Small capsules "snoop" out of the big market
The reporter saw in the Department of Gastroenterology, Peking University Hospital that a patient with a digestive tract took a capsule-sized probe and then put on a special vest. The doctor only monitored the direction of the probe and the clarity of the receiving probe through an instrument. The picture, after about eight hours, the capsule endoscope traveled through the stomach, small intestine and rectum of the patient's entire digestive tract, and finally excreted. Through the acquired pictures, the doctor made a diagnosis at the first time, and the patient had a mucosal lesion in the small intestine, which was early, but the possibility of canceration of the disease was high.
The doctor told the reporter that it is impossible to find out the true condition of these patients in a timely and effective manner. It is impossible to use traditional gastroscope or barium meal. First, the patient should endure the foreign body sensation of the mouth and the resulting vomiting reaction, and the detection of barium meal. The rate is only 10%, many digestive diseases can not be diagnosed in time, more importantly, due to the limitations of traditional treatments, it is often difficult to reach the small intestines of 5 to 7 meters in length, so that small bowel disease has always become a clinical diagnosis of digestive diseases. Blind zone." This delays the early diagnosis and timely treatment of the disease, and even causes adverse consequences.
The device in front of the reporter has completely changed all of this. According to reports, its scientific name is called "capsule endoscope", which is a set of medical equipment with complete independent intellectual property rights in China. Wang Jinshan, chairman of the Chongqing Jinshan Technology Group, said that the current global incidence of digestive diseases has provided a huge market space for capsule endoscopy. At least 80 million people in China receive stomach every year. Intestinal disease examination, if 1% of people can accept capsule endoscopy calculation, there will be nearly 3 billion yuan of market capacity, and the prospects are extremely attractive.
It is reported that only Israel has developed similar products and produced supplies. Many developed countries such as the United States, Germany, and Japan are still investing heavily in research. According to relevant experts, the product is in real-time observation in synchronous image transmission, or in vitro control of in-vivo imaging speed and exposure, which makes it superior to imported similar products in terms of advancedness and practicability. And the inspection fee is only half of the imported equipment of the same type.
Prof. Wu Qiyao, a well-known expert in the medical device industry in China, clearly pointed out that Jinshan’s future high-tech development model clearly points out that on the one hand, it develops more digital medical projects around the main line of imaging medical devices to achieve vertical expansion; The main line develops more related products and achieves horizontal expansion. With the continuous improvement of the industrialization level of the "capsule endoscopy" project, such enterprises should move toward the realm of capital internationalization, talent specialization, technology humanization, product diversification and market globalization.
However, some experts have suggested that although the capsule endoscope has a broad market prospect, due to the high technology content, the cost of testing is difficult to reduce at one time, and most people still do not enjoy its convenience. Therefore, for the sake of more patients' interests, domestic enterprises still have a long way to go in terms of equipment innovation and improvement in the future. ——Shanghai Medical Device Industry Association
