Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

8. Introduction
ICU has sometimes been referred to as hospital. ICU includes patient
monitoring, respiratory and cardiac support, pain management,
emergency resuscitation devices, and other life support equipment
designed to care for patients who are seriously injured, have a critical
or life-threatening illness, or have undergone a major surgical
procedure, thereby requiring 24-hour care and monitoring.
9. Definition of an intensive care unit
It has a defined geographical location concentrating the human and
technical resources, such as manpower, professional skills and
competencies, technical equipment and the necessary space.
10. Coronary ICU:
Cardiac or coronary care units is used by the patients who have or are
thought to suffer from acute MI, arrhythmias or some other cardiac
emergency conditions.
11. Objectives of an ICCU/ICTU
• to provide care to patients who have or are thought to suffer from
acute MI, arrhythmias or some other cardiac and thoracic emergency
conditions.
• to provide specialized care to patients with specific conditions.
• For the monitoring and support of threatened or failing vital functions
in critically ill patients.
• to perform adequate diagnostic measures and medical or surgical
therapies to improve outcome.
14. Location
An ICCU/CTICU will be situated in a hospital with appropriate
departments to ensure that the multidisciplinary needs of
intensive care medicine are met.
15.
16. Size
An ICCU/CTICU should accommodate as a minimum at least 6
beds, with 8–12 beds considered as the optimum.
19. • Level of care III (highest). LOC III represents patients with multiple
acute vital organ failure of an immediate life-threatening character,
Patients on mechanical ventilator, patients immediately after cardiac
surgery.
• Level of care II. LOC II represents patients requiring monitoring and
pharmacological and/or device-related support of only one acutely
failing vital organ system with a life-threatening character.
• Level of care I (lowest). LOC I patients experience signs of organ
dysfunction necessitating continuous monitoring and minor
pharmacological or device-related support.
21. Required number of intensive coronary care beds
The number of intensive care beds has to be calculated as a
function of the type of the hospital, admission of patients, the
geographic location of the hospital, number of acute beds, etc.
22. Quality control
Quality control encompasses a wide variety of activities and items
needed to objectivate and explain the excellence of performance,
and benchmark with peers.
23. Each ICCU/CTICU should evaluate its activity, bearing in mind that a
critical minimum amount for hospital acquired infections,
complications or errors is necessary to maintain medical and nursing
expertise at adequate levels.
24. Every ICCU/CTICU is required to have a quality assessment
and improvement program in order to compare with a
national/European benchmark.
28. Durable equipment
Criteria for the selection, purchasing, storage, servicing,
sterilization, and replacement of durable equipment.
• Intensive coronary care unit equipment includes:-
• patient monitoring
• life support and emergency resuscitation devices
• diagnostic devices
29. PATIENT MONITORING EQUIPMENTS
• Acute care physiologic monitoring system
• Pulse oximeter
• Cental venous pressure monitor
• Apnea monitor
• Arterial BP monitor
• Holter monitor
• Portable ECG and ECO machine
• TEE
30. LIFE SUPPORT & RESUSCITATIVE EQUIPMENTS
• Ventilator
• defibrillators
• infusion pump
• crash cart
• Intra aortic baloon pump
32. Floor plan and connections
• The unit consists of a geographically distinct entity in the
hospital with controlled access. The through-traffic of
patients and provisioning not intended for the ICCU should
be avoided.
33. • Layout of the ICCU/CTICU should allow rapid access from the
following:
The emergency
department
Postoperative
areas
The medical
imaging
department
The functional
testing facilities
e.g., catheter
lab, endoscopy
The operating

• Nursing staff
• Head nurse
• Nurses
48. Activity criteria
To assure optimal patient care, a complex and time-critical interplay
among different groups of professionals, using a wide range of
pharmacological interventions, treatments, and procedures, is needed
• This includes the following:
– Presence of inter-professional clinical rounds
– Standardized and structured processes of handover and of
interdisciplinary and interprofessional information transfer
– Use of a clinical information system (patient data management
system)
49. Definition of intensive care patients
Two types of patients are likely to benefit from admission to
an ICU:
1. Patients requiring monitoring and treatment because one or more
vital functions are threatened by an acute disease or by the sequelae of
surgical or other intensive treatment leading to life-threatening
conditions.
50. 2. Patients already having failure of one of the vital functions such as
cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, metabolic, or cerebral function but
with a reasonable chance of a meaningful functional recovery.
