The 33rd Indonesia Hospital, Medical, Pharmaceutical, Clinical Laboratories Equipment, and Medicine Exhibition has already been implemented on 26 – 29 January 2022 at Jakarta Convention Center. This event was attended by various parties including manufacturers, distributors as vendors and hospitals, health institutions, clinics individuals as well as participants. The event which lasted for 3 days was attended by more than 100 vendors who showcased their products.
Hospital Expo 2021 is an event that takes place every year. In the previous year due to the pandemic, this event was held online, but this year it has been done offline again. Because it takes place during a pandemic, then at this event, the entry schedule is divided into 4 sessions, including:
1. Session 1 (9.00-11.00)
2. Session 2 (11.00-13.00)
3. Session 3 (13.00-15.00)
4. Session 4 (15.00-17.00)
One of these events was attended by Sinocare Indonesia, which also collaborated with Isotekindo Intertama. We collaborated on the introduction and marketing of Sinocare PCH-100 HbA1c Analyzer which is a product for HbA1c monitoring, and Sinocare ACR Analyzer which is a product for examination of kidney function (microalbumin, creatinine, and the ratio of microalbumin to creatinine) which is easy, cheap and practical to use.
After this event was held, information was obtained that there were still many people who did not know about HbA1c where HbA1c testing became one of the parameters to see blood sugar profiles for the past 3 months, according to the erythrocyte life cycle. After this event was held, we know that there were still many people who did not know about HbA1c testing becoming one of the parameters to see blood sugar profiles for the past 3 months, according to the erythrocyte life cycle. Because if someone is consistent in measuring their HbA1c, there are many risks of disease complications that can be reduced including, impaired kidney function, blindness, diabetic ulcers, etc. This event also showed the enthusiasm of the participants to know more about HbA1c.

In addition, the Sinocare ACR Analyzer product also has its own attention from the participant's perspective, because they think that this product is very easy to use, including without the addition of other materials. In addition, the measurement time is relatively more efficient. At this event, free blood sugar checks and a trial for measuring HbA1c were also carried out which became a special concern for participants.
And it can be concluded that events such as EXPO Hospital 2021 will be a breakthrough for all of us to understand more about the types and functions of many medical device products, thereby increasing the awareness of more people to be able to understand more knowledge about medical devices and lead to products that can be obtained much better.
