论构建大幅降低医患成本的全新医疗装备模式——微全医院系统

Micro Total Hospital System:A New Modality for Equipping Hospital to Significantly Lower the Medical Cost

当前,从全球范围看,发达国家与发展中国家之间在医疗卫生水平上的差距日益拉大;而在中国,城市与农村医疗资源分布则严重不平衡。深入剖析了上述严峻现实,提出了解决该困境的关键技术途径之一:集成现有的微/纳米生物医学技术,着力构建装备齐全、技术先进且成本低廉的微全医院系统。这种有别于传统医疗装备模式的全新医院系统的建立,将促成诊断、治疗及医护装备等的全面微型化及低价化,从而大幅降低医患成本,并催生出新的医疗服务体系。系统论述了微全医院系统的基本特征,剖析了实现新型医疗装备模式的技术手段,并提炼出了有待解决的一些关键问题。所倡导建立的低成本微全医院系统,可望引伸出用以迅速缩小各地域之间医疗卫生水平差距的下一代医学模式。与此同时,对微全医院系统装备技术的探索,将有可能促成一系列新的基础与应用研究的突破。

Currently, the gap in health care level between developed and developing eountries over the world is increasingly enlarged. In China, there exists a huge imhalanee for medical resources between city and countryside. Here, such serious situation was carefully interpreted. We proposed that one of the key technical strategies towards resolving such difficulty lies in integrating the latest micro/nano biomedical technologies and thus establishing Micro Total Hospital System （μ-THS） in the sense of being fully equipped, highly advanced however easily affordable. This new hospital system, which differs from traditional one, would signifieantly stimulate efforts towards entire miniaturization and economization in diagnostic, therapeutic and medicine equipments, and thus significantly lower the medical cost and catalyze new medical service system. The basic features of the μ-THS were comprehensively addressed and typical technical approaches to realize the corresponding medical equipping modality were suggested. Some key issues waiting for solving were summarized. The proposed low cost μ-THS may lead to new generation hospital capable of quickly shortening gaps in medical care quality among various global regions. Meanwhile, exploration into the micro total hospital equipping system would push forward a series of new breakthroughs in both fundamental as well as practical researches,
