Increasing Prevalence of Cardiovascular Diseases and Development and Launch of New Products to Augment Growth of ECG Monitoring Systems Market

 

ECG Monitoring Systems Market

Electrocardiogram or ECG is a graphical chart of the electrical activity of your heart measured via electrodes placed just above the skin surface. It is the most important test for interpretation of the cardiac rhythm, detection of myocardial ischemia and infarction, conduction system abnormalities, preexcitation, long QT syndromes, atrial abnormalities, ventricular hypertrophy, pericarditis, and other conditions.

Market Dynamics

Increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is expected to propel growth of the global ECG monitoring systems market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the American Heart Association's Heart and Stroke Statistics 2020 Update, by 2035, 45.1% of the U.S population is projected to have some form of cardiovascular disease. Total costs of cardiovascular disease are expected to reach $1.1 trillion in 2035, with direct medical costs projected to reach $748.7 billion and indirect costs estimated to reach US$ 368 billion. Moreover, increasing geriatric population is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, according to United Nations Population Fund, geriatric population in Asia Pacific is expected to triple between 2010 and 2050 to reach 1.3 billion people by 2050.

However, inaccuracy of wearable ECG devices and limited information offered by handheld ECG devices compared to conventional lead ECGs, is expected to limit growth of the global ECG monitoring systems market.

The global ECG monitoring systems market is witnessing several M&A activities. For instance, in November 2020, CB Scientific. Inc., a provider of products and services for the ambulatory noninvasive cardiac monitoring space, announced a definitive purchase agreement to acquire Datrix, LLC, an ambulatory device manufacturer based in Escondido, California, in order to expand ambulatory remote cardiac ECG monitoring product technology offering of the company.

Competitive Analysis

Major players operating in the global ECG monitoring systems market include, GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Nihon Kohden, Schiller AG, Opto Circuits (India) Limited, Opto Circuits (India) Limited, Welch Allyn, Fukuda Denshi Co., Ltd., OSI Systems, Lidco Group plc, Biotricity Inc., Bittium Corporation, Samsung, St. Jude Medical Inc., VivaQuant, and Johnson & Johnson.

Major players operating in the global ECG monitoring systems market are focused on development and launch of new products to expand their product portfolio. For instance, in January 2021, Samsung launched the Galaxy Watch 3 and Watch Active 2 with ECG hardware. The company also expanded the ECG and Blood Pressure tracking to 31 more countries.

  The Infrared Thermometer market is witnessing the fastest growth in the Asia Pacific region and this can be accredited to the growing aging population in the region which is driving demand for healthcare services. Japan has the highest growing aging population in the country. According to the Statistics Bureau, Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, in 2019, the aged population (65 years old and over) was 35.89 million, constituting 28.4 percent of the total population (i.e., 1 in every 4 persons) and marking a record high in Japan. The rise in prevalence of infectious disease and increase in the demand for the product for newborns as children cannot hold the contact thermometer is playing a key role in the overall development of the infrared thermometer market . According to the World Health Organization, HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, neglected tropical diseases, and viral hepatitis affects billions of people around the world and causes more than 4 million deaths each year

The Global Meningococcal Vaccines Market Continues To Grow Owing To the Demand from Healthcare Care Sectors across the World to Prevent the Spread of the Diseases Especially In Children

  Meningococcal vaccines prevent the contraction of meningococcal diseases, including meningitis caused by the bacteria called meningococcus aureus. An outbreak of meningococcal disease is usually followed by an onset of meningitis. Meningococcal meningitis can cause permanent damage to the brain or spinal cord in as little as 10 days, depending on the degree of infection and the natural immunity of the person. Since meningitis is usually associated with a fever and signs and symptoms of a serious illness, many parents prefer not to use the traditional treatments for their children such as meningitis or oral antibiotics. Instead, they often resort to various forms of therapeutic interventions that may even improve their chances of developing a positive outcome. Meningococcal vaccines are now available for meningococcal meningitis, as well as for men who have had other prior bouts of meningitis. Some vaccines used for these purposes are PPSV, Rallo, and Q fever type 1. These vaccines

       Sexual health is an important part of a person’s physical and mental health. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), sexual health requires a respectful and positive approach to sexual relationships and sexuality, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, violence, and discrimination. Sexual health leads to a healthy sex life without any sexually transmitted diseases, and to take preventive measures to avoid sexually transmitted infections. The elderly population (geriatric population) often suffer from one or more sexual disorders, such as premature (early) ejaculation, erectile dysfunctions, dyspareunia, and hypoactive sexual desire disorder, among others. Thus, with the increasing geriatric population worldwide, the prevalence/incidence of sexual disorders is also increasing, driving the growth of the sexual health market . According to WHO, the world's population aged 60 years and older is expected to tota
