Construction and development trends of wisdom orthopedicecosystem / 中华骨科杂志

ABSTRACT

Characterized by intelligence, the new revolution of science and technology accelerates the high-speed development of different academic disciplines and promotes inter-change of ideas from each other. Thanks to the constantly emerging of different types of subversive ideas and techniques, the medicine model has been transformed gradually from experience medicine, evidence-based medicine and precise medicine to smart medicine and wisdom-based medicine. Under this background, the rapid development of orthopaedics is based on intelligent technologies, such as new information technology, advanced manufacturing technology, new materials technology, etc. Furthermore, all these changes also facilitate the wisdom transformation of clinical concepts, treatment methods and prognostic prediction of orthopaedics. Therefore, optimization of orthopaedic knowledge system and exploration of a wisdom-oriented development model are the mission and responsibility of the current orthopaedic physicians and researchers. In this paper, the connotation of wisdom is introduced, and several orthopaedic areas of application of novel intelligent technologies are overviewed. Hopefully through this way, an optimized wisdom orthopaedic ecosystem can be constructed step-by-step after being empowered by these cutting-edge technologies and giving full play to their advantages.
