In his welcome speech, Liu Yu, executive vice president and chief commercial officer of Shanghai MicroPort MedBot (Group) Co., Ltd., thanked the leaders of Ruijin Hospital for their long-term support and trust in MicroPort® Robot Group. He said that Ruijin Hospital, as the "leader" in the field of micro-trauma in the country and one of the first hospitals to carry out robotic surgery, has always been at the forefront of domestic and even international operations. In the cooperation between the two parties, the hospital plays a very key role in the optimization and upgrading of Toumai® robot. With the training center and joint laboratory put into use, we will use a complete training system to carry out robotic surgery qualification training and certification as well as specialist training. Based in Shanghai, covering the country and radiating to the Asia-Pacific region, we will promote the innovation of clinical technology in minimally invasive surgery. , benefiting patients around the world. Later, Liu Yu invited Professor Zhao Ren, deputy director of Ruijin Hospital and director of the training center, to control the Toumai® endoscopic surgery robot to cut the ribbon for the training center to be put into operation.

 

Ruijin - Minimally Invasive® Surgical Robot Training Center and Joint Laboratory, led by Ruijin Hospital, with industrial support provided by Minimally Invasive® Robot Group, the two parties have jointly established an international joint experiment that integrates robotic surgery experience, practical training, research and development, and innovation. room. Based on Ruijin Hospital's leading robotic surgery skills and experience in the country and even the world, an international team of robotic surgery training instructors has been established, headed by Professor Zhao Ren, director of the training center. It is clinically oriented and integrates the characteristics of robotic surgery technology. In training and teaching Incorporate feedback, evaluation and innovative insights from mentors and trainees, and collaborate on product optimization iterations and new technology exploration and application experiments. This also marks that the industry-university-research strategic cooperation established by both parties has entered a new stage and opened a new chapter.

 

In the future, the training center and joint laboratory will rely on the influence of Ruijin Hospital and the professional capabilities of clinical instructors to jointly develop international surgical robot training courses with Ruijin characteristics, jointly polish and establish an international standardized surgical robot training course assessment standard system, and provide services for domestic and foreign students. Medical practitioners provide systematic and professional robotic surgery training, promote the popularization and application of robotic surgery technology, and bring safer and more accurate treatment options to patients.

 

Respond to the call

Promote high-quality development of the medical equipment industry

 

In August this year, Premier Li Qiang chaired an executive meeting of the State Council to review and adopt the "Action Plan for the High-Quality Development of the Medical Equipment Industry (2023-2025)". The meeting emphasized that the medical equipment industry is an important foundation for the health industry and is related to the overall situation of people's lives and health and high-quality development. Efforts should be made to improve the resilience and modernization level of the medical equipment industry and speed up the filling of shortcomings in my country's high-end medical equipment. We must attach great importance to the promotion and application of domestic medical equipment, improve relevant support policies, and promote the iterative upgrading of domestic medical equipment.

 

As one of the first hospitals in China to carry out robotic surgery, Ruijin Hospital has always attached great importance to the application of domestic medical equipment. Professor Ning Guang, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and president of Ruijin Hospital, said in his opening speech at the forum that the transformation of medical research is an important part of medical innovation and a top priority for the development of high-end medical devices. Ruijin Hospital has always attached great importance to cooperation with domestic medical companies and has taken the lead in applying domestically produced high-end medical equipment. The first commercial installation of Toumai® endoscopic surgical robot developed by MedBot® in Shanghai was in Ruijin Hospital.

 

This installation is a high recognition by Ruijin Hospital and the market for the technical strength and training service system of Toumai® robotic equipment. It is also one of the important milestones for domestic surgical robots with independent intellectual property rights to enter the world's top medical institutions from research and development to commercial transformation. It is of great significance to the development and popularization of domestic surgical robots. The two parties take this opportunity to work together to create a new ecosystem for the integration of medicine and engineering, innovation and development, which not only creates convenient conditions for hospital teaching and scientific research, but also provides inclusive and reliable new treatment options for patient diagnosis and treatment.

 

It is foreseeable that MicroPort® MedBot and Ruijin Hospital will continue to give full play to their advantages in the field of medical research and work closely together to transform research results into practical applications on the platform of Machinery Valley, improve medical service levels, and implement The "Action Plan for the High-Quality Development of the Medical Equipment Industry (2023-2025)" jointly promotes the high-quality development of the medical equipment industry and makes tangible contributions to the health of the people.

 

Dr. He Chao, President of MedBot®:

 

As a representative enterprise in the domestic surgical robot industry that deeply implements cross-collaboration between medicine and industry, MedBot® has always been committed to "providing a complete solution for robotic intelligent surgery that can extend and reshape life" as its mission, and has carried out cooperation with major domestic top hospitals. Innovative cooperation between industry, academia, and research uses innovative technologies such as 5G to serve clinical applications and national health strategies, and realize the value pursuit of medical enterprises to jointly serve patients and benefit mankind. The completion of this training center and joint laboratory not only marks the strategic cooperation between industry, academia and research established between Shanghai Ruijin Hospital and MedBot® entering a deeper level, but also provides a platform for MedBot® to join hands with more top medical institutions to carry out medical-industrial integration in the future. Innovation has set up a typical paradigm, promoted the innovation of clinical technology in minimally invasive surgery, promoted the high-quality development of high-end medical industries in Shanghai and even the country, "made the world no more difficult to perform surgeries", and brought good news to patients in China and around the world.
