Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global fetal monitoring devices market will grow steadily at a CAGR of more than 7% by 2021. This market research analysis identifies the rising incidence of preterm births as one of the primary growth factors for this market. Premature babies normally have complications as they are born before they can completely develop in the womb. The medical problems associated with preterm births can be easily diagnosed with the fetal monitoring devices that can monitor the fetus, both antepartum and intrapartum. The fetal monitoring devices reduce the probability of infant deaths caused by complications due to preterm births and eliminates the possibility of disabilities, including learning, visual, and hearing problems.
The fetal monitoring devices market is moderately competitive and fragmented due to the presence of numerous established vendors who compete with several regional players. The vendors focus on the development of innovative and user-friendly fetal monitoring devices to gain a competitive advantage. The regional vendors provide high-quality products at low prices to compete with the larger vendors. The key vendors focus on product development, expansion of product portfolio, and geographical expansion by launching new technologies and product innovations.
External fetal monitoring is carried out by listening to an infant's heartbeat with a special stethoscope attached to two sensors. One sensor uses reflected sound waves (ultrasound) to track the infant's heart rate and the other sensor measures the length of contractions and they are connected to a machine that records the data. According to this industry research report, the external fetal monitoring devices segment will account for the major shares of this market throughout the forecast period.
During 2016, the Americas was the major revenue contributor to this market due to the increased awareness among people to utilize medical facilities, the rise in the number of awareness programs conducted by governments to reduce MMR and IMR, and the numerous efforts to enhance prenatal care. Additionally, product innovations and technological advancements also contribute to the growth of the market in this region.
