critical sensor Supply chain 3 4
Incomplete clinical validation evidence Clinical validation 3 5
Post-market adverse event trend Patient safety 2 5
Regulatory submission delay Regulatory compliance 4 4

Design Requirements

  • Premium, executive-friendly dashboard layout
  • Cards, tables, and color-coded badges
  • Clean section headings and polished typography
  • Suitable for a live boardroom workshop or strategy session
  • Avoid clutter — prioritize clarity and decision-making value

Tips for Refining

  • “Remove the healthcare-specific categories and make it generic for any project”
  • “Add a CSV export for the risk register”
  • “Add a trend view showing how risk scores changed over time”
  • “Add a print-friendly boardroom report view”
