The global mechanical ventilators market is estimated to be valued at USD 6.21 Bn in 2025 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period (2025-2032). Mechanical ventilators, commonly referred to as ventilators or breathing machines, are medical devices that provide mechanical ventilation by moving breathable air into and out of the lungs. They are often used to support patients experiencing respiratory distress or respiratory failure. Mechanical ventilation is crucial for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, severe asthma, lung fibrosis, and other lung diseases where the respiratory muscles and lungs are too weak to perform breathing adequately. The rising cases of respiratory diseases coupled with the aging population and increasing incidence of chronic health conditions leading to breathing difficulties have boosted the demand for mechanical ventilators worldwide in recent years.

Market Dynamics

The global mechanical ventilators market is driven by the rising prevalence of respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, asthma, and other respiratory disorders worldwide. As per studies, over 4.5 million deaths are reported annually due to Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) alone. Increased life expectancy and growth in global geriatric population who are more susceptible to respiratory problems also propels the market growth. Other factors such as rapid technological advancements leading to the development of advanced and portable ventilators, and growing investments by key players to expand their production capacities will provide opportunities for market growth over the forecast period. However, high costs associated with mechanical ventilators and availability of alternative respiratory care devices are expected to restrain the market growth to a certain extent.
