The disposable EEG electrodes segment was valued at USD 134.19 million in 2017. The price of disposable EEG electrodes is less than that of reusable electrodes. In addition to an improved safety profile and reduced price, the use of disposable EEG electrodes saves time, and money when compared to reusable EEG electrodes that require reprocessing, storage, and storage. Thus, such advantages are expected to boost the growth of the disposable EEG electrodes segment of the global EEG electrodes market during the forecast period.
Hospitals are at the forefront of neurological diagnosis and treatment and require state-of-the-art medical equipment and technology. Real-time data provided by EEG electrodes enables early detection of abnormalities and aids in the diagnosis of various neurological disorders such as epilepsy, sleep disorders, and brain injuries. The prevalence of neurological diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease is increasing worldwide. Furthermore, as hospitals act as primary medical facilities for patients suffering from these conditions, there is a significant need for EEG electrodes that enable accurate and timely diagnosis. EEG medical electrodes play an important role in assessing cognitive function and detecting abnormalities in the elderly, making them an essential tool for hospitals treating the elderly. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the hospital segment in the global market during the forecast period.
Clinics serve as essential centers for neurological diagnosis and treatment. EEG is an integral part of the diagnostic toolkit. The increasing prevalence of neurological diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and stroke has increased the demand for diagnostic devices such as EEG electrodes in clinics. The introduction of telemedicine and remote monitoring services in healthcare has further raised the demand for EEG medical electrodes in clinics. Remote EEG monitoring allows clinics to provide diagnostic services to patients in remote locations, enabling continuous patient monitoring without the need for in-person visits. Hence, these factors are expected to fuel the growth of the clinic's segment of the global market during the forecast period.

There are multiple factors influencing market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges.
Increasing initiatives and support from governments and healthcare organizations driving the growth of the market. Governments and healthcare institutions are making various efforts to improve healthcare access for patients with neurological disorders. For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) is working with partners and stakeholders to improve access to care for people with epilepsy. Also, the Welsh Government aims to improve access to care for people with neurological disorders such as epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and Parkinson's disease in Wales.
Furthermore, Dana Alliance organized Brain Awareness Week for Brain Initiatives, which is a global campaign aimed at raising public awareness of the advances and benefits of brain research. Public agencies are also increasing funding for neurological disorders. Such initiatives will increase the demand for EEG electrodes, which is expected to drive the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
The rising popularity of hybrid brain-computer interface techniques is the primary trend in the market. There is a growing demand for devices that combine two or more modalities of brain imaging and prosthetic control. Hybrid brain-computer interface (HBCI) has many advantages over single-brain acquisition methods. For example, device hybridization increases the number of brain commands for control applications, improves the classification accuracy of BCI, and reduces signal recognition time.
Moreover, EEG is often used in combination with other brain or extracerebral signal acquisition modalities due to its ease of use and fast temporal resolution. For example, electrooculography (EOG), electromyography (EMG), functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and eye trackers are increasingly used in his EEG. Robust dry EEG electrodes are essential for EEG-BCI to become a viable technique. Therefore, increasing demand for HBCI is expected to drive the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
The high cost of EEG devices and procedures is the challenge that affects the growth of the market. Many end users are void to use EEG devices because they are expensive. The cost of these devices depends on the number of channels. Depending on the number of channels, EEG headsets with 1 to 32 channels cost around USD 1,000 to USD 25,000, while EEG headsets with more than 64 channels can cost over USD 25,000. In addition to the cost of the device, end-users must also bear maintenance fees and other recurring costs for equipment and accessories.
Moreover, to afford neurodiagnostic tests it is difficult for the patients without insurance. On average, patients without insurance spend more than USD 200 on an EEG test. Patients who require extended EEG monitoring might have to spend more than USD 2,500 if extended monitoring is required. Therefore, the high cost of EEG devices and processes is expected to impede the growth of the global EEG electrode market during the forecast period.
