Cleveland, Ohio - The wireless medical device industry has sustained significant growth in the last decade and is likely to continue to expand in the future because of the increasing demand for patient care and an expansion of wireless electronic devices and networks in hospitals and other clinical settings. Additionally, economic growth, coupled with greater access to healthcare in countries such as China, India, and Brazil, has helped to foster an increase in the use of medical products worldwide. Moreover, within the wireless medical device industry, there has been continuous innovation in the technologies of sensors, implants, and wireless communication, which is increasing the scope of wireless medical technology applications.
The global market for wireless medical devices is expected to show about 25.1% market growth during the next five years. The worldwide market has the potential to expand from $3.6 billion in 2015 to about $11.0 billion by 2020.
The Asian region offers the greatest opportunities for growth, a trend that is expected to continue through 2020. Asia is expected to exhibit growth that exceeds some of the world's most vibrant markets in the Americas and Europe by expanding at a rate of approximately 26.4% annually. Exceptional growth trends are expected to prevail, particularly in China and India.
Europe is expected to experience growth, estimated at 24.7%. The Americas wireless medical device market, led by the U.S., is expected to grow at a good rate in the coming years, while at the same time being one of the world's key regions for innovative developments of state-of-the-art wireless medical technologies. Between 2015 and 2020, demand in the Americas will increase by a rate of about 24.5%. The Middle East and Africa have a small market share but are expected to grow faster than all other regions.
Wireless medical devices represent some of the most profitable and innovative medical technologies. These devices simplify the ability of healthcare professionals to access information on the conditions of individuals receiving care while providing ease of mobility to patients. Wireless technologies are enabling medical practitioners to monitor and provide treatment remotely while patients are in hospitals, medical clinics, ambulances, or home.
The wireless medical device industry offers significant potential, with an expanding global market and huge demand for improved healthcare services driven by an increasingly older population and improved medical insurance coverage. The demand for wireless medical devices is expected to continue to increase in the coming years as innovations in sensor and wireless communications make these devices ever more capable of monitoring changes in the human body and facilitating treatment.
