Taiwan’s Healthcare Industry – Current State and Development Potential
Sustained Growth of Taiwan’s US$3 Billion Medical Equipment Industry
IEK Consulting estimates that in 2017 the output value for Taiwanese medical equipment was about US$3.4 billion and will have reached US$3.8 billion by 2019. The aging of society has resulted in an increased demand for assistive devices and bone implants, which, along with increased orders for blood sugar meters, test strips, and contact lenses, will be major drivers of output value growth. Taiwan has three opportunities for developing smart healthcare:
  • A complete and comprehensive electronic industry supply chain and medical system.
  • National Health Insurance data accumulated over 24 years can be applied in AI medicine development.
  • Proprietors and hospitals can collaborate to export solutions overseas.
State of Healthcare Industry Exports in Taiwan as of 2018
“Taiwan is extremely well suited for digital healthcare. Its medical environment has a high cost-to-performance ratio. Such areas as digitization and automation rely greatly on machinery integration and automated production, which dovetail with Taiwan’s IT and semi-conductors industries.”
- Michel Chu, General Partner, Acorn Campus Taiwan
“Biomedical Industry Innovation and Promotion Program” Accelerates Biomedical Development
Global Healthcare Industry Trends
Since artificial intelligence became a hot topic around 2017, cognitive technology and IoT applications have become a key focus of the global biomedical industry and the investment community. Due to population aging in recent years, demand for medical treatment is on the rise, and new technologies and products have ushered in an era of growth in the global pharmaceutical and medical equipment markets. (In 2017 the total value of the medical equipment market was US$402.8 billion, and it is expected to increase to US$521.9 billion by 2022.)

As medical IT devices are becoming more commonly used in hospitals these days, additional IT resources are required to manage the devices which can include installing and maintaining software, managing a large inventory of devices, and other IT related duties. In an effort to reduce the manpower needed to manage a large number of network connected medical IT devices, ORION can provide a complete set of hardware and battery information for any connected Onyx device, supplying important feedback to hospital IT staff if any problem should occur. It can also show which wireless access point a device is connecting to, which can help identify and locate the device. ORION’s Event Manager can be used for preventive maintenance, sending IT staff important service reminders from each and every device at a cost of zero extra loading for staff.
B6 Connect BluetoothR blood pressure monitor with stroke risk detection enables to detect Atrial Fibrillation (AF) during blood pressure measurement at home. Microlife AFIB is the only FDA and MDD cleared technology for Atrial Fibrillation (AF) screening in oscillometric BPM, it has already been successfully clinically tested on more than 10'000 patients. The accuracy of blood pressure evaluation has been clinically validated for all types of special patient groups such as pregnant women, diabetics, patients in end-stage renal disease or obese people and children from the age of 12 years. In addition to the LED traffic light for blood pressure classification at the edge of the display, an arrow shows after each measurement, if the most recent measurement is above or below the average of previous blood pressure measurements. All readings can be fully analyzed on the smartphone using the Microlife Connected Health app or on the PC using the BP Analyzer software.
AmCAD-UO is an innovative solution to assist physicians evaluating the risk of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) syndrome. The solution consists of a positioning system and a computer-assisted detection (CAD) software device. The positioning system helps accurately locate the ultrasound probe to scan and acquire multiple-angle sonographic images of the upper airway. The computer-assisted detection software device is to automatically detect the airspace of the pharyngeal airway. The dynamic changes of the airspace are then computed to evaluate the risk of OSA. The evaluation process is performed on awake patients and takes no more than 10 minutes to get the results. The entire process is objective, accurate, cost-effective and safe and is expected to transform the clinical practice of OSA diagnosis.

The core of MonoStereo is to convert 2D endoscope image into 3D image, which is compatible with 2D endoscope systems on the market to reduce the cost of hardware upgrade.. The MonoStereo includes adjustment settings for stereoscopic parameters. The adjustment of the stereo parameters is divided into five stages for allowing the surgeons to perform the surgery in the most comfortable state. IRCAD France research team led by Professor Marescaux had collected 60 surgeons using MonoStereo and existing 2D endoscopy systems for comparison and found MonoStereo significantly helps surgeons save 20% to 30% of the time in specific minimally invasive surgical procedures.
Root canal treatment was treated by hand files. It was easy to broken the files, due to the complicated root canal system. ENDOMAXR BRITE is born to solve the broken files and light problems. It features 5 unique torque, 9 rotation speed settings and LED modules and improves the visibility and safety of the root canal treatment. 3 modes to solve the broken files ●Auto-Reverse Forward mode: When the preset TQ is reached, it will run counterclockwise until the file is free from load, then continue to rotate clockwise. ●Auto-Reverse Stop mode: When the preset TQ is reached, it will run counterclockwise until the file is free from load, then stops. ●Reciprocating mode: It can be within 180° of the positive and negative rotation. The angle can be increased or decreased in 20° when function button is pressed. In order to solve the light problem, LED makes the root canal treatment process clearer. When the lithium battery is fully charged, it can be continuously used for up to one hour.
