Single use disposable patient positioning products are extensively used in hospitals, specialty care, and homecare setting. Products such as single use knee pads, arm cradles, and heel protectors are in demand among patients, as they can be used in home care settings. Single use disposable patient positioning products are preferred by hospitals, as these products are cost-effective, time saving, and prevent cross-contamination. The global single use disposable patient positioning market is expected to grow in the near future, owing to increasing number of surgeries and chronic disorders.

Market Dynamics

The increasing prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders is expected to drive growth of the single use disposable patient positioning market in the forecast period. For instance, according to a report of State of Musculoskeletal Health 2018, around 17.8 million people in the U.K. had a musculoskeletal condition, which was around 28.9% of U.K.’s total population in 2017.

Furthermore, the increasing number of healthcare acquired infections (HAIs) are also expected to increase demand for single use disposable patient positioning products. For instance, according to National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) report of 2017, in India, the most common HAIs are urinary tract infections, surgical site infections, hospital associated pneumonia, and hospital associated blood stream infection, and others.

However, growth of the global single use disposable patient positioning market is expected to be hindered by the increasing demand for reusable gel patient positioning products, which reduce reoccurring cost of single-use patient positioning products. However, reusable products require cleaning, disinfecting, and sterilizing.
