Driver: Rising cases of cardiovascular diseases (CVD)
The rising chronic diseases like cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and respiratory illness in the population due to the changing life standards, eating and sleeping habits, rising consumption of alcohol, and smoking increase the risk of chronic illness in the population. The increase in the geriatric population globally is one of the major factors that drive cardiovascular disease cases.
The increasing popularity of wearable devices in the healthcare industry is due to their beneficial properties, like healthcare monitoring and real-time insights into patient health. Wearable technology allows us to tackle cardiovascular diseases by personalizing atrial fibrillation management, refining stroke prevention strategies, and maintaining the physician-patient relationship. Thus, the rising awareness about wearable healthcare technologies is driving the growth of the wearable cardiac devices market.
For instance, cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world. Among the total population, 620 million people live with circulatory and heart diseases worldwide. Every year, approximately 60 million people develop a circulatory or heart disease, which leads to 1 in 3 deaths globally.
Restraint: Regularities issues
The wearable cardiac devices market faces challenges in various regional markets due to strict regulations and lower awareness about these devices. Many countries have stringent regulations regarding adopting wearable healthcare devices, citing concerns about their accuracy. Additionally, limited awareness among the population about the benefits and capabilities of wearable cardiac devices hinders their widespread adoption.
This lack of understanding and acceptance contributes to the slower market growth in these regions. Overcoming these challenges will require efforts to educate healthcare professionals and the general public about the potential advantages of wearable cardiac devices and work towards meeting regulatory standards. By addressing these issues, the market for wearable cardiac devices may see increased acceptance and growth in regions where such challenges currently exist.
Technological advancements in wearable cardiac devices help enhance the efficiency and accuracy of health monitoring systems. It improves the patient and physician experience by collecting data and monitoring ECG-based cardiac activities. The latest wearable cardiac devices can be worn all seven days, anywhere, due to their compact size, water resistance, lightweight, and disposable properties.
The advancements in wearable devices offer great efficiency and save time for both patients and physicians. It has the ability to track any symptoms without any issues. The rising geriatric population and the pandemic drive the sustainable growth of wearable cardiac devices in the global market due to the rising demand for home healthcare. Additionally, the increasing participation of major technology leading companies in wearable healthcare devices is further driving the opportunity for the wearable cardiac devices market.
The defibrillators segment dominated the wearable cardiac devices market during the forecast period. The increasing acceptance of cardioverter-defibrillators is enhancing the efficiency of monitoring and increases the survival rate at high risk of sudden cardiac death from ventricular tachyarrhythmia. The devices are responsible for continuous recording and transmission via modem in both bradyarrhythmias and tachyarrhythmia. Clinical studies state that wearable defibrillators had higher efficiency in terminating ventricular fibrillation (VF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT). Thus, the higher efficiency and accuracy of devices drive the expansion of the wearable defibrillator segment.
The home healthcare segment dominates the wearable cardiac devices market and is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period. The increasing preference for home healthcare in the population at the time of the outburst of the COVID-19 pandemic is contributing to the growth of the segment. Wearable devices allow monitoring and tracking of healthcare data and provide valuable insights to physicians from anywhere, resulting in a reduction in hospital visits.
