  • Medical Additive Manufacturing/ 3D Printing Annual Report 2018 Improving Public Health
    Medical Additive Manufacturing/ 3D Printing Annual Report 2018 Improving Public Health Each year, healthcare needs and costs grow due to an aging population, the rise in chronic diseases, and more. In fact, global healthcare spending is projected to reach nearly $9 trillion by 20201. To address this, practitioners in the healthcare industry continue to look for innovations that can provide quality care to patients at a reasonable cost. But they can’t do it alone. Today, the manufacturing industry is an important partner, with one particularly bright opportunity focused on Medical Additive Manufacturing/3D Printing (AM3DP). From anatomical models to early bioprinting applications, the use of AM3DP is providing benefits for patients and physicians/institutions including: ■ Better patient outcomes ■ Less time in the operating room ■ Reduced costs In 2017, as outlined in this Annual Report, collaboration between hospitals, device manufacturers, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and partners such as SME, led to extraordinary strides in identifying industry trends, opportunities, challenges and solutions. These partnerships drive efficiency through best practice sharing as well as accelerate innovation for applications such as bioprinting and tissue fabrication. They also lay the groundwork for 3D printing of organs and scaling up production of tissues which are still decades away. With millions of patients already directly impacted by the technology, this momentum continues into 2018 and beyond where AM3DP will continue to positively impact public health and drive strong business results. This 2017 Annual Report covers: COVER: Justin Ryan holds a pediatric heart model 3D-printed at the ■ Industry Overview Phoenix Children’s Hospital Cardiac 3D Print Lab.
