Global ECG Monitoring Systems Market– Driver

Increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases

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 2021 update, around 48% of all adults in the U.S. suffered from some type of cardiovascular disease in 2020.  Smoking has a high prevalence of optimum levels for a cardiovascular disease component (79.8% of individuals say they have never smoked or have never smoked in the past 12 months).

Growing geriatric population

Growing geriatric population can also drive the ECG monitoring systems market growth. For instance, according to an article published in World Health Orgnisation in November 2022, reported 1 in 6 people in the world will be aged 60 years or over in 2030. The share of the population aged 60 years and over will increase from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion. By 2050, the world’s population of people aged 60 years and older will double (2.1 billion). Non- cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis is the most common in elderly and frailer patients with estimated cases of 50% in patients over 65 years of age and 19.1% in patients over 75 years old.

 Global ECG Monitoring Systems Market- Regional Analysis

Among regions, North America is estimated to hold a dominant position in the global ECG monitoring systems market over the forecast period. North America is estimated to hold 38.3% of the market share North America holds a significant market share in the ECG monitoring systems market worldwide, mainly due to the key market players are focusing on organic statergies such as launch of Novel ECG monitoring systems. For instance, in June 2020, GE Healthcare, a medical technology, pharmaceutical diagnostics, and digital solutions innovator in U.S., introduced its new electrocardiograph unit, the MAC 3500, in its MAC product line of resting ECG analysis systems. Ideal for basic 12-lead resting ECG analysis, the MAC 3500 system delivers technology you need for reliable and accurate cardiac assessments.

Global ECG Monitoring Systems Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease spread to over 100 countries across the globe, and the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.

COVID-19 affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting the production and demand of drugs, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., Egypt, and others are facing problems with the transportation of drugs from one place to another.

However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the global ECG monitoring systems market. For instance, in May 2020, the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Philips' wearable biosensor (Philips Biosensor BX100) to help manage confirmed and suspected COVID-19 patients in the hospital. The Philips patient deterioration detection system has been upgraded with the next-generation wireless wearable biosensor to enable clinicians to identify risk earlier and improve care for patients in lower-acuity care settings. The initial installation of the system was at the OLVG Hospital in the Netherlands, where it was put to use in order to assist with the triage and clinical surveillance of COVID-19 patients. Such initiatives by the key market player in the management of COVID-19 bolstered the market growth during the pandemic.

Global ECG Monitoring Systems Market Segmentation:

The global ECG monitoring systems market report is segmented into By Equipment Type, By End User, and By Region.

By Equipment Type, the global ECG monitoring systems market is segmented into ECG monitoring equipment, holter monitoring systems, ECG stress testing systems, and event monitoring systems. Out of which, the ECG monitoring equipment is expected to dominate the ECG monitoring systems market during the forecast period and this is due to detect heart problems such as heart disease, heart attack, an enlarged heart, or any abnormal heart rhythms that may cause heart failure.

By End User, the global ECG monitoring systems market is segmented into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, clinics. Out of which, the hospitals is expected to dominate the global ECG monitoring systems market during the forecast period and this is due to the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular disease.

Among all the segmentations, the equipment type has the potential due to the increasing  Cardiac infections this is expected to drive the growth of the segment over the forecast period. For instance, in April 2022, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), reported Cardiac infections account for 6% of the total global disease burden. Around 6.6 million, under-five aged children years of age die each year worldwide; 95 percent of them belong to low-income countries and one third of the total deaths is due to acute respiratory track infection.

Global ECG Monitoring Systems Market Cross Sectional Analysis:
