by The global Smart Medical Devices market is experiencing a significant surge in demand, driven by the increasing adoption of intelligent medical devices that offer time and cost savings on hospital visits. These innovative devices empower individuals to take charge of their health and fitness by continuously monitoring vital health parameters and providing rapid responses to potential health issues. The rising global smartphone adoption, coupled with a growing need for wireless and smartphone-compatible medical devices, heightened public awareness of health and fitness, and an increasing demand for home healthcare, are all contributing to the expansion of the smart medical devices market.
Rising Smartphone Sales Fuel Growth
The market for smartphone-compatible intelligent medical devices is set to expand further as smartphone sales rise globally. Factors such as increased disposable income, growing consumer electronics expenditure, and changing lifestyles are projected to drive sales. In 2022, the number of smartphone users worldwide is expected to reach 6.648 billion, covering 83.72 percent of the worlds population. Additionally, 7.26 billion people, equivalent to 91.54 percent of the global population, own smart or feature phones. This surge in smartphone adoption will undoubtedly boost the market for smartphone-compatible smart medical devices.
Innovation Drives Market Expansion
Key industry players, including Apple, Inc., Fitbit, Inc., and Medtronic, have been introducing innovative products, further propelling the smart medical devices market. The unforeseen COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of telehealth services and mobile health products, such as tele-ICU devices, which facilitate remote interactions between healthcare providers and patients. In response to the pandemic, LIVI, the UK arm of Europes largest digital healthcare supplier, KRY, launched LIVI Interact, a free web-based platform allowing healthcare professionals to conduct video consultations with remote patients.
Aging Population Boosts Demand for Wireless Medical Devices
The demand for wireless portable medical devices, utilized in monitoring, medical treatments, diagnosis, fitness, and wellness applications, is on the rise. Factors such as population growth, increasing income levels, an aging population, and heightened awareness of health and wellness are driving the expansion of the portable medical device market. The United Nations Database on World Population Ageing 2020 predicts that by 2050, there will be 1.5 billion older adults worldwide, up from 727 million in 2020. This demographic shift, coupled with age-related immobility and associated health issues, will contribute to the growth of the smart medical devices market in the coming years.
Diagnostic and Monitoring Lead the Way
The diagnostic and monitoring segment of the smart medical devices market holds the largest share and is expected to continue growing due to government initiatives to enhance patient care and investments in innovative medical devices. The category offers flexibility and easy access to a wide range of products, making it a profitable segment with significant growth opportunities. Patient monitoring devices, crucial for managing chronic diseases like diabetes, stroke, and renal disease, are in high demand.
North America at the Forefront
North America dominates the smart medical devices market and is expected to maintain its leading position. The region boasts high-quality healthcare facilities with reasonable regulations, ensuring healthcare accessibility to a large population. Technological innovation and early adoption of innovative medical equipment have driven market growth in North America. The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, like coronary heart disease, is also contributing to the demand for remote and at-home patient monitoring equipment.
Asia Pacific Emerges as a Growth Leader
The Asia Pacific region is poised to witness the fastest growth in the smart medical devices market. Countries like China and Japan, with improving economic climates, have seen a growing population, rising disposable income, and a demand for technologically advanced medical devices. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases among Asians and the growing elderly population will further boost the demand for remote monitoring and home-based patient monitoring systems.
Competitive Landscape
Key players in the global smart medical devices market, including Garmin Ltd., Fitbit, Inc., and Biotelemetry, Inc., are driving innovation and introducing novel products. For instance, Fitbit, Inc. launched Fitbit Sense, an enhanced health smartwatch, in August 2020, enabling the measurement of electrodermal activity responses to better understand the bodys reactions to stimuli.
Prominent players in the smart medical devices market include Abbott Laboratories, Apple, Inc., Dexcom, Inc., F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic plc, NeuroMetrix, Inc., Sonova, and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.
