上海市卫生系统知识产权试点单位专利管理现况研究

Patents management of pilot institutions in intellectual property in Shanghai health system

目的调查上海市卫生系统知识产权试点单位专利管理现况及存在的问题,为及时调整专利管理政策提出参考依据。方法采用定量研究的方法,抽取上海市卫生系统17家知识产权试点单位和3家非试点单位的57名专利管理人员(试点组48名,非试点组9名)和科研人员287名(试点组244名,非试点组43名)进行问卷调查。调查内容包括被调查者的基本情况、专利培训与管理、专利知识、专利信息利用、专利转让及专利实施情况。结果专利管理人员工作范围以专利申请为主(73.7%),试点组在学历、职称、专业背景、资质等方面都明显优于非试点组;试点组和非试点组在参加培训的人数上均存在显著差异(P<0.05)。试点组专利管理人员最希望获得的培训是"专利评估",试点组和非试点组科研人员最希望获得的培训均是"专利申请"。专利管理人员的专利知识得分率为52.4%,科研人员为32.3%。41.5%的科研人员不知道国外专利数据库;73.7%的专利理人员和67.6%的科研人员希望政府针对医疗机构发展提供可行性的专利工作指导方案;68.4%的专利管理人员和65.5%的科研人员在专利转让时需要提供专利价值评估方面的帮助。结论建议加强培训宣传,完善体系与机制建设,加快知识产权和医学的复合型人才培养,提高专利数量与质量,建立医药转化平台。

Objective To explore status and problems of patents management of pilot institutions in intellectual property in Shanghai health system, and to make suggestion on policy adjustment. Methods The quantitative analysis was performed. The questionnaire for 57 patent administrative staff and 287 research investigators were applied in all 20 institutions. The institutions included 17 pilot institutions in intellectual property （pilot group） and 3 normal institutions （non-pilot group）. The questionnaire consisted of basic information of subjects, patents training and management, patents knowledge, patents information utilizing, transfer of patents, and implement of patents. Results The responsibilities of administrative staff were mainly focused on patent application （73.7%）. Compared to non-pilot group, the administrative staff from pilot group had better academic degree, professional title, education background, and qualification. There was significant difference of number of attending training of patent knowledge between pilot group and non-pilot group （P 〈 0.05）. The training which mostly wanted for administrative staff in pilot group was ＂patent evaluation＂; and for research investigators in both groups was ＂patent application＂. The scoring rate of the exam for basic patent knowledge were 52.4% in administrative staff and 32.3% in research investigators. There were 41.5% research investigators never knew foreign patent data base. There were 73.7% of administrative staff and 67.6% of research investigators asked for government guidelines which should be specific for the patent management in health care system; and 68.4% of administrative staff and 65.5% of research investigators needed the assistance of patent evaluation during the transfer of patents. Conclusion The government should strengthen the awareness and training; improve the system and mechanism of patent management; accelerate the education for versatile professionals with knowledge of intellectual property and medicine; increase production and quality of patents; and establish the platform for transfer of medical and pharmaceutical patents.
