In the manufacturing process of medical equipment like lung plethysmographs for assessing lung function, region analysis plays a crucial role. Evaluating pulmonary fibrosis necessitates advanced tools such as body plethysmographs, which require trained personnel to operate due to their complexity and high cost. Raw materials used in these devices are selected meticulously to ensure accuracy and durability, reflecting their critical product position in the medical industry. Moreover, the region analysis helps in understanding geographical trends in diseases like pulmonary fibrosis, aiding healthcare strategies. The evaluation quadrant methodizes data for effective decision-making in healthcare management, and in the adult segment the leveraging insights from lung function tests conducted with precision instruments. As advancements continue in both manufacturing processes and evaluation techniques, the focus remains on enhancing diagnostic capabilities and treatment outcomes for respiratory conditions.
The increasing incidence and prevalence of lung and vascular diseases are notably driving the market growth. Lung and vascular diseases are the leading causes of mortality and morbidity globally. The incidence and prevalence of vascular diseases, such as DVT and pulmonary embolism (blood clots), and lung diseases, such as asthma and COPD, are increasing globally. These diseases are caused due to the abnormal condition of the arterial blood vessel, which can be diagnosed by using plethysmographs. These factors are increasing their applications globally.
The number of people with lung and vascular diseases is increasing, owing to factors such as sedentary lifestyles, obesity, smoking, environmental issues, lack of physical activity, alcohol consumption, and unhealthy eating habits. The increasing incidence of lung and vascular diseases necessitates the need for early diagnosis and regular monitoring of patients for identifying, treating, controlling, and limiting disease incidence and prevalence rates. The availability of advanced diagnostic devices, such as plethysmograph (which screens arterial and venous pathologies by measuring air and blood volume rates), will drive the market during the forecast period.
The advent of next-generation plethysmographs is the key trend in the market. Manufacturers are focusing on the development of next-generation plethysmographs to avoid misinterpretation of test results caused due to the use of conventional plethysmographs. The next-generation plethysmographs come up with the latest hardware design and advanced software features to provide highly accurate results.
For instance, MiniBox plus by PulmOne Advanced Medical Devices is a technologically breakthrough device with the transformation from a body box lung plethysmograph into an accurate tabletop device. It is a desktop, gasless device with complete PFT, such as whole-body plethysmograph, spirometry, and diffusion testing, used in clinical settings. This device is used to measure TLC, residual volume (RV), and single-breath CO diffusion in less than 2 minutes by providing accurate and repeatable results. Similarly, Q-Box by COSMED is a next-generation body box used for thoracic gas volume measurements, including static lung volumes (TLC, RV, and ITGV) and airway resistance and conductance (RAW and GAW) using a body plethysmograph.
Limitations and complications associated with plethysmographs is the major challenge impeding market growth. A plethysmograph is only used to measure the medical condition of a person with lung and vascular diseases, such as the pain in the chest wall and its muscles and the inability of the lungs to expand or contract, causing difficulty in breathing. It is not suitable to determine the cause of lung or vascular disease. Furthermore, the movement of the patient while using a body plethysmograph for the diagnosis of lungs and the presence of compressible material, particularly chairs with foam padding, within the plethysmography chambers cause unpredictable errors in results.
However, one of the complications associated with the use of a plethysmograph is an arterial puncture, which includes thrombosis, artery spasm, bleeding, or hematoma. Furthermore, patients may experience claustrophobia, shortness of breath, anxiety, lightheadedness, and infection risks (infection transmission occurs if the device's mouthpiece is not cleaned properly) while performing the test. All these limitations and complications of plethysmographs are expected to have an adverse impact on the market during the forecast period.
