Attractive from wearable to implantable smart healthcare

The development of wearable and portable medical electronic products has brought new development opportunities to both machine manufacturers and local semiconductor component manufacturers.

Dr. Huang Chengjun, researcher at the Institute of Microelectronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, said: "At present, wearable, portable medical equipment is posing a major challenge to the medical industry ; in the future, diagnostics, monitoring, treatment, drug delivery and other aspects may be fully intelligent. He believes that there are many kinds of wearable medical devices on the market, such as smart watches and smart bracelets for heart rate ECG and sleep monitoring, wireless headphones that can monitor brain waves to help people relax, precision measurement and automatic A blood glucose meter that records and uploads health data, an electrocardiograph that monitors ECG 24 hours a day, a smart ECG T-shirt with an ECG sensor and automatically generates an ECG report.

“These wearable devices with different styles and prices attract a lot of attention from many manufacturers and the investment community. However, on the other hand, the core functions of such devices are often similar, and the user is not sticky enough to insist on using it, 'smart' The 'fashion' and 'consumption' attributes are more than enough, and the 'medical' attribute is insufficient, which can't solve the user's 'just need' problem, which is a common problem faced by wearable medical equipment." Huang Chengjun said, "On the other hand, with instant detection. (POCT, Point of Care Testing), also known as portable medical technology represented by bedside rapid detection, is an important development direction and the fastest growing field in the in vitro diagnostic industry in recent years. In 2012, the global POCT market was about 10 billion. The US dollar, and maintains 8% of the growth rate, mainly including blood sugar, blood gas, electrolytes, heart markers, etc.. He believes that compared with wearable medical equipment, POCT technology has formed a mature industry. It is characterized by "medical" attributes that can "accurately" complete patient disease monitoring or health care tasks; however, most of them are based on dry chemical methods, immunoassays, etc., and are not considered "portable medical electronic devices". It is not a "smart device." At present, the more mature portable medical electronic products are mainly sphygmomanometers and blood glucose meters, and the integration with information technology has been initially realized. For example, there are several blood glucose meter products that integrate wireless communication and cloud computing capabilities.

From the perspective of the entire industry, Huang Chengjun said that in 2015, new concepts such as wearable medical care, portable medical care, and Internet medical care accelerated in the capital market, and market competition intensified. Apple, Google, and Samsung each launched their own smart health platforms. In the domestic "BAT" Big Three, Alibaba entered the 21st century at the beginning of the year, and launched Alipay "Future Hospital"; Tengxin launched the "full process visit platform" on WeChat platform, and invested in the clove garden; Baidu company Also launched the "Beijing Health Cloud" platform. At the same time, there are numerous start-ups, the Nuggets wearable medical equipment and services market. “The market scale continues to grow, and the industry chain continues to expand. The formation of wearable medical devices, portable medical devices, online medical services, integrated mobile medical service providers, medical device manufacturers, IT giants, venture capital, and mobile operations have taken shape. The industrial chain of many participants, such as business, application developers, and data companies, will further develop in the future.” But he also pointed out that the current market still faces many problems, such as “not enough technology maturity, lack of industry standards, industry regulation. The lack of position, the difficulty of the business model 'landing', etc., the survival of most wearable medical and portable medical start-ups depends mainly on financing."

Therefore, based on China's national conditions and medical rigid demand, the market potential of wearable medical and portable medical services is huge, but technically speaking, it is now said that the outbreak of wearable "medical" or portable medical equipment has arrived. Fashion is early.
