From an innovation systems perspective the performance of the German medical devices industry, future challenges and barriers to innovation are assessed. Current performance indicators (e.g., R&D intensity, export growth rates) paint a favourable picture. Nonetheless, a number of innovation barriers are identified: in particular, insufficient network integration of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and ineffective policy coordination. Finally, recommendations addressing identified future challenges and innovation barriers are developed.
从创新系统的角度评估了德国医疗器械行业的表现、未来挑战和创新障碍。当前的绩效指标（如研发强度、出口增长率）呈现出良好态势。尽管如此，仍发现了一些创新障碍：特别是中小企业的网络整合不足以及政策协调无效。最后，针对已识别的未来挑战和创新障碍提出了建议。
