Medical devices is an important basic medical health system , the medical device industry is highly strategic, and drive growth , its strategic position by the countries in the world attention, has become an important indicator of a countrys level of technological progress and modernization of the national economy .
 
For a long time , Chinas medical equipment low level of industrial development , CT, MRI, PET / CT, ultrasound and other medium-sized high-performance , high-end medical equipment, medical materials and high- value , high- sik intervene body mainly rely on imports , imports of grassroots market in recent years proportion also rising . Imported medical devices products bring huge economic burden is caused by the growth of medical costs and patient unreasonable "difficult and expensive" is an important factor . In the critical period of intensifying competition in the industry and in-depth implementation of health care reform , and strengthen scientific and technological layout of this area, vital to effectively enhance the competitiveness and technological competitiveness of our industry in the field of medical devices .
 
"Twelve Five " since the field of medical devices included in the strategic focus of Chinas scientific and technological development , the ministry developed a " Medical Device Technology Industry Development Plan ( 2011-2015 ) " and established a medical device industry technology innovation strategic alliance , starting implementation of the " special focus on medical devices " , the country has set aside funds invested 1.2 billion yuan . Frontier " special focus on medical devices " around " grassroots upgrades , high-end breakthrough , cutting-edge innovation ," the three directions , highlighting the current construction of primary health care and health system urgently needed , our efforts to solve the high-end medical products mainly rely on imports of problems and looking forward to the future development of the industry to deploy direction , based on the top-level design focus on the layout of the 20 major strategic products, cutting-edge technology and research 10 10 grassroots application solutions .
 
After two years of research and development , driven by the Ministry of Science medical devices focused on science and technology projects , the major product of the field of medical devices continue to make breakthroughs in innovation -intensive emerging, made a series of "self- original" , " scratch " and "From low to high ," an important breakthrough , a group of digital, intelligent , innovative portable medical products applied to the primary health care sector , medical devices field of innovation endogenous dynamic , innovative activity was significantly enhanced in the field of medical devices practice " innovation-driven development," the first breakthrough , the localization of medical devices into the new situation of great development.
 
Currently , medical devices focused on science and technology projects to determine the " second five" strategic objective is the progressive realization . X -ray machine , ultrasound, biochemistry and other basic new " Big Three " all technology upgrades , MRI, ultrasound , CT, PET / CT and other high-end products successful localization . Localization of medical equipment is cheaper than the average acquisition cost of more than 30% of imported brands , providing important support for the universal configuration and upgrade medical institutions at all levels of the high-end medical imaging equipment for the smooth progress of health care reform provides logistical support .
 
In the process of promoting the organization and implementation of special focus in medical devices , the ministry on the basis of ideas and top-level design of the system , and constantly improve the organizational system, the work system , R & D system . Organization focused on promoting health research combines depth , fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the diverse main innovation ; the implementation of business-oriented , profit-driven to establish an effective mechanism to optimize resource allocation and task distribution ; focus, focus on the management of 20 demand prominent major strategic product management process . At present, the basic form of business-oriented , industry-university collaboration to promote health in all areas , each project , each significant product liability expert levels of responsibility , the organization promoting the full tracking and management mechanisms , specific implementation is progressing smoothly , stimulate innovation in energy, gathering innovative elements to create innovative team , improve the innovation chain, optimizing the environment for innovation , and many other early results , showing a good momentum of development.
