3.6 billion digital medical market, GPS, Johnson & Johnson, Lian Ying and other equipment giants strong layout

The horn of the global digital era has already blown, and the limelight is on the rise.

Digital technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, robotics, and VR/AR are affecting industries, from education and transportation to financial services and retail. According to authoritative statistics, by 2020, the value added of the global digital transformation industry will reach 10 trillion US dollars, 67% of the world's top 1000 enterprises, and 50% of China's top 1000 enterprises will regard digital transformation as the strategic core of the enterprise.

Compared with other industries, the digitization process of the medical industry is relatively slow, but it is catching up. The digitization of the medical industry in many developed countries in Europe and America has been well developed. With the advancement of science and technology and the needs of society, the digital revolution in China's medical field has quietly begun.

During the two sessions this year, Premier Li Keqiang repeatedly mentioned " digital medical care ." Ma Huateng, chairman of Tencent's board of directors, is also talking about digital medical care, and spent more than a billion dollars to invest in related companies. At the CMEF exhibition in recent years, the arterial network reporter also observed that thousands of medical device manufacturers are pushing medical digital products, which will actually help hospitals, doctors and patients in practical applications.

Based on this, the arterial network has sorted out the digital status and trends of the medical device industry .

According to Transparency Market Research, the global digital medical market has reached US$179.6 billion in 2016. According to the compound annual growth rate of 13.4%, this market will reach US$536.6 billion (about RMB3.6 trillion) by the end of 2025. In 2017, the digital medical market in North America reached $80.286 billion.

As a country with a large population, digital medical care has a huge market in China. According to the Boston Consulting report, the risk investment in China's digital medical market in 2014 was about 4.5 billion yuan. The investment fields include medical e-commerce, online communication services for doctors and patients, and disease management application software. In the future, China's digital medical market will also grow exponentially. It is estimated that by 2020, China's digital medical market will reach nearly 700 billion yuan.

Vigorously developing digital medical care is a key strategy of our country. Since the 18th National Congress, China's medical and health undertakings have achieved certain development, but the entire medical system still faces many challenges, such as relatively scarce medical and health resources, tight doctor-patient relationship, accelerated population aging, and increased chronic disease patients.

Digital medical care is one of the effective ways to alleviate these pressures. At the two national conferences, Ma Huateng pointed out that digital technology is promising in promoting balanced development, universal medical care and precision medical care . "Digital technologies such as mobile Internet, big data, cloud computing, Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence have effectively improved the informationization, networking, and intelligence of the health care industry."

The so-called digital medical treatment is a new type of modern medical treatment that applies modern computer technology and information technology to the whole medical process. It is the development direction and management goal of public medical care. Digital medical equipment and its applications are also reflected in various fields.

The digitization of medical care begins with the digitization of medical devices. Digital medical equipment is the most important basic equipment in the construction of medical service system and public health system. It is an important support for leading the development of medical diagnosis and treatment technology to early diagnosis, accurate diagnosis, minimally invasive treatment and precise treatment. It is also a new round of healthy economic development. Core engine.

Digital medical equipment means that the processes of data acquisition, processing, storage and transmission are based on computer technology, and the equipment can store, process and transmit the collected information by itself. Medical equipment working under computer software has gradually replaced conventional equipment into the mainstream of current clinical equipment, such as CT, MRI, color ultrasound, digital X-ray machine (DR) and other high-end high-value medical equipment that can transmit medical image information to doctors. .

Digital medical devices include high-end diagnostic equipment, therapeutic equipment, and home wearables. According to the Transparency Market Research report, the global digital medical device market is growing rapidly. Among them, the annual compound growth rate of therapeutic equipment has reached 15.6%. It is estimated that by 2025, the global therapeutic medical device market will reach US$20.83 billion, far higher than the US$590.8 million in 2016.

In terms of technological innovation, the global digital medical equipment industry is generally more active, and innovative products are constantly emerging. In recent years, the products have gradually become miniaturized, integrated, networked, intelligent, multi-source diagnostic information integration, minimally invasive, intervention, precision treatment integration and other development trends. The United States, Japan, and some European countries have long held a leading position in the technology and industry of digital medical devices.

Compared with developed countries, there is still a big gap between China's digital medical equipment, especially high-end digital medical equipment. The main performance is: some core components mainly rely on imports, the functional performance of the products can not effectively meet the clinical needs, the stability and reliability of the products still have gaps, and the recognition of domestic equipment by clinical medical institutions is insufficient.

However, in recent years, with the support of national policies and the help of capital, China has broken through a number of core technologies of digital medical equipment. For example, CT scanners independently researched and developed have broken the monopoly of foreign products in the Chinese market; MRI devices are in The domestic market has been successfully opened; the high-intensity clustered ultrasound tumor treatment equipment has reached the international leading level and is exported overseas.

In recent years, China's medical equipment industry's technology and industrial competitiveness has significantly improved, with an average growth rate of more than 20%. However, due to the lack of technological innovation capability, the combination of production, education and research is not tight, the innovation chain and industrial chain are incomplete, the policy measures are not matched, and the application environment is imperfect. China's medical equipment, especially high-end image diagnosis and large-scale treatment, etc. The technical competitiveness of digital diagnosis and treatment equipment is weak, high-end digital diagnosis and treatment equipment mainly relies on imports, and national health protection is subject to people.

In order to change the long-term monopoly of hospital high-end medical equipment by imported brands, since 2014, the relevant national ministries and commissions have encouraged dozens of policy documents supporting the development of medical device industry, giving industry from policy, capital, talents, technology and other aspects. Strong support, especially for the development of high-performance medical diagnosis and treatment products such as medical imaging equipment and in vitro diagnostic products, to promote the coordinated development of the upstream and downstream of the medical device industry chain.

Major policies related to digital medical devices in recent years

In 2015, the Ministry of Science and Technology, together with the Health and Family Planning Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the General Administration of Food and Drug Administration, and the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Health, jointly proposed a key research and development program for “Digital Diagnostic Equipment R&D”. Specialized in early diagnosis, precise diagnosis, minimally invasive treatment and precise treatment, focusing on ten major strategic products such as multimodal molecular imaging and large-scale radiotherapy equipment, to promote the digitalization, networking and intelligence of China's medical device industry. Development.

In 2016, the number of “Digital Diagnostic Equipment R&D” startup projects reached 70. On November 8, 2017, China Biotechnology Development Center announced three key special support programs such as “Digital Diagnostic Equipment R&D”, and several special projects were planned to receive 210 million yuan of central financial support. Among them, "Digital Diagnostic Equipment R&D" involves a total of 5 projects, and the central government plans to allocate 88.33 million yuan to support it.

On June 24, 2016, the General Office of the State Council issued guidance on promoting and standardizing the development of health care big data applications. The "Opinions" clearly pointed out that it is necessary to develop and promote digital health care medical equipment. Support the development of health-care related artificial intelligence technology, bio-three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, medical robots, large medical equipment, health and rehabilitation aids, wearable devices and related micro-sensors; accelerate the transformation of research and development results, improve digital medical equipment, IoT equipment, intelligent health products, TCM functional status detection and health care equipment production and manufacturing level, promote the health medical intelligent equipment industry upgrade.

On December 29, 2017, the State Food and Drug Administration issued and promulgated the “Guiding Principles for Mobile Medical Device Registration Technology Review”, which made overall requirements for the definition, type, judgment principle and registration application materials of mobile medical devices.

On April 28, 2018, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Opinions on Promoting the Development of "Internet + Medical Health"", encouraging medical and medical institutions in the upper body to provide remote consultation and remote ECG diagnosis to the grassroots level through technical means such as artificial intelligence. , remote imaging diagnosis and other services; encourage the use of wearable devices to obtain vital signs data, provide health monitoring and management for pregnant women; carry out mobile medical demonstration based on artificial intelligence technology, medical health smart devices, real-time personal health monitoring and evaluation, disease Early warning, chronic disease screening, and active intervention.

This series of favorable policies undoubtedly inserted the wings of domestic high-end digital medical devices.

On the one hand, medical institutions have a strong demand for the intelligentization of the whole process of medical treatment, and digital medical equipment is needed to help doctors complete their work. At the same time, the medical industry has a large amount of data accumulation and precipitation, but most of the current data are not effectively utilized and analyzed.

Although the electronicization of medical equipment has been developed for a long time, the data generated by many devices cannot be interconnected, and it is necessary for medical personnel to manually record and then organize them into electronic medical records, which affects the efficiency of the consultation work. According to a survey conducted by Gary and Mary West Health Institute in the United States, more than half of the nurses reported that they witnessed the occurrence of medical errors mainly because of the inability to connect medical devices.

Therefore, medical service providers have placed demands on the digitization, intelligence, and networking of medical devices. It is hoped that medical devices can add data transmission functions and integrate them into the EHR platform, which not only reduces medical errors, but also improves efficiency.

On the other hand, for medical device manufacturers, digital transformation is also necessary. In order to remain absolutely competitive in their respective markets, they are looking for ways to reshape themselves into digital healthcare companies. Due to growing healthcare needs, economic pressures to reduce healthcare costs, and fierce competition in the industry, the profitability of medical devices has been seriously threatened, forcing manufacturers to rethink their existing business models and through innovative products and solutions. The program creates value for the customer.

The concept of “digitalization of medical devices” covers the entire life cycle of medical device design, development, manufacturing, distribution and use. It also includes the interaction and integration of various technologies and data in the clinical and home use of medical device products.

Digital technology allows medical device companies to control costs, improve patient care, and provide data support for their business decisions. For example, digital technologies such as predictive analytics or patient monitoring in devices can help companies proactively identify quality issues and improve device performance. According to the FDA's 2003-2012 medical device recycling report, the number of medical device recalls increased by 97% during this period.

In addition to digitally upgrading medical devices from a product perspective, medical device companies are changing their business models from a process, service and stakeholder perspective, around providing a full range of digital solutions for healthcare organizations and hospitals.

They use digital technologies such as the Internet, big data, and artificial intelligence to combine advanced concepts and methods with industry characteristics and users to transform medical devices from “manufacturing” to “intelligence” in order to achieve digital transformation. Seeking breakthrough innovation.

Among these enterprises, the traditional foreign capital giants "GPS" (GM, Philips, Siemens) and "domestic Big Three" (Lian Ying, Mindray, Yu Yue) are the most prominent. In recent years, they have launched a number of digital medical products and solutions.

The arterial network has been found in the digital medical business of several core enterprises. At present, most of the digital medical treatments and applications are still in the initial stage. Their digital direction mainly includes digital upgrade of products, equipment asset management (remote monitoring, upgrade + maintenance), telemedicine , supply chain management, AI-assisted diagnosis, digital operating room/laboratory solutions, and so on.

GE Healthcare: Building a Digital Industrial Empire

GE started its digital transformation path both inside and outside as early as 2015, and now it is moving towards a “simple” but not easy goal: to become the world's largest digital industrial empire.

In an interview with Business Insider magazine, GE Healthcare CEO John Flannery made a very bold and interesting outlook: "In the near future, we may start to see medical devices such as MRI or X-ray machines as smart phones. In other words, the device itself is not as important as the mobile phone software. Think of the iPhone, its function is far more than just talking, texting and taking pictures. The essence is the combination of software and hardware, a series of high value-added functions. The medical business will do the same."

Digitalization is inseparable from the cooperation of software and hardware. After a long period of precipitation in the hardware field, GE has accumulated a strong reputation. Speaking that GE Healthcare is using new hardware every year, it will cost about $1 billion. Good hardware is a solid foundation for advancing digital.

GE Healthcare is one of the business units with the most mature software business. GE Healthcare has a team of 5,000-person software engineers, accounting for 10% of GE's total healthcare staff. By 2018, GE Healthcare will invest more than $500 million in software.

John Flannery believes that software and hardware are not an all-or-one relationship. Their combination can bring about qualitative changes. If an imaging device can monitor a patient's tumor and its rate of growth and change, and intelligently analyze the data and information, the doctor may bring a better medical diagnosis to the patient.

GE Digital Healthcare's positioning is based on assets, through the data collection and utilization of the entire industry chain, to help hospitals improve performance asset management, critical diagnosis and improvement of various capabilities.

To this end, the company launched the three major products of asset cloud housekeeper, cloud imaging solution and cloud ECG solution, focusing on asset operation management, patient clinical diagnosis, hospital capacity building, and concentrated on its self-innovation spirit and digital strategy.

Asset Cloud Manager: This is GE Healthcare's first digital project in China. It is the first cloud-based medical device management application developed by the GE China team. It monitors and calculates the equipment to make the remote connection help the device to be more efficient, thus helping the overall operation and maintenance of the hospital equipment to improve work efficiency.

With GE Healthcare's leading asset cloud steward platform, hospitals can realize real-time monitoring and dynamic information updates of devices; device warranty through WeChat platform, sorting tasks according to urgency, facilitating efficient staffing; and querying device usage in real time. Maintenance status, easy to coordinate adjustment, maximize resource utilization.

What's more worth mentioning is that based on the accumulated data on the system, asset cloud housekeepers can also conduct intelligent analysis and make forward-looking predictions on the use of equipment. In the past, hospitals waited until the equipment was broken, which seriously affected the normal operation of the hospital. Nowadays, with artificial intelligence and big data analysis, the hospital can prevent problems before they happen, better carry out maintenance and quality control work and budget. plan.

It is reported that since the first landing at the end of June last year, more than 100 hospitals across the country have launched the asset cloud steward platform, including not only large-scale top three hospitals but also secondary hospitals and primary hospitals. At present, the asset cloud steward platform manages more than 80,000 pieces of equipment, and the assets under management are as high as 8.8 billion yuan.

Cloud Imaging Solution: A patient-centric collaborative platform that coordinates medical resources across regions, institutions, specialists, and care pathways through advanced imaging workflows, advanced imaging diagnostic tools, intelligent reporting tools, and multi-dimensional Synergies to improve medical services.

GE's cloud imaging solution provides a new ability to coordinate diagnostic imaging and inspection equipment resources. It can view, process and share medical images in the cloud no matter where the doctor is, making it easier for other experts outside the hospital to read the film. Achieve multidisciplinary consultations while reducing duplication of examinations and improving diagnostic efficiency and accuracy.

Cloud ECG Solution: Cardiovascular disease is a major health challenge facing China at present, and prevention and treatment work cannot be delayed. In order to achieve the accuracy, intelligence and traceability of ECG data. The solution can realize the standardized collection of ECG data, the analysis and prediction of artificial intelligence technology and the remote diagnosis and treatment of the cloud by constructing a regional ECG network between the superior and the primary hospital, so that patients can enjoy the diagnosis of heart disease in the large top three hospitals. .

Asset Cloud Manager, Cloud Imaging Solutions and Cloud ECG Solutions are the three dimensions of GE Healthcare's digitalization. In addition, GE Healthcare also demonstrated 16 products at this year's CMEF covering CT, magnetic resonance, nuclear medicine, DXR, mobile C-arm, ultrasound, monitoring and digital applications and solutions.

Thus, digitalization has become part of GE Healthcare's genes. GE Healthcare said that in the future, the company will start more trials, such as developing a big data platform, promoting standardization of data collection and data interconnection, and digitizing it to the end.

Philips Medical: Digital Medical Equipment + After Sales Service

In 2018, Philips launched the slogan of artificial intelligence, demonstrating the integration of artificial intelligence technology into the four major specialist diseases in the center of stroke center, tumor, respiratory sleep, monitoring and maternal and child care.

For the first time, Philips has released a series of products and solutions with artificial intelligence technology application capabilities, including:

MR Ingenia 3.0T CX intelligent magnetic resonance, full digital magnetic resonance Prodiva 1.5T, X-ray equipment UNIQ 2.0 with Blue micro-dose technology, new Affiniti 30 high-definition universal ultrasound system with efficient intelligent "Smart Platform" A new generation of high-end dynamic flat gastrointestinal fluoroscopic system CombiDiagnost R90, new high-end floor-standing wireless DR DuraDiagnost F30 digital X-ray system, new intelligent ICU solution, customer-centric ward monitoring solution for patients with sleep apnea syndrome ( OSA) Dream Family Solutions, etc.

Among them, it is worth mentioning that the IQon Spectral, CT iPatient AI platform. The new Philips CT iPatient AI platform is a patient-centric intelligent scanning platform that achieves breakthroughs in the areas of intelligent engine, intelligent recognition and knowledge presentation.

The intelligent engine does not need to set the scanning conditions, only need to set the image requirements, all the scanning conditions intelligent engine can automatically match; intelligently identify the automatic anatomical part identification and positioning, supplement the automatic matching and linking of different sequences after scanning, and automatically identify abnormal physiological signals, etc. Function; a variety of learning modes in the knowledge deduction system with its own scanning platform, which can perform knowledge interpretation of the scanning process.

In fact, Philips' digital transformation is not only the digitization of products, but also the digitization of the entire medical equipment supply chain, such as remote upgrades and predictive maintenance of equipment.

Remote upgrades have always been a common feature in smartphones, but have only recently been adopted by medical device companies. Philips has begun to upgrade its new diagnostic machine remotely, just as Apple did for the iPhone. The product team automatically schedules and pushes software updates and maintains software revision records through the ERP system integration. This minimizes system downtime because updates can be performed in hours, up-to-date system software revisions are maintained to improve performance, compliance, and security, and reduce the travel and workload of internal field engineers.

Predictive maintenance means that service events are triggered by careful analysis of system data by data analysis algorithms, so they are triggered before any major problems occur. These predictive alerts indicate that critical system and/or environmental parameters are out of specification. Philips remotely diagnoses the problem and resolves the problem remotely where possible. Otherwise, a field service engineer will be dispatched for guidance and a single repair of the parts will be required. This helps proactively resolve system deviations and preempt faults, avoiding system downtime, customer outages, and associated costs.

It is reported that Philips can now remotely identify imaging system errors, diagnose the cause, then troubleshoot and implement repairs, helping multiple partner hospitals reduce downtime to 0.1%.

In the long run, Philips is redesigning its medical equipment supply chain to provide value-added services to healthcare organizations through digitalization.

Siemens Medical: Core Technology Layout Digital Medical Path

As the leading medical technology company in the industry, Siemens Medical has always regarded “realizing digital medical care” as one of the company's important value commitments. From the generation and collection of medical data to the aggregation of data for transparency, operational interoperability and knowledge sharing, the company also introduces artificial intelligence technology in the analysis and implementation process to further simplify user experience and change management support.

In May 2017, Siemens Medical launched the impact of teamplay like big data platform to improve the imaging diagnostic capabilities of doctors in primary hospitals, helping medical institutions to collect and analyze the massive data generated by imaging equipment quickly and efficiently, in order to optimize the operational efficiency and improvement of imaging equipment. Clinical and financial performance.

Through the cloud application, the use of hospital imaging equipment, patient waiting time, etc. can be monitored in real time, and the management efficiency of the radiology department can be improved. At the same time, the platform can also perform dose management, promptly reminding patients who exceed the radiation dose standard.

More importantly, due to the complicated adjustment of equipment parameters such as CT and MR, many doctors do not adjust the parameters and fail to make full use of the equipment. The role of Teamplay is to unify the scanning protocol, allowing experts to adjust the device to the optimal parameters for patients at the remote end, and improve the imaging diagnostic capabilities of county hospitals.

At the same time, it is also possible to realize the interaction between ordinary doctors and experts in its platform. For some complex diseases, it is possible to establish a communication platform with experienced doctors in tertiary hospitals through remote services to provide professional guidance and diagnosis advice for primary doctors in primary hospitals. .

In December 2017, Siemens Medical teamed up with China's Internet giant Tencent to sign a strategic cooperation memorandum on the “Artificial Intelligence Innovative Medical Platform”. The two parties will jointly promote medical big data and artificial intelligence in the field of medical diagnosis with the aim of “Health China 2030 Strategy”. The development and application of the medical institutions at all levels to improve the diagnostic level.

At this year's CMEF Spring Expo, Siemens Medical released more than 30 new products, digital medical is its main products, including 7T MAGNETOM Terra MRI, ARTIS pheno angiography system, SOMATOM Force CT scanner, ACUSON Oxana 2ABVS ultrasound, etc. .

Dai Ying, chief marketing officer of GE Healthcare Greater China, mentioned that by 2020, about 50 billion machines will be networked and everything will be scaled up to the industrial level. Bigger machines, bigger businesses, bigger problems, and bigger opportunities. By 2030, by increasing productivity, it will boost global GDP to $15 trillion.

Xue Min, chairman and CEO of Lian Ying, also said: "For the medical device industry, the biggest change brought by digital medical care is the digitization and networking of medical devices. Just like smartphones based on the Internet and big data have changed people's The same way of communication, mobile, and shopping, digital medical care will bring about tremendous changes in the medical model and the reshaping of the industrial value chain system."

The medical device industry will also face many challenges in the process of digital transformation, such as security issues, user experience, and return on investment. "The biggest challenge in the digital promotion process is not the technical means, but the change of business models and traditional usage methods and concepts," said Ge Xiaochao, GE's senior vice president and president and CEO of GE China.

For the traditional way of using and changing the concept, it is like people have never used a mobile phone. For the first time, using a mobile phone must have a habit change. “There are many processes in the same industry, which are process reengineering, which will promote new changes in usage habits. In the process of promoting digitalization, instead of putting digital solutions down, it is necessary to reengineer the process itself.”

However, despite the challenges, we are still optimistic about the digitalization of medical care, and we believe that the medical industry will become better and better.
