YangzhouFebruary 15, 2023/ PR Newswire /-- Meihua International Medical Technology Co., Ltd. ("MHUA" or "Company") (NASDAQ: MHUA), a well-known manufacturer and supplier of disposable medical devices with operating subsidiaries in China, announced today that the company has set up a team to carry out the research and development of robotic surgery systems and related production listing approval applications. The company will be engaged in the design of surgical robot body and the integration of related software and hardware.
Robotic surgery systems usually include one or more arms controlled by surgeons, a master controller or console, and a perceptual system that provides feedback to users. It implements remote surgery and combines the elements of robotics, telecommunications (such as high-speed data connections) and management information systems. Most of the domestic robot companies are located in the middle reaches, independently design the main body of the robot, integrate software and hardware, and the core components are usually purchased from abroad.
The company believes that the robotic surgery system has great market potential in China. China has a large aging population, but the limited medical resources are unevenly distributed across the country, resulting in a large demand for medical care. The huge gap in medical resources has given birth to an urgent demand for medical robots. The medical surgery robot can realize the intelligence of difficult surgery, help doctors master the operation skills quickly and reduce the workload of medical staff.
Mr. Wang Xin, CEO of the company, commented: "We are pleased to announce the company's plans for the robotic surgery system business. Our new team is also working on early capacity planning because we believe that in view of the rapid development of related technologies, the market demand for the system in China will be very large. With the continuous progress of communication technology and the emergence of larger bandwidth and more powerful computers, the convenience and cost-effectiveness of deploying remote surgical devices may increase rapidly. The Chinese government has a policy to support innovative medical devices and open green channels to speed up the approval process. The company will use this policy to obtain relevant licenses in a short period of time. The company has the potential and will strive to seize this market opportunity to promote and maintain meaningful growth in the future.
At present, 85% of surgeries in China are traditional, compared with 53% in the United States. In the United States, 68% of surgeries can be performed with robot assistance, but the current penetration rate is 4%. According to Precedence Research, the global market for surgical robots will grow at a compound annual growth rate of nearly 16.6% from 2022 to 2030, reaching US $21.3 billion by 2030. At present, the use of surgical robots in China is from a low base, but according to PricewaterhouseCoopers, the growth rate of surgical robot utilization in China will exceed that of most countries in the world. This shows that the market potential of robotic surgery system in China is quite huge.
