Electrophysiology involves the study of electrical activity of heart to diagnose and monitor any arrhythmia. Indications for electrophysiology include bradycardia, tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and other arrhythmias.
Statistics:
The global electrophysiology devices market is estimated to account for US$ 14,173.5 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2027.
Global Electrophysiology Devices Market: Drivers
High prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is expected to propel growth of the global electrophysiology devices market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the American Heart Association's Heart and Stroke Statistics 2019 Update, around 48% of all adults in the U.S. suffered from some type of cardiovascular disease in 2016.
Moreover, increasing geriatric population is also expected to boost demand for electrophysiology devices. For instance, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the U.S. geriatric population is expected to reach 77 million by 2034.
Statistics:
North America held dominant position in the global electrophysiology devices market in 2019, accounting for 33.0% share in terms of value, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific, respectively.
