A brief introduction to Southern University of Science and Technology Hospital
Southern University of Science and Technology Hospital （SUSTech Hospital）, located on the bank of Xili Lake and beside Shigu Mountain, is a tertiary comprehensive public hospital integrating medical treatment, teaching, scientific research, personnel training and international exchanges.
The hospital was founded in 1985 and ever since has been fully committed to medical treatment in the northern part of Nanshan for more than 30 years. On December 28th, 2017, Nanshan District Government and Southern University of Science and Technology signed a cooperation agreement and started a new journey of District-University cooperation. In May 2018, the hospital was renamed "Southern University of Science and Technology Hospital" from "Xili People's Hospital". On November 22, 2019, it had successfully achieved comprehensive tertiary hospital status.
（On December 28, 2017, a district-university collaborative agreement was signed; a joint district-university committee system was established to promote the high-quality development of the hospital.）
(Implementing an innovative model with the Party Secretary + Dean + Executive Dean)
The hospital fully implements the dean responsibility system under the leadership of the Party committee, establishes a joint district-university committee system, and adopts a cooperative model where the Party Secretary is appointed by the Nanshan District to the hospital, the Dean is delegated by the Southern University of Science and Technology, and the Executive Dean, who also serves as the hospital's legal representative, is appointed by the Nanshan District. Adhering to the main thread of leading the high-quality development of the hospital with party building, the hospital leverages smart empowerment and integrates party affairs with business operations to stimulate internal driving forces. Centering on the concept of people's health, the hospital constructs a "unified body with two wings" framework to support the "Dual Three Construction" initiative, achieving high-quality development of the hospital.
(The main structure of the second phase of the surgical comprehensive building has been completed and topped out.)
The hospital covers an area of 26,600 square meters, with the first phase of the building covering nearly 100,000 square meters, capable of accommodating 800 beds. The second phase, the surgical comprehensive building, is currently under accelerated construction. Upon completion, the total building area will reach 220,000 square meters, and the bed capacity will increase to 1,200. The hospital aims to put this new facility into use by 2025, laying a solid foundation for the establishment of a top-tier, Grade-A hospital.
The hospital has established 3 clinical departments, 44 clinical disciplines, 11 medical technical disciplines, and 2 research centers. In recent years, it has vigorously introduced high-level talents, and the rapid growth of high-level professionals has driven the swift improvement of medical technology standards.
(Pioneering the introduction of Shenzhen's first "Magnetic Resonance Knife" treatment system, establishing a Magnetic Resonance Knife Treatment Center)
(Cutting-edge technology leadership supported by high-end equipment)
The hospital is equipped with high-end medical devices such as MRI, Magnetic Resonance Knife, 256-slice spiral CT, integrated DSA catheterization room, dual-panel DR, and fully automated biochemistry and hematology assembly lines. It has established intelligent digital facilities, including state-of-the-art intelligent digital operating rooms, composite operating rooms, and advanced simulation centers, providing excellent technical support for high-quality medical services to patients.
(Intelligent digital orthopedic technology highlights advantages)
The Department of Orthopedics is a key discipline in Nanshan District. It has successfully carried out the country's first Mixed Reality (MR) navigation spinal surgery and the first O-arm assisted Tianji robot spinal surgery, among other cutting-edge technologies, with the number of Tianji robotic orthopedic surgeries ranking first in the South China region. The department is a pioneer in China for demonstrating and fully introducing top international medical teams, establishing the "International Orthopedics Department (IOC)" to provide advanced international medical services to the people of Shenzhen City, the Greater Bay Area, and even Southeast Asia.
The hospital has been approved for five "Three Famous Projects" in Nanshan District, introducing several renowned medical teams, such as the "Medical Imaging Diagnosis and Treatment Team of Academician Teng Gaojun from Southeast University Affiliated Zhongda Hospital," the "Precision Diagnosis and Treatment Innovation Team for Urological and Male Diseases led by Professor Liang Chaochao from the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University," the "Nephrology Expert Team led by Professor Liu Bicheng from Southeast University Affiliated Zhongda Hospital," the "Orthopedic Team led by Professor Mei Wei from Zhengzhou Orthopedic Hospital," and the "Pediatric Ophthalmology Team led by Professor Wang Lejin from Peking University People's Hospital," enhancing the hospital's disciplinary capabilities.
The clinical application of intelligent and digital technologies has highlighted advantages, forming distinct characteristics in departments such as orthopedics, neurology, gynecology, neurosurgery, and stomatology. The hospital will focus on leading-edge technology and international medical services as its features, striving to create 3-5 distinctive and technologically advanced disciplinary groups.
(The Innovation Research Institute has successfully established a Guangdong Provincial Science Popularization Base and a Nanshan District Science Popularization Base.)
The hospital, in collaboration with the Southern University of Science and Technology, has jointly established a leading domestic and internationally advanced "Innovation Research Institute." It is dedicated to bridging the "last mile" in translating clinical applications, striving to develop the Innovation Research Institute into an important transformation platform for innovative high-tech in intelligent medical care. The institute aims to fully gather high-quality resources in the field of intelligent medicine and accelerate the research and industrialization of intelligent medical technologies.
(Construct a high-level clinical medical research center, taking national or regional major diseases as the entry point to promote clinical translational applications.)
The Pharmacy Department's intravenous admixture service (IVAS) center is the first in Shenzhen to pass the Guangdong Provincial PIVAS inspection and was approved as the first batch in Guangdong Province and the first intravenous admixture pharmacist training base in Shenzhen. Its intelligent management model has been selected as a national-level hospital management case study.
The innovative establishment of the Patient Care Center is guided by the "patient-centered" medical philosophy, service model, and medical-patient system, focusing on improving the medical experience and providing patients with comprehensive and holistic humanistic care services throughout the process.
In December 2021, the Shenzhen Veterans Affairs Bureau and the Southern University of Science and Technology Hospital jointly established Shenzhen's first "Veterans Special Treatment Center." After nearly two years of development, in July 2023, the independent "Shenzhen Veterans Hospital" was officially inaugurated. It provides a green channel for veterans and their family members, offering "four preferences, four exemptions, four specializations, and four enjoyments" as part of a one-stop medical service. This initiative fills the gap of a preferential treatment hospital in Shenzhen and begins a new chapter in the city's medical support for the military.
The hospital is currently at a critical period of transformation, innovation empowerment, and accelerating development. It will continue to be guided by party-building principles, leveraging the cooperative management model between the district and the university. Focusing on the goal of becoming a "Grade A tertiary hospital," the hospital is driving transformation and upgrades through innovation. It is committed to building a new level of hospital that is fully functional, reasonably scaled, with outstanding disciplinary features, interconnected intelligent systems, rich humanistic care, affiliated with the Southern University of Science and Technology, and contributing to the services in the Nanshan area.
