electronic medical devices.

(24-28 May 2010) & (31 May-4 June 2010)

In health care, medical imaging is one of the most important devices for medical purposes especially during the diagnosis stage. Medical imaging is the technique and process used to create images of the human body (or parts and function thereof) for clinical purposes (medical procedures seeking to reveal, diagnose or examine disease) or medical science (including the study of normal anatomy and physiology). In frost, medical imaging is rather one of the important research that done for the customer to help client to know more about the insights and market of the devices.

my job is to do research on the medical devices on how each devices operates and how they actually used the technology trend applied in the electronic devices.

it was quite a challenging work as this is my first time facing all this medical devices term.

17-21 May 2010

It was a really busy and challenging week. Im helping out in the project ‘ diabetes asia’ which we need to do secondary and primary research for countries in Asia. I will be handling countries Taiwan, Singapore.

I need to find contacts of doctors in china and Singapore to conduct an interview with them to gain their insights and opinions of the diabetes condition in their countries.

On the same time, I also need to undergo some secondary research about the diabetes condition for the particular company.

10-14May 2010

This week intern’s meeting we need to have an discussion/debate on a new topic that has been assigned to us. We need to do our preparation by google online and discuss among our group member. Cooperation is very much needed and there are different ideas from different members. We have to learn to combine and be tolerance with each other’s idea and presented it as a team.

This Friday is the company’s meeting. Every staffs gather around in meeting room and get to know each other. New staffs are introduced during the meeting and it was great meeting new people.

3-7 May 2010

Besides going on with the scheduling interview with CEO/ Market Manager of China Company, again, SMBG secondary research is back on track. But this time I need to do for Taiwan, Hong Kong and Thailand. It was tougher comparing Malaysia cause not much info can be found.

But still, I try my best to find as much info as I can. It was quite a busy week.

26-30 April 2010

Finally the SMBG project for Malaysia is over. This week I have been assigned a new task. I need to call china company to set up an interview sessions with them. It was kind a tough work as the CEO of the company is usually busy and we need to keep trying to in contact with them to get an interview from them. the challenge is that CEO always has tight schedule.


Before doing the call, I have to do some research about the company so that I will have more info about the company.

19-22 April 2010

This week I will be doing research base work. I have been assigned to handle secondary research for SMBG Malaysia (Self-monitoring blood glucose market). The purpose of this research is to help client to investigate the market trend of self-monitoring blood glucose devices. There are few criteria for this research which is drivers, restraints, market trend, future trend and government initiative.

The drivers are what cause the increase/decrease of diabetes. What are the drivers that drive the trend of diabetes? Restraints are what cause the drivers to happen. And market trend is the prevalence and incident rate of diabetes in the society. Future trend would be the future technology that will be used to drive this diabetes and what new technology has been invented to cure this sickness. Government initiative is effort from the government in promoting the awareness of diabetes.

From this research, I realize that Malaysia has a really high prevalence and incidents rate of diabetes patients. In Malaysia, an estimated 1.33 million suffer from diabetes, of which more that half are not aware that they have the disease.

Besides doing this research, I also need to do some translation work from English to Chinese for the questionnaire that be used during the interview with some china company.
