"If the health of the Chinese people depends on the standards of foreigners, medical equipment and medicines, how can the health of the whole people talk about? Where does the comprehensive well-off society come from? In this sense, the upcoming meeting coincides with the time, Very necessary."
The remarks were made by Academician Chen Guoqiang, Dean of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. The meeting referred to the National Health and Health Science and Technology Innovation Work Conference to be held from October 13th to 14th.
On the eve of the National Day holiday, the National Health and Family Planning Commission, the Chinese Medical Association, and the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association jointly organized an expert symposium to discuss how scientific and technological innovation can better play a supporting and leading role in the construction of a healthy China.
Qin Huaijin, director of the Science and Education Department of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, couldn’t help but talk about two 95% dilemmas: 95% of patented drugs and 95% of medical equipment in China are monopolized by foreign companies, and this is what leads to expensive medical treatment. The important reason.
During the 'Twelfth Five-Year Plan' period, we spent a lot of effort to produce 24 first-class new drugs created internationally and domestically. It is very remarkable, but this is only a breakthrough.†Qin Huaijin said that comprehensively breaking foreign monopoly, medicine The task of technological innovation is very heavy.
Statistics show that in 2015, China's total pharmaceutical and medical device market was 1,377.5 billion yuan and 380 billion yuan respectively. How can such a large market be in the hands of foreign companies? Academician Gao Fu, deputy director of the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention, proposed that technological innovation should emphasize "creation", form a theory, lead the world, and not always stay in the stage of imitation.
Professor Fan Jia from Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University said that the purpose of innovation is to apply. There are many invention patents for clinicians in China, but the conversion rate is only 5%-10%. "For example, during the '11th Five-Year' and 'Twelfth Five-Year' period, there were many invention patents for major scientific and technological projects on major infectious diseases such as AIDS and viral hepatitis, and many new drugs, kits, etc., which have been invented, but Can be approved, there are not many until now. Everyone has done it for a long time, invented, transformed, and cooperated with the enterprise, but it is difficult to get approval." Fan Jia said that there are conceptual problems here, not because of foreign countries. If we don't, we won't give approval. If we don't straighten out the whole process from innovation concept, research and development, to approval, pricing, etc., it is difficult to achieve real application.
Dong Jiahong, dean of Beijing Tsinghua Chang Gung Hospital, suggested that more emphasis should be placed on clinical research and more emphasis should be placed on the role of clinicians in health care innovation. Academician Qiang Boqin of the Institute of Basic Science of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences further pointed out that clinicians should be clinically sound, not necessarily calling all clinicians to promote, everyone writing a thesis, not to push all clinical doctors into basic research.
This view was seconded by Zhu Zhaohui, chief physician of the Nuclear Medicine Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. He said that the innovation enthusiasm of clinicians has not been tapped now. More incentives and more scientific evaluation mechanisms should be adopted to allow clinicians to combine new ideas generated in the process of contacting patients with technical personnel. The truly innovative products transform our rich clinical medical resources into standard and standardized clinical research resources, and finally become the ability to serve the people.
