The innovation ability of medical equipment enterprises and the weak transformation of achievements

At present, the key components rely on import The products in the medical device market, such as CT, MRI and other imaging products, are basically from the United States, Japan and a few developed countries Medical devices such as nuclear magnetic resonance are mainly imported, while domestic devices are concentrated in the middle and low-end fields However, as the world's leading medical device industry has only started for more than 10 years, China is very hopeful to approach and catch up with the international advanced level China's medical device industry has few investment in R & D, low level of innovation and few core technologies At present, the proportion of R & D investment in China's overall pharmaceutical industry in sales revenue is 1% - 2% (3% for medical devices), while the average level in foreign countries is 15% - 18%, and the proportion of medical devices is more than 15% The serious shortage of investment makes our country lag behind in the research and development of innovative medical devices According to statistics, the output value of 40 large medical device enterprises of Zui in the United States accounts for 20% of the global medical device output value, while the output value of Chinese medical device enterprises only accounts for about 5% of the global medical device industry Shen Chenyang, director of equipment department of Peking University People's Hospital, also said in an interview that the large-scale medical equipment of Peking University Hospital is indeed mainly imported, while the high-value consumables are imported and made in China In more than 300 types, 2 / 3 of them are imported consumables, because the imported large-scale equipment is indeed better in terms of detection clarity and operation convenience The industry as a whole is in a small and scattered state The hospital does not completely exclude domestic equipment Among the low-end equipment, there are many domestic products with excellent quality, which can completely match the imported products But we have to admit that the quality of products produced by some small manufacturers is not good They once participated in the review of the registration certificate of domestic blood pipeline held by a drug regulatory department, "the appearance of the product is rough, so for the moment, regardless of its compression resistance and corrosion resistance, it's not safe to look at it, how dare it be produced and sold?" At present, China's medical device industry as a whole presents a small and scattered state, especially in the field of low-end medical devices Due to the low threshold, dozens of people can "save" a small factory for production In 2012, the total market output value of medical device industry was 170 billion yuan, and the average output value of each enterprise was less than 12 million yuan The strength of enterprises is also generally weak, in the medical device retail market, there is not a listed enterprise As of the end of 2012, data showed that none of the Chinese medical device companies had been ranked in the top 40 in the world Domestic enterprises fight for the small profits in the low-end market, while foreign enterprises dominate in the middle field Chen Hongyan, Secretary General of the medical equipment branch of China Medical Materials Association, believes that if the access standard of the medical equipment industry cannot be improved, the vicious competition of reducing cost and comparing low price cannot be contained in the field of low-end products Not only the product quality is difficult to guarantee, but also the healthy development of the whole industry will be damaged
