"Like a lamp lighting up a room. "In terms of describing the help that ultrasound products bring to doctors' diagnosis and treatment, Dr. from the Spanish hospitalD**id Sapir gives the most poetic description.
With the improvement of diagnosis and treatment technology, the stethoscope that doctors used to carry with them to understand the patient's condition is gradually being replaced by ultrasound products at the level of peeking into the internal situation of the human body. dr.D**id Sapir said that unlike listening with a stethoscope, ultrasound can clearly and intuitively show the situation in the patient's body at once. "And now the ultrasound is getting smaller and smaller, and it can be carried around like a stethoscope. ”
dr.D**ID SAPIR uses Mindray's new wireless handheld ultrasound product, TE Air. This ultrasound product, which is only the size of an electric shaver, can provide the same quality image level as a large ultrasound instrument in square inches, upgrading the stethoscope in the doctor's hand to a "visual scope".
Starting with TE Air, Mindray has elevated the Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) system to a more portable dimension, allowing doctors to provide patients with professional-grade ultrasound examinations anytime, anywhereWhen linked to Mindray's TEX20 ultrasound system, TE Air can be used as an information input port for monitoring patients' real-time conditionsAfter connecting with "Rayying Cloud++", TE Air has become a bridge for emergency doctors to communicate remotely with doctors in other departments. Starting from the small ultrasound products at the front end, Mindray has brought a revolution to the old diagnosis and treatment ecology through technology and product innovation. From the clinical, patient, and innovative perspectives, this domestic medical device manufacturer is the core of the global market.
It's all clinical
For a long time, the public has been in awe of life-saving major surgeries that save patients' lives, but little attention has been paid to the value of preoperative surgery for a quick and accurate diagnosis of the disease.
The recently popular medical drama "Ask the Heart" in China shows such a scene: a patient suspected of having a cardiac aortic dissection needs to undergo surgery quickly, and according to the hospital process and the necessary conditions for surgery, the patient must spend half an hour for CT angiography. During this half-hour examination, the patient is very likely to die due to the rupture of the blood vessels. But if you don't get checked, the surgery is like being done in the dark.
With just half an hour of preoperative examination time, it is very likely that the death sentence will be pronounced on the patient. Although there is a difference between CT technology and ultrasound, both are necessary means for doctors to accurately judge the patient's condition and thus turn on the **. For patients who are always on the line of life and death, they either choose to be pushed into a special department to be examined by large-scale imaging equipment, which not only has radiation, but also may delay the first time;Either opt for a quick surgery and take the same risks. It's like a multiple-choice question that you can't do wrong.
Is there a way to circumvent the above difficult choices?Mindray gave TE Air.
TE Air is called wireless handheld ultrasound, and as the name suggests, it has the attributes of "wireless use" and "handheld use". This attribute directly changes the situation in the past where emergency patients had to go to a specialized department for large-scale imaging examinations, and greatly shortened the examination time. Doctors only need to put an electric shaver-sized TE Air in their pocket during the emergency department, and they can complete efficient and high-quality examinations of patients in various complex environments, and quickly determine the opening of the condition**.
Compared to complex large-scale ultrasound equipment, Mindray has also simplified the use of TE Air. With the tablet screen, the doctor can not only observe the ultrasound results clearly, but also operate it as easily as using an iPad.
With a little training or even direct hands-on, you can quickly learn how to use it, which is very friendly to first responders on the front line. Sometimes, while the patient is still in the ambulance, the accompanying emergency personnel can give a detailed ultrasound result with the help of TE Air. The relevant person in charge of Mindray Europe said. In the post-epidemic era, in the context of the large-scale resignation of medical staff in the European market, doctors who are physically and mentally exhausted also need easy-to-use ultrasound products to improve work efficiency.
In fact, TE Air is not the world's first handheld ultrasound product, but it is the highest-rated one. "Higher precision image and digital information collection, more efficient communication";"Turn it on and get the result in 5 minutes, it's crucial for me";"It has revolutionized diagnosis and treatment, and if we can make the right assessment and diagnosis, we can advance the right **" In the European market, where high-end medical products are abundant, TE Air has received praise from front-line doctors.
With more advanced technology and more advanced ability to understand clinical needs, Mindray has truly turned its products into an extension of doctors' hands and eyes based on its grasp of the pain points of the front-line diagnosis and treatment environment.
Dr. Roger Kadji, an emergency physician at Melun Central Hospital in France, said that they have integrated the TE Air and Mindray ultrasound systems into the hospital's cardiac surgery clinical practice and used them extensively in emergency departments. "It is incumbent upon doctors to be able to make diagnoses quickly, perform **, and alleviate patients' suffering, and Mindray has given us a better choice. ”
Convergence and listening
If the ultrasound instrument can accurately and clearly transmit the patient's condition to the doctor at a certain moment, will you ever think of connecting these "moments" to form a long-term monitoring report like making a cartoon to monitor the patient's physiological and pathological conditions?
While the delicate and practical TE Air is impressing the European medical market, Mindray is making such an attempt at fusion, and the TEX20 in the POCUS (Point-of-Care Ultrasound) sequence is the result of this attempt.
To put it simply, TEX20 organically "integrates" the data waveforms of monitors, ventilators and other data into the ultrasound image interface, displays dynamic changes on the same screen synchronously, realizes the synchronization and fusion of various types of equipment data in milliseconds, and various parameters can complement and guide each other to better manage and monitor the course of the disease.
This is also the first time in the world that ultrasound and monitoring equipment "work together" on the same screen, providing more accurate patient status monitoring, evaluation and alarm for clinical care. It is also of great clinical significance for the monitoring and integration of various physical indicators of patients in the process of difficult surgery. With the help of TEX20, doctors are able to assess the patient's condition more comprehensively and make the most correct surgical choice.
Behind the wireless connection and data exchange between multiple devices and workstations is the "X-Link" ecosystem created by Mindray. Based on the layout of Mindray's multi-product line, the company has launched multi-scenario solutions including hospital-wide, critical, perioperative, emergency, cardiology, and general care, which not only optimizes the patient's best process, but also directly improves the hospital's operational efficiency. As of September 30, 2023, the cumulative number of hospitals signed up for the "Ruizhilian" ecosystem has exceeded 600, of which more than 300 have been added in the first three quarters of 2023.
For this ecosystem of bedside instruments, the driving force of technological progress can only occupy a secondary position, and it is more critical to listen to the creativity and inspiration of frontline clinical doctors.
We have cooperated with all the medical device giants, but Mindray's feedback is the fastest and most positive. ”
In the second half of this year, Mindray partnered with H Pital Lariboisière, one of the world's leading hospitals in cranial surgery, to establish M-Elite, a global ultrasound training base.
Top hospitals tend to have a higher flow of patients, which also allows in-house physicians to participate in clinical practice more frequently and have greater expectations for cutting-edge products that improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment. In such an environment, doctors are more willing to come up with innovative ideas based on clinical needs to provide direction for ultrasound equipment innovationEnterprises are also willing to listen to the difficulties and pain points encountered by doctors in clinical practice, and quickly give feedback through product performance improvement and function iteration, so as to finally realize the mutual promotion and two-way development of products and clinics. It is reported that the cooperation between Mindray and Laboasher General Hospital is centered on the "ultrasound + monitoring" system, exploring the possibility of cutting-edge ultrasound products to help clinical practice on a larger scale.
Doctors at Labuasher General Hospital are more open and innovative than most hospitals. Mindray's products are always at the forefront of technology and applications, and sometimes users need to be given some time to digest. Through the ultrasound training base, we are bound to drive a new wave of ultrasound applications throughout Europe. The relevant person in charge of Mindray Europe said.
Innovate to the world and climb to the peak
High-level easy-to-use products, a deeply innovative and integrated ecosystem, and keen feedback from clinical voices are making hospitals and doctors in Europe increasingly inseparable from Mindray products. In addition to ultrasound products and the European market, Mindray is also breaking into the global market with products and services of the same quality.
In 2023, in the field of in vitro diagnostics, Mindray Medical will bring the industry-leading cardiac marker high-sensitivity troponin HS-CTNI to face the problem of cardiac troponin interference during monitoring. The high-sensitivity, high-precision, and high-specificity detection performance of HS-CTNI reduces the interference ratio from 3 to 1 per 10,000 of current products in the industry, and reduces the risk of incorrect patient monitoring results from 1-2 cases per week to 2-3 cases per year. This results in earlier detection of myocardial damage and less delay in diagnosis. In the field of medical imaging, Mindray's newly launched ultrasound system, Kunlun Resona A20, directly fills the gap in the market of domestic ultra-high-end ultrasound systems.
In July 2023, Mindray unveiled a new vision and initiative, "Project 2025". Develop more suitable solutions from the three aspects of basic education and training, cutting-edge technology exchange and medical research cooperation, and join hands with experts and scholars at home and abroad to further promote the development of the ultrasound medical industry.
The core of clinical, patient, and innovative development has also enabled Mindray's success in the European market to be replicated on a global scale.
In recent years, in the context of strong demand for medical shortcomings at home and abroad, Mindray has obtained a large number of orders, and its monitoring, testing, ultrasound products and overall solutions have entered more high-end hospitals, group hospitals and large chain laboratories, accelerating the breakthrough in the public market and high-end customer base in various countries.
Statistics show that in 2022, Mindray's medical monitors, anesthesia machines, ventilators, and blood cell products have ranked among the top three in the global market share. Mindray also covered 75 of the world's top 100 hospitals selected by Newsweek that year, truly competing with international first-tier medical device companies.
In the first half of 2023, the company has achieved key strategic customer development in Indonesia, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Spain, France, Poland, Romania, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Australia and other countries. A number of global or regional key hospitals, such as the Saltpeter Library Charity Hospital in France, the Gregorian Maranon University Hospital in Spain, and the SJD Barcelona Children's Hospital, have become supporters of Mindray's medical device products.
Innovate to the world and climb to the peakBehind the launch and breakthrough of a series of high-end medical device products is Mindray's care for life and insistence on innovation. The small ultrasound instrument also helps doctors accurately display the patient's lesion condition and clearly "scan" the core of Mindray's medical development.
