The complete version of the Report will include the impact of the COVID-19, and anticipated change on the future outlook of the industry, by taking into the account the political, economic, social, and technological parameters.
Wearable medical devices comprise of three major segments namely wearable therapeutic devices, wearable monitoring and diagnostic devices, and health and fitness devices. These wearable medical devices are used with or without doctor consultation and are home healthcare products.
Statistics:
The global wearable medical devices market is estimated to account for US$ 29,834.5 Mn in terms of value and is expected to reach US$ 50,898.5 Mn by the end of 2027.
Global Wearable Medical Devices Market: Drivers
High prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to propel growth of the global wearable medical devices market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the study, “Global and regional diabetes prevalence estimates for 2019 and projections for 2030 and 2045: Results from the International Diabetes Federation Diabetes Atlas, 9th edition”, published in the journal Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, in September 2019, 463 million people are expected to suffer from diabetes in 2019 worldwide and the number is expected to reach 578 million by 2030 and 700 million by 2045.
Moreover, increasing geriatric population is also expected to boost demand for wearable medical devices. For instance, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the U.S. geriatric population is expected to reach 77 million by 2034.
Statistics:
Home healthcare held dominant position in the global wearable medical devices market in 2019, accounting for 63.3% share in terms of value, followed by patient monitoring and health and fitness, respectively.
