North America is estimated to contribute 42% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. Factors such as the high prevalence of respiratory disorders and chronic diseases, increasing the number of surgeries, the presence of skilled physicians, and advances in healthcare infrastructure are significantly contributing to the growth of the market in the region. In addition, the presence of prominent companies such as General Electric Co., Medtronic, Masimo, and Smiths Medical is also driving the market in North America. There is an increasing case of mortality rate due to respiratory disorders and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) over the years, resulting in early diagnosis and prevention. Hence such factors are expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
In the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare, technological advancement in pulse oximeters has revolutionized patient monitoring, particularly for the geriatric population and Covid affected patients. These devices, widely used in hospital and homecare centers, provide critical data on oxygen saturation levels and other vital stats, enhancing patient safety and reducing morbidity and mortality. With the advent of Bluetooth devices and wire monitoring devices, pulse oximeters offer proactive monitoring capabilities, benefitting both clinicians and home consumers. Amidst the pandemic, remote monitoring solutions have become indispensable, driving the pulse oximetry market forward with a focus on technological advancements and patient-centric care. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
One of the key factors driving market growth is the increasing prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases. Some of the wide variety of applications include use for various indications, such as endotracheal intubation, cardiac arrest, procedural sedation, asthma/chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), respiratory complaints, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sleep disorders/sleep apnea, and shunts in cyanotic heart disease.
One of the main reasons for the increasing demand for such oximeters, especially in both developed and developing countries is due to the prevalence of chronic respiratory disorders such as COPD, asthma, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). There is an increasing growth of asthma in low and middle-income countries, especially those in Asia. For instance, it is estimated that approximately 34 million people in India had asthma in 2022, accounting for 13.09% of the global burden. COPD is the third-leading cause of death worldwide and caused over 3.2 million deaths globally in 2022. Hence, such factors are expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
A key factor shaping market growth is the increasing online marketing strategies by companies. There is a shift in the marketing strategies adopted by companies for pulse oximeters due to their increasing preference for home care settings. Therefore, companies are innovating new ways to market these products increasing their market presence via online marketing activities to achieve more product sales.
Masimo, which is one of the prominent companies are marketing its product by increasing its online presence by creating official pages on social media sites like Twitter and Facebook. Several market players are increasingly engaging in online retailing as this enables them to expand their target market beyond end-users like clinics and hospitals and be more accessible to home-based healthcare end-users. Hence such trends are expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Data privacy issues in wearable pulse oximeters are one of the key challenges hindering market growth. As Wearable pulse oximeters involve the transfer of an individual's health-related data to healthcare providers, these devices share an enormous amount of data related to personal health and fitness with an unquantifiable audience and are very prone to data leaks.
Further, there is a growing concern regarding the data privacy concerns of wearable pulse oximeters as it is small in size and can store huge volumes of data, but the chance of this device going missing is high. Also, these devices have GPS functionality which allows the user to share their location with an unknown user. Hence such data privacy concerns are expected to hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
