In recent several decades, World medical apparatus and instruments industrydevelops vigorously and becomes a most active item in the global trade. In the1990s'the whole word economy was at a low ebb but medical treatment product stilldeveloped fine. Our country's medical instruments industry has experienced ahypervelocity developing process since the founding of New China. The averageannual growth rate of the output value has reached 15% and still continues to rise. Butthe overall level of the medical instrument products of our country is still far behindother developed countries. About 70% of the domestic market share is occupied bybig transcontinental enterprises, which not only brings great impact to domesticmedical instruments manufacturing corporate but also the growth of medicaltreatment expenses.According to the latest data, the general population of our country's old peopleaccounts for over 11% of the total population of china. So our country has alreadyenters aging society completely, which brings about a lot of problems. A great deal ofold people are in the period of the decrepitude of the body physical function, needingto get fine medical treatment nursing and diagnoses. In developed countries, it is atendency to reduce the time of patients treated in hospital, cut down their medicalexpense and encourage patients to prevent disease and recover in their familiar homeenvironment.With our country's economic growth and social progress, people'sself-health-care consciousness subsequently gets increasing, besides modern medicaltreatment service has already changed gradually from the simple mode of clinicaltreat and cure by medical institutions to the diversified and multi-layeredcomprehensive guarantee system including disease-preventing, hospital treatment,home nursing and health care etc. More and more different kinds of complicatedmedical apparatus entered into families. The user of medical apparatus changes fromprofessional medical personnel to common patient and his family members. So thepast design principle of taking medical personnel as the design center would change into patient and their family members.This paper has been divided into five chapter. The first chapter is an exordium,Simply introduced the rapid growth of medical instrument market of domestic andforeign countries, elaborated with emphasis on domestic market situation of medicalproducts under our country's present medical system as well as the research goal, thesignificance and the mentality; The second chapter has analyzed the influence whichbrought by our country's serious old age problem to the society. In parallel, under thecontrast with the overseas medical product manufacturing enterprises and theirproducts and unifies the author's real experience, it analyzed the present situation ofChinese medical manufacturing enterprises and the medical products under China'sold age background from the industrial design angle and gave the correspondingsuggestion; Under the synthetic study on senior citizen's physiological andpsychological demand, their life and behavior way and many other factors, the thirdchapter detailedly introduced the design idea of taking old patient as the design centreon household electronic medical health-care products, that is to say, which means tocoordinate the relationship between patients, medical care personnel and the medicalproducts, let the three be harmonious. This not only could provide the effectivediagnosis data and material for doctor, but also protect against illness and promote therecovery after sick illness. The fourth chapter makes the reasonable forecast to thefuture developing tendency of household electron medical products. The fifth chapteris a conclusion, makes the induction summary to the full text. Hoping the researchcan provide the powerful help to our country's medical product design, and has theinspiration to the domestic medical products manufacturing enterprises, helping themstay on top in the intense international market competition.
