The report quoted an insider as saying that in response to market expansion, Niplow has set up training centers in four places, including Shanghai and Beijing, to train medical staff responsible for dialysis treatment. It is planned to expand the number of agents selling equipment to hospitals from the current 38 to about 100 in a few years.

The head of Niplow said that in China, dialysis treatment is spreading in large cities, but due to insufficient doctors and equipment in the inland areas, many patients cannot receive appropriate treatment. There are about 300,000 dialysis patients in Japan, so we think the number of potential patients in China is quite large. It is expected that dialysis patients will continue to increase at a rate of 10 to 15% per year.
