Efforts to promote self-reliance in domestic medical devices are\nincreasingly focusing on the integration of digital technology. A\ncollaboration between PT Darya-Varia Laboratoria Tbk and PT Astra\nKomponen Indonesia (Aski) has produced health devices based on\nartificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), claimed\nto meet the needs of independent health monitoring.<\/p>\n
The product launch took place at Aski\u2019s manufacturing facility and\nwas attended by Health Minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin. During the visit,\nthe government also inspected the production line as well as research\nand development facilities to ensure the readiness of the local industry\nin producing technology-based medical devices.<\/p>\n
Of the six devices introduced, two are direct results of the\ncollaboration between the two companies: DiViLab Optima (4 in 1) and\nDiViLab Core (3 in 1).<\/p>\n
Both devices are designed to integrate various health examination\nfunctions into a single unit, from blood pressure to metabolic\nparameters such as blood sugar, cholesterol, and uric acid.<\/p>\n
DiViLab Optima is described as a multifunctional device that combines\nfour measurements simultaneously in a connected system. Meanwhile,\nDiViLab Core offers a more compact version with three main\nparameters.<\/p>\n
Both are equipped with health trend monitoring features, AI-based\npredictive analytics, and support for remote monitoring by family or\nmedical personnel.<\/p>\n
President Director of Darya-Varia, Ian Kloer, views this development\nas a strategic step to expand public access to technology-based health\nmonitoring.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe collaboration with ASKI reflects our commitment to delivering\ndomestic medical device innovations that are not only competitive but\nalso relevant to the needs of Indonesian society,\u201d he stated, as quoted\non Thursday (2\/4).<\/p>\n
\u201cThe development of DiViLab Optima and DiViLab Core is a strategic\nstep in providing technology-based health monitoring solutions that\nsupport national health programmes, particularly in increasing awareness\nand access to self-screening,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, the development of local medical devices is also\ndriven by the increasing capacity of the domestic industry. ASKI has\ndeveloped more than 30 types of products with a domestic content level\n(TKDN) of 40%-59%.<\/p>\n
The trend of using local products continues to rise, in line with\nclaims of improved quality and reliability that are deemed capable of\ncompeting with imported products.<\/p>\n
The collaboration is seen as reflecting a new direction for the\nnational health industry, which not only focuses on production but also\non data and technology integration.<\/p>\n
With this approach, industry players hope to accelerate the adoption\nof digital health solutions while strengthening the position of domestic\nproducts in a market that has long been dominated by global\nproducts.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/local-ai-based-medical-devices-encouraged-to-enter-the-market-1775106598", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
