With advances in medicine, the development of medical devices will be more in line with human needs, the service of humanity. In the future, the medical device is not only innovative, but also is convenient, fast and efficient. Next, the best ten or future sales of medical devices for the inventory.

Implantable vascular stents

Coronary heart disease is recognized as a clinical profession extremely dangerous cardiovascular disease, the disease in the past basically no cure, patients can only be fatalistic, but the implanted stent late 1980s invention revolutionized coronary heart disease treatment modality. The first generation of stent use nickel titanium wire woven through its compression balloon implanted congested arteries, the blood vessels can be softened and restore blood flow.

The invention of new products to save countless people with coronary heart disease. Over the past 10 years, Western companies have developed and launched to prevent “restenosis” drug coating stent (second-generation stents), the use of special polymer materials “absorbable stent” (p. three generations of stents), as well as special support brain aneurysm and abdominal aneurysms and other vascular stent special support new products, greatly expand the clinical use of vascular stents.

The capsule endoscope

Endoscopy is the most widely used clinical community a medical instrument has a variety of different types of products, such as laparoscopy, laryngoscopy, bronchoscopy, hysteroscopy, endoscopy, colonoscopy, cystoscopy, etc. With the continuous development of laser and fiber optic technology, the endoscope can not only help doctors correctly diagnose the disease, and more importantly, attached thereto miniature surgical scissors enable physicians to smooth some of the surgical removal of lesions, such as the removal of the large intestine polyps. Speak up so as to avoid surgery and surgery to reduce the risk of infection.

In the late 1990s, Israeli scientists have invented a new kind of endoscope products clinically significant swallowable endoscope (also known as capsule endoscopy), which is similar to the volume of a large capsule shell resistant digestive transparent plastic, containing miniature cameras, when the patient swallow these capsules, capsules immediately started working condition within the patient’s digestive tract and filmed the capsule when excreted, the doctor will put the capsule endoscope photographs observation on the computer to clearly determine the extent of the lesion within the patient’s digestive tract, and draw the correct clinical conclusions.

Wearable Medical Devices

It can rise wearable medical devices, but in the last 10 years to do. The first wearable medical device products listed are: measurable human jogging / walking distance, and detect the heart rate, blood pressure and other vital data and monitoring of sleep at night watch, present such products have become one of the world’s best-selling products . In recent years, with the high sensitivity of the biosensor, Bluetooth technology and other new technologies.

Western manufacturers have developed a wearable, while measuring the ECG changes (preventing heart disease sudden death function) cardiac health monitoring vests, bras and other new medical devices, the oldest old (or child) anti-lost and monitoring of its location in electronic bracelet (elderly accident) fall reminded watches and other new products have been successively developed market. I believe such a high price is not a popular health of new medical devices will usher in a new wave of sales boom, and is expected to become one of the best-selling medical devices in the 21st century, its market growth space is very broad.

3D printing Yixie

3D printing technology is a new technology concept, it has broad application prospects in the industry. In recent years, foreign manufacturers have 3D printing technology successfully applied to a variety of tailor-made for the patient artificial organs and other new products. In September, the FDA approved a “compact multifunction printer dental equipment” Objet3.0DenthPrime market. The 3D printer for medical resin material can be tailored to include a dental patient crowns, bridges, dentures and other dental materials, including a variety of commonly used and can be done on the spot to pick up, thus saving the patient back and forth dentistry hospital time. In the future, may expand the use of 3D printer for patient customized artificial joints, spine and other implantable prostheses product, so the 3D printer in the medical device industry will have broad application space.

Needleless syringe

Syringe is listed more than a century old medical device product, by the conventional syringe needles, syringes and other member, but because of the presence of needle products, accident or medical staff and patient stabbed with a cross-infection and other shortcomings, it has become a drug injection types of dangerous operations. Foreign manufacturers in the past 30 years has developed and launched a variety of needle-free injector, but works using the needleless syringe are using the “high-pressure jet” principle, so that liquid is formed smaller streams, and instantly penetrate the skin into the subcutaneous tissue. Not long ago, MIT researchers have developed a “magnetic needle syringe injection type” new product, which uses a magnetic ultrasonic principle, so that liquid quickly injected into the skin, thereby greatly reducing the pain generated by liquid injection. The advent of the product, it will completely change the old needle-free injector defects, and injections are safe and efficient.

Surgical robot

“Surgical robot” working principle is to use robots to do some delicate surgery human can match. In 2000 the US FDA clearance to market the world’s first robotic surgical system up? Vinci surgical robot. It can do a variety of naked eye can not see the fine surgery. In fact, the surgical robot still by experienced doctors to operate. The system consists of advanced computers, amplify electronic display, a variety of complex three-dimensional parts manipulator and an endoscope or the like. Surgical robot has become one of the major hospitals in developed countries in Europe and America surgical equipment. Currently, the surgical robot on the market there are three different types: 1 Da Vinci surgical robot; 2.ZENUS surgical robot; 3.AESOP surgical robot. They can complete a variety of fine surgery.

Cochlear implant

“Deaf to hear,” the former would certainly be considered Arabian Nights fantasy, but in the 21st century, said fantasy has become a reality, mainly due to the advent of cochlear implant. Cochlear implant, also known as “bionic ear” by cochlear implant, sound vibration bridge, bone-anchored hearing aids, and other complex auditory brainstem implant electrode member. Cochlear implant may be used to correct conductive hearing loss, severe or moderate sensorineural hearing loss and mixed hearing loss and so many different types of hearing loss symptoms.

Now has a variety of domestic and foreign markets cochlear implant products, including electronic cochlea is divided into child and adult cochlear implant two types. The working mechanism of the two broadly similar, but slightly different. Artificial Ear expensive market, currently costs the United States to install a artificial ear is $ 45,000 to 12.5 million. Installation costs of artificial ear is more expensive than abroad.

γ- photon knife

Surgical resection of malignant tumors is the most widely used treatment for cancer in the world, but to remove the tumor by surgery, there are some drawbacks: such as excessive bleeding, wound healing and cancer tissue may remain after resection. If malignant tumors in the brain, surgery is extremely difficult (not careful may damage the brain). 1990s, foreign manufacturers pioneered the development of a tumor can be cured without surgery new surgical instruments γ- photon knife.

It uses advanced 3-dimensional positioning system, accurate positioning of the tumor, and then use γ- photon instantly kill cancer cells, resulting in the removal of the effect as similar to a scalpel. More importantly, the use of photon excision of malignant tumors do not bleed (tissue laser allows instantaneous blood clotting), surgical wound does not leave, it is very beneficial for the patient’s recovery. Currently γ- photon knife has been used to cut lung cancer, brain tumor deep (including hemangioma) and other complex procedures, its efficacy has been widely recognized by the international clinical community.

Intelligent prostheses

Just before prosthetic cosmetic sense, there is no actual physical function. MIT researchers pioneered the development of a limb stump can take advantage of the remaining weak bioelectrical activity of intelligent control prosthetic prosthetics new products. The intelligent prostheses can perform a variety of tasks, such as lifting a heavy weight on the ground, he picked up the glass on the table, and even picked up the knife and fork and so on.

This is also the last one of the global medical device industry’s most exciting major milestone achievement 30 years. The product has been FDA approved for marketing. Although there are still some drawbacks intelligent prosthetics, but it is the first step towards the development of medical device industry, the production of intelligent prosthesis, it has great historical significance. I believe the next few years, European and American manufacturers are expected to develop a more technologically advanced intelligent prosthetics new products.

Telemedicine System

Since the 1990s, it has become a digital electronic medical daily operations Europe and the United States and other countries clinical community, from electronic medical records to electronic prescriptions, etc. It has long been commonplace. And the use of a smart phone supporting Bluetooth technology, the patient at home can be wearable medical devices to monitor the ECG data and various other vital data at any time transfer to the doctor’s computer community, which facilitates the patient’s condition changes to make it right the doctor’s advice.

More importantly, a new electronic medical technology development is “Telemedicine technology” application. Through the computer network, even if living in very remote rural areas clinics, working conditions were extremely poor village doctor may also give technical guidance City Central Hospital medical experts through the telemedicine system, and face to face complex disease expert consultation, thereby save the patient’s life, and eliminating the need for them to travel long distances for medical treatment of pain.
