December 12–14, 2025 – Beihai, Guangxi — The "2025 Annual Academic Congress of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery of Guangxi Medical Association & Learning Course on Minimally Invasive Techniques for Cardiac and Great Vessels" was successfully held in Beihai, Guangxi. Organized by the Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Branch of the Guangxi Medical Association, the congress brought together multidisciplinary experts from across the region in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, anesthesiology, cardiopulmonary bypass, intensive care, and nursing to engage in in-depth discussions on cutting-edge technologies in the cardiothoracic field.

As a key component of the congress, the Chest Wall Sub‑forum was held on the afternoon of December 13, focusing on topics including chest wall deformities, trauma, reconstruction, and rehabilitation — showcasing the latest advancements and clinical practices in this field.
At this Chest Wall Sub‑forum, Guangzhou Yikang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (EMK) , a leading innovator in non‑surgical correction for chest wall deformities in China, prominently showcased its two core independently developed products: the Smart Constant Pressure Pectus Excavatum Vacuum Bell and the 3D‑Printed Custom Pectus Carinatum Brace. Centered on intelligence, personalization, and digitalization, this product series is driving the evolution of chest wall deformity treatment from traditional surgical models toward minimally invasive, precise, and fully trackable rehabilitation pathways.

The system integrates precision modeling, intelligent control, and remote management to provide a closed‑loop solution for non‑surgical correction:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Precision 3D Modeling, Customized Treatment Plan | Reconstructs the patient's chest model using 3D scan or CT data; custom‑designs the vacuum bell structure and contact surface based on individual depression patterns, achieving "one patient, one device" personalized fit — significantly improving treatment efficiency and fit stability. |
| Smart Constant Pressure Control System | Built‑in high‑sensitivity pressure monitoring module instantly detects suction status and automatically compensates for pressure fluctuations caused by body movement or minor air leaks — maintaining stable therapeutic negative pressure for consistent correction. |
| Smart Pressure Ramp Algorithm | Segmented pressure control with differentiated ramp‑up rates across pressure ranges achieves gradual, gentle negative pressure increase, effectively reducing initial discomfort and significantly improving long‑term wear compliance — especially for children and sensitive users. |
| Personalized Pressure Protection | Maximum treatment pressure can be individually set according to patient age, body type, chest structure, and tolerance; system automatically limits pressure to prevent over‑pressurization risks, ensuring dynamic balance between efficacy and safety. |
| Smart Data Management | Supports real‑time data upload via Bluetooth; automatically stores data locally when offline and seamlessly synchronizes upon reconnection — ensuring data continuity and integrity for long‑term treatment tracking and evaluation. |
| Remote Monitoring via WeChat | Parents can track their child's usage duration, pressure levels, and treatment trends in real time through a WeChat Mini Program. Data can be shared with physicians or other family members, enabling remote treatment adjustments and collaborative care. |

The custom Pectus Carinatum Brace also leverages digital technology to deliver personalized correction:
3D Scanning & Intelligent Modeling: High‑precision 3D body surface scanning captures accurate chest data, and algorithms generate a perfectly fitted brace. The brace is lightweight, breathable, and comfortable for extended wear — especially suitable for growing children and adolescents.
A company representative stated during the congress: "Treatment for chest wall deformities is shifting from a 'one‑size‑fits‑all' approach to 'one patient, one strategy' — from surgical dependence to intelligent orthotic correction. EMK will continue to deepen its focus on chest wall rehabilitation, leveraging technological innovation to help patients achieve safer, more effective, and more comfortable non‑surgical recovery."
EMK has established direct‑service centers in multiple key cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Xiamen, forming a nationwide service network. The company has been recognized as a National High‑Tech Enterprise and a Guangdong Provincial Innovative SME.
As chest wall disease treatment becomes increasingly minimally invasive, intelligent, and systematized, EMK is leveraging its independent innovation and digital rehabilitation technologies to continuously lead the development of non‑surgical correction for chest wall deformities in China — driving technological momentum toward building a comprehensive, full‑cycle chest wall health management system.
