Wearable Medical Device Market, Research and Challenges Till 2030
Market Overview
The global industry trends suggest that the Wearable Medical Device Market is projected to reach USD 30.1 billion by 2030 from USD 16.2 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 13.2%. The global market growth is driven by investments, funds, and grants and a growing preference for wireless connectivity among healthcare providers.
During the first quarter of 2022, when the pandemic was hitting the headlines, the market witnessed increased demand for certain products such as respiratory monitors, multi-parameter monitoring solutions, and point-of-care cardiac monitoring products like pulse oximeters and BP monitors. However, there was also an observed reduction in demand and delays in procurement of other products and services that are not critical to COVID-19 response efforts.
Wearables, such as smartwatches, smart bands, and others like finger rings, have been around for several years; however, COVID-19 triggered a significant increase in demand. Wearables help and play a vital role in fighting against COVID-19 and other future pandemics. For instance, the data available from wearable devices can be used for sending alerts to users when changes in their metrics match those associated with COVID-19 or other diseases. Wearable devices can also help to broadcast health knowledge, provide tracking and contact tracing capabilities, ensure social distancing, and have other advantages in the store like providing mental healthcare by tracking an individual’s cognition and mood in real-time, thus enabling personalized intervention. These and other similar applications boost the demand for the wearable medical device market.
