Progress in Research and Application of Drug-Device Combination Product / 中国医疗器械杂志

Drug-device combination product, which comprises at least a drug and a medical device, has been proved to effectively reduce the risk of complications accompanied with conventional medical devices implantation, and has a great clinical success especially in implantable therapeutics. Herein, we firstly elaborated the definitions and requirements of drug-device combination product in different countries, then summarized the market application and research development of typical drug-device combination products. Technical problems and the trend of future development had also been analyzed.

Developing specific drug/device combination products improves the treatment level of the acute chemical injury / 国际药学研究杂志

To deal with effectively acute chemical injury events, the service ability of protective medicine against chemical weapons has being widened from dealing with traditional chemical warfare to public chemical accident or chemical terrorist attack. Focusing on the important researching and developing of medicine for chemical defense use only, the novel drug/device combination products should be vigorously promoted including the new mechanism, good curative effect and high safety of detoxification drugs such as hydroxycobalamin used in the treatment of known or suspected cyanide poisoning in both adults and the pediatric population, and the convenient and quick drug delivering technologies such as auto-injectors with a retreat hidden needle and a smart remindful injection, which could improve greatly the emergency medical rescue ability of chemical accidents.
