Portable Medical Equipment Market Highlights 2020-2029
The portable medical equipment market is estimated to grow with a high CAGR during the forecast period, i.e., 2021-2029. This can primarily be attributed to the increasing awareness among people about preventive healthcare, which has further resulted in the growing adoption of technologically advanced medical equipment. Additionally, the rising geriatric population globally is also projected to escalate the demand for portable medical equipment in the forthcoming years. According to the World Bank Data, an estimated 9.09% of the world’s population were aged 65 and over in 2019. Further, as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO), the world’s population aged over 60 years was expected to rise from 12% in 2015 to an estimated 22% in 2020. Moreover, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases is also projected to generate substantial demand for portable medical equipment in the upcoming years. According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), chronic diseases are among the most prevalent health conditions affecting approximately 1 in 3 adults globally.
The market is segmented by product type into diagnostic imaging, therapeutics, monitoring devices, and smart wearable medical devices. The monitoring devices segment is anticipated to grab the largest share by the end of 2029 on account of their rising adoption in healthcare facilities. In addition to this, the increasing consciousness among people regarding personal care & health is also contributing to the growth of the market segment. Further, it is expected that the smart wearable devices segment is set to witness the fastest growth owing to the rising demand for fitness and health monitoring among the young population.
Based on application, the cardiology and gynecology segments in the global portable medical equipment market are projected to grow with a lucrative CAGR over the forecast period.
